Elimination:

7x - 3y = 20
5x + 3y = 16
(add)
12x = 36
÷ 12
x = 3

(5 × 3) + 3y = 16
15 + 3y = 16
- 15
3y = 1
÷ 3
y = 1/3

Substitution:

5x + 3y = 16
- 3y
5x = 16 - 3y
÷ 5
x = 3.2 - 0.6y

5(3.2 - 0.6y) + 3y = 16
16 - 3y + 3y = 16
16 = 16
- 16
6y = 0
÷ 6
y = 0

Sorry the substitution messed up for some reason, I'll fix it after I've answered the other question

Answer: Our required probability is 0.167.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 15

Probability of success p = 80% = 0.8

Probability of failure q = 20% = 0.2

We need to find the probability that at least fourteen will work.

So, by Binomial distribution, we get that

$P(X\geq 14)=P(X=14)+P(X=15)\\\\P(X\geq 14)=^{15}C_{14}(0.8)^{14}(0.2)+^{15}C_{15}(0.8)^{15}\\\\P(X\geq 14)=0.167$

Hence, our required probability is 0.167.
