Answer:

x = -2 , y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

5x + 2y = -2                            <em>*4</em>

4x + 3y = 4                             <em>*5</em>

Solving simultaneously,

    20x + 8y = -8 ....eq 1

(-)  20x +15y = 20  ...eq 2

.............................................

-7y = -28

y = -28 / -7

y = 4

  • if y = 4

using equation 2,

20x +15(4) = 20

20x = -40

x = -2

A baseball team has 4 ​pitchers, who only​ pitch, and 16 other​ players, all of whom can play any position other than pitcher. F
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

2,075,673,600 batting orders may occur.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of the first eight batters in the batting order is important. For example, if we exchange Jonathan Schoop with Adam Jones in the lineup, that is a different lineup. So we use the permutations formula to solve this problem.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

First 8 batters

8 players from a set of 16. So

P_{(16,8)} = \frac{16!}{(16 - 8)!} = 518918400

Last batter:

Any of the four pitchers.

How many different batting orders may​ occur?

4*518918400 = 2,075,673,600

2,075,673,600 batting orders may occur.

Given the following information, determine if one of the brands is a better buy. Brand A: 14 ounces for $44. 66 Brand B: 20 ounc
maksim [4K]

Division is one of the basic mathematical operations. The cost of Brand A and B is the same.

<h3>What is division?</h3>

The division is one of the most basic arithmetic operations. It is used to find the number of times a number is been added to itself.

Given to us

Brand A: 14 ounces for $44.66

Brand B: 20 ounces for $63.80

To compare the two brands we will find the cost of one ounce for each brand.

For Brand A,

The cost of 14 ounces is $44.66, therefore,

\text{Cost of one ounce} = \dfrac{\$44.66}{14}\\\\\text{Cost of one ounce} = \$3.19

For Brand B,

The cost of 20 ounces is $63.80, therefore,

\text{Cost of one ounce} = \dfrac{\$63.80}{20}\\\\\text{Cost of one ounce} = \$3.19

From the above two values, we can conclude that the cost of Brand A and B is the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

10000*7%= $700.00
