After solving simultaneously we found the values for x and y are

2.76 and 5.65 respectively

<h3>Simultaneous Equations</h3>

We have the following two expressions

7x – 2y = 34 --------1

3x + 5y = -3 ---------2

Multiply 1 by eqn 5 and eqn 2 by 2

35x - 10y = 170-------3

6x + 10y = -6 ----------4

subtracting 4 from 3 we have

29 x= 164

divide both sides by 29

x = 164/29

x = 5.65

Put x = 5.65 in eqn 1 to find y

7*5.65 – 2y = 34

39.55 - 2y = 34

39.55-34 = 2y

5.55 = 2y

divide both sides by 2

x = 5.55/2

x = 2.76

Answer:

a. $\frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a. $\textbf{3} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{+} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{4}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $a\frac{x}{y} = a + \frac{x}{y}$

$\therefore 3 + 1\frac{1}{4} = 3 + 1 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= 4 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= \frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\textbf{2} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{-} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{5}}{\textbf{8}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $-c\frac{a}{b} = - c - \frac{a}{b}$

$\therefore 2 - 1\frac{5}{8} = 2 - 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= \frac{8 - 5}{8}$

$= \frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Hence, the answer.

A basketball team is down by 2 points with only a few seconds remaining in the game. There is a 60% chance that the team will be

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning.

A 30% probability of making the 3 point shot and winning.

What should the coach do, go for the 2 point shot or the 3 point shot?

In which case the team has a higher probability of winning?

The team has:

A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning. So, going for the 2 point shot, the team has a 0.6*0.6 = 0.36 = 36% probability of winning.

Going for the 3 point shot, the team has a 30% probability of winning.

This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.
