Answer:
x= -2 and y= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
since x = 2y -8, substitute this in the first equation
Thus, -3(2y-8) + 2y =12
-6y+24+2y=12
-6y+2y=12-24
-4y=-12
y=3
put the value of y in the second equation,
x=2y-8
x=2(3)-8
x=6-8
x=-2
So, x=-2. y=3
To solve this problem, let us recall that the formula for
probability is:
Probability = total number of successful events / total
events
Where in this case, an event is considered to be successful
if the sum is 3 on the pair of six sided dice.
First, let us calculate for the total number of events. There
are 6 numbers per dice, therefore the total number of combinations is:
total events = 6 * 6 = 36
Next, we calculate for the total number of combinations
that result in a sum of 3. We can identify that there are only two cases that
result in sum of 3. That is:
1st case: first dice rolls 1, second dice
rolls 2
2nd case: first dice rolls 2, second dice
rolls 1
Hence, total number of successful events = 2. Therefore the
probability is:
Probability = 2 / 36 = 1 / 18 = 0.0556 = 5.56%
Answer:
the monthly payment would be $86.00
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 pennies, 4 nickels, 4 dimes
-2 pennies, 4 nickels, 3 dimes
-2 pennies, 4 nickels, 2 dimes
And so on. Do you kind of get the idea?
Yes it is.
F1 = k q1 * q2 / r^2
F2 = k *(2*q1) * (4.8 q2) / (7.2 r^2)
Work on F2 for a moment.
F2 = k * 9.6 (q1*q2) / 51.84
F2 = (9.6/ 51.84) * k * q1 * q2 / r^2
Since k * q1 * q2/r^2 is the same in both questions let kq1*q2/r^2 = m
F1 = m
F2 = 0.18 m
So to make it easier F2/F1 = 0.18m / m
F2/ F1 = 0.18 the m's cancel.
And that should be how you do the question.
