Answer:
X = 51
Y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
2 numbers: (Larger) Number 1 is x and Number 2 is y
The equation is x + y = 63
New equation is:
Combine like variables:
Solve:
- 4y + 15 - 15 = 63 - 15
- 4y = 48
Divide 4 from each side:
To find x fill in the variables from the 'x =' equation:
- x = 3y + 15
- x = 3( 12) + 15
- <em><u>x = 51</u></em>
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the rise over run equation
The answers to the questions
There are 2 orange marbles, 3 green marbles, & 5 purple marbles
two consecutives draws <em>without</em> replacement
Orange first, green second
Orange/total = 2/10, or 1/5
green/total - 1 = 3/9, or 1/3
1/5(1/3) = 1/15
There is a 1/15 chance of <em>Orange first, green second</em>
Both marbles are purple
Purple/total = 5/10, or 1/2
Purple/total = 4/9, or <em>44% chance of both being purple</em>
first is purple, the next is anything but purple
purple/total = 1/2, or 50% chance
(everything - purple)/total = 5/10, or 50% chance
1/2(1/2) = 1/4, or 25% chance of <em>first purple, then anything but purple</em>
hope this helps
