All about simulitious equations​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Korolek [52]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

On occasions you will come across two or more unknown quantities, and two or more equations

relating them. These are called simultaneous equations and when asked to solve them you

must find values of the unknowns which satisfy all the given equations at the same time.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The solution of a pair of simultaneous equations

The solution of the pair of simultaneous equations

3x + 2y = 36, and 5x + 4y = 64

is x = 8 and y = 6. This is easily verified by substituting these values into the left-hand sides

to obtain the values on the right. So x = 8, y = 6 satisfy the simultaneous equations.

2. Solving a pair of simultaneous equations

There are many ways of solving simultaneous equations. Perhaps the simplest way is elimination. This is a process which involves removing or eliminating one of the unknowns to leave a

single equation which involves the other unknown. The method is best illustrated by example.

Example

Solve the simultaneous equations 3x + 2y = 36 (1)

5x + 4y = 64 (2) .

Solution

Notice that if we multiply both sides of the first equation by 2 we obtain an equivalent equation

6x + 4y = 72 (3)

Now, if equation (2) is subtracted from equation (3) the terms involving y will be eliminated:

6x + 4y = 72 − (3)

5x + 4y = 64 (2)

x + 0y = 8

If the probability of selecting, without replacement, 2 red marbles from a bag containing only red and blue marbles is 3 55 and
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T = the TOTAL number of marbles in the bag.

We are told that 3 of those marbles are red

P(select a red marble first) = 3/T

Once we've removed the first red marble, there are T-1 marbles remaining and 2 of them are red

So, P(select a red marble second) = 2/(T-1)

Okay, now let's use probability rules to answer the question....

P(select 2 red marbles) = P(select a red marble first AND select a red marble second)

= P(select a red marble first) x P(select a red marble second)

= 3/T x 2/(T-1)

= 6/(T² - T)

We're told that P(select 2 red marbles) = 3/55

So, we can write: 6/(T² - T) = 3/55

Cross multiply to get: 3(T² - T) = (6)(55)

Divide both sides by 3 to get: T² - T = (2)(55)

Evaluate: T² - T = 110

Rearrange: T² - T - 110 = 0

Factor: (T - 11)(T + 10) = 0

So, EITHER T = 11 OR T = -10

Since T cannot be negative, it must be the case that T = 11
