The variation from x to y is an illustration of a direct variation

The value of x when y = 2 is -19/7

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The variation is a direct variation.

So, we have:

x = ky

Where k represents the constant of variation

Make k the subject

k = x/y

This gives

x1/y1 = x2/y2

So, we have:

-19/14 = x/2

Multiply both sides by 2

x = -19/14 * 2

Evaluate

x = -19/7

Hence, the value of x when y = 2 is -19/7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ BSR + ∠ TSB = ∠ TSR , substitute values

2x + 17 + 5x + 15 = 102 , that is

7x + 32 = 102 ( subtract 32 from both sides )

7x = 70 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 10 → B

A company is bidding on two projects, A and B. The probability that the company wins project A is 0.40 and the probability that

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Probability that the company wins project A or project B is 0.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a company is bidding on two projects, A and B. The probability that the company wins project A is 0.40 and the probability that the company wins project B is 0.25.

Also, Winning project A and winning project B are independent events.

Let the Probability of winning project A = P(A) = 0.40

Probability of winning project B = P(B) = 0.25

Now, as we know that ;

Probability that the company wins project A or project B = $P(A \bigcup B)$

$P(A \bigcup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \bigcap B)$

So, we have to find the value of Probability of winning project A and B, i.e;

$P(A \bigcap B)$

Since, we are given that Winning project A and winning project B are independent events which means when this condition is given then;

$P(A \bigcap B) = P(A) \times P(B)$

= 0.40 $\times$ 0.25 = 0.10

Now, Probability that the company wins project A or project B is given by;

$P(A \bigcup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \bigcap B)$

= 0.40 + 0.25 - 0.10

= 0.65 - 0.10 = 0.55

Hence, probability that the company wins project A or project B is 0.50.

Can someone explain this? (This is algebra 1)

12345 [234]

Answer:

x=12

Triangle abc and Def are congruent but different sizes. The original triangle has side values of 2, 6 and 5. Then the shape is dilated by an unknown factor, giving it the side lengths of 4, x, and 10. Looking at the increase in side lengths we see that theres an increase of 2 to 4, or multiplying by 2 and an increase from 5 to 10, or multiplying by to. So now that we know there was a dilation of 2, we multiply 6 by 2 to find 12
