To solve this system of equations, start by plugging your equation for x wherever x appears in your second equation, giving you (y-3)+3y=13. Now, combine like terms, (y-3)+3y=13 => 4y-3=13, solve for y by adding 3, 4y-3=12 => 4y=16, divide by 4, 4y=16 => y=4. Now that you have your y value, plug it into the equation for x to get the x value, x=y-3=4-3=1. This makes your solution (1,4), answer choice A
Answer: 5 2/3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the scale drawing of an airplane is:
1 inch = 3 meters.
Since the length of the actual plane is 17 meters, the length of the plane in the scale drawing will then be:
= 17/3
= 5 2/3 inches
I’m not sure what e is in your equation. But I think the answer is t=5000 months. Let me know if you need an explanation
Answer:
On average it will take 13 hrs 53 minutes before the van is filled
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we need to do here is to find find the number of defective light bulbs
Using the poisson process, that would be;
λ * p
where λ is the poisson rate of production which is 300 per hour
and p is the probability that the produced bulb is defective = 0.012
So the number of defective bulbs produced within the hour = 0.012 * 300 = 3.6 light bulbs per hour
Now, let X be the time until 50 light bulbs are produced. Then X is a random variable with the parameter (r, λ) = (50, 3.6)
What we need to find however is E(X)
Thus, the expected value of a gamma random variable X with the parameter (x, λ) is;
E(X) = r/λ = 50/3.6 = 13.89
Thus the amount of time it will take before the Can will be filled is 13 hrs 53 minutes
