Answer:

x=133 y=-25

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll do both ways for you. So let's start with Substitution:

With the sub method, you have to set both equations equal to each other by setting them equal to the same variable. Since there is no coefficient in front of both x's in both equations, that variable will be easiest to solve for.

x + 2y = 83    &    x + 5y = 8

Solve for x.

x = 83 - 2y     &    x = 8 - 5y

Once you have solved for x, set each equation equal to one another and solve for y now.

83 - 2y = 8 - 5y

Isolate all variables to one side:

83 = 8 - 3y

Now subtract the 8 to fully isolate the y variable:

75 = -3y

Divide by -3:

-25 = y   Now that you have your first variable, plug it into one of the original equations and solve for x.

x + 2(-25) = 83

x - 50 = 83

x = 133

Now for the Elimination method. For this method you need to get rid of a variable by either subtracting/adding each equation together. Again, since you can subtract and x from both equations, you will be left with only the y variable to solve:

Put each equation on top of one another and subtract:

  x + 2y = 83

- (x + 5y = 8)

The x's will cancel out:

(x - x) + (2y - 5y) = (83 - 8)

Simplify:

-3y = 75

Solve for y

y = -25

Then, plug y = -25 into one of the original equations:

x + 5(-25) = 8

Solve for x:

x - 125 = 8

x = 133

Hope this helps!

Llana [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{d^2 y}{dt^2} +12\frac{dy}{dt} +32y = 10e^{-2t} where f(x) is replaced by y

Take Laplace on both sides

s^2 Y -s(0)-0 +12s Y-0+32Y = \frac{10}{s+2} \\Y(s^2+12s+32) =  \frac{10}{s+2}\\Y =  \frac{10}{(s+2)(s+4)(s+8)}

We can resolve into partial fraction to get Y = L(y)

Let this equals

\frac{A}{s+2} +\frac{B}{s+4} +\frac{C}{s+8} \\10 = A(s+4)(s+8) + B(s+2)(s+8) +Cs+4)(s+2) \\

Solving we get

s=-9

24C = 10 or C =5/12

s=-2:  A=10/12=5/6

s=-4: B = -5/4

Taking inverse Laplace

y(t) = \frac{-5e^{-4t} }{4} + \frac{5e^{-8t} }{12} +\frac{-5e^{-2t} }{6}

Solve: -7(3+6x)=9(-5x+7)
Ivan

Answer:

x=28

Step-by-step explanation:

-7(3+6x)=9(-5x+7)

-21-42x=-45x+63

-21-42x-(-45x)=63

-21-42x+45x=63

-21+3x=63

3x=63-(-21)

3x=63+21

3x=84

x=84/3

x=28

Suppose that you have eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you have eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1, 2, and 3. The cards are well shuffled. You randomly draw one card.

G = card drawn is green

Y = card drawn is yellow

E = card drawn is even-numbered

List:

Sample space = {G1, G2, G3, G4, G5, Y1, Y2, Y3}

2) P(G) = 5/8

3) P(G/E) = P(GE)/P(E)

GE = {G2, G4}

Hence P(G/E) = 2/5

4) GE = {G2, G4}

P(GE) = 2/8 = 1/4

5) P(G or E) = P(G)+P(E)-P(GE)

= 5/8 + 3/8-2/8 = 3/5

6) No there is common element as G2 and G4

Cannot be mutually exclusive
