solving systems by substitution

how would you you find the answer for
-5x + y = -2
-3x+6y=-12 ? having some issues with how to this​

Answers

Answer:

  (x, y) = (0, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving by substitution, you usually want to find an expression for one of the variables in terms of the other. So, the first thing you look for is an equation that has a coefficient of 1 or -1 on one of the variables. Recognizing that the second equation's terms all have a common factor of 3, you basically have two choices.

Substitute for y

Using equation 1, you can write an expression for y:

  y = 5x -2 . . . . . . add 5x to both sides

Then substituting this into the original equation 2, you have ...

  -3x +6(5x -2) = -12

  27x -12 = -12 . . . . . . . simplify

  27x = 0 . . . . . . . . . add 12

  x = 0 . . . . . . . . .  divide by 27

  y = 5(0) -2 = -2 . . . . find y using the expression for substitution

The solution is (x, y) = (0, -2).

__

Substitute for x

If you decide you'd rather substitute for x, you can solve the second equation easily for x.

  -3x +6y = -12

  x -2y = 4 . . . . . . divide by -3

  x = 2y +4 . . . . . . add 2y

Substituting for x in the first equation gives ...

  -5(2y +4) +y = -2 . . . . substitute for x

  -9y -20 = -2 . . . . . . . simplify

  -9y = 18 . . . . . . . . .  add 20

  y = -2 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -9

  x = 2(-2) +4 = 0 . . . . find x using the expression for substitution

The solution is (x, y) = (0, -2).

Additional comment

In some cases, there are no variables that have a coefficient of ±1, so you just need to "bite the bullet" and deal with the resulting fractions.

Example:

  solve for y: -5x +2y = -2

     2y = 5x -2

     y = 5/2x -1 . . . . expression used to substitute for y

Of course, you can multiply the equation after substitution by 2 to eliminate fractions, or just work the problem as is. The point of looking for coefficients of ±1 is to avoid having to do arithmetic with fractions. It can help avoid errors to work with integers, but ultimately the method is the same regardless of the form of the numbers.

__

You don't always have to substitute for the "bare" variable. Sometimes it can save steps to substitute for expressions instead of variables. If our system of equations were ...

-5x +2y = -2-3x +6y = -12

You can substitute into the second equation for (2y). In that case, the second equation becomes ...

  -3x +3(2y) = -12

  -3x +3(5x-2) = -12 . . . . . . where 2y = 5x -2

Grasshoppers are distributed at random in a large field according to a Poisson process with parameter a 5 2 per square yard. How large should the radius R of a circular sampling region be taken so that the probability of finding at least one in the region equals 0.99?

Answers

In this question, the Poisson distribution is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Parameter of 5.2 per square yard:

This means that [tex]\mu = 5.2r[/tex], in which r is the radius.

How large should the radius R of a circular sampling region be taken so that the probability of finding at least one in the region equals 0.99?

We want:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 0.99[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01[/tex]

We have that:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-5.2r}*(5.2r)^{0}}{(0)!} = e^{-5.2r}[/tex]

Then

[tex]e^{-5.2r} = 0.01[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-5.2r}} = \ln{0.01}[/tex]

[tex]-5.2r = \ln{0.01}[/tex]

[tex]r = -\frac{\ln{0.01}}{5.2}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.89[/tex]

Thus, the radius should be of at least 0.89.

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y = 6/5x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points so we can find the slope

(-5,-7) and (5,5)

The slope is

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( 5- -7)/( 5 - -5)

   = (5+7)/(5+5)

    = 12/10

   = 6/5

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b

y = 6/5x+b

Using the point (5,5)

5 = 6/5(5)+b

5=6+b

b=-1

y = 6/5x-1

Assume that two marbles are drawn without replacement from a box with 1 blue, 3 white, 2 green, and 2 red marbles. Find the probability that the first marble is white and the second marble is blue.

Answers

Answer:

3/56

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcome to the number of total outcome.

Given that two marbles are drawn without replacement from a box with 1 blue, 3 white, 2 green, and 2 red marbles.

The total number of marbles in the box

= 1 + 3 + 2 + 2

= 8 marbles

The probability that the first marble is white and the second marble is blue

= 3/8 * 1/7

= 3/56

The probability that a student was accepted is 5.0% since option  b be the correct answer.

Probability

Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1,

How to find probability?

We have to find out the probability of the selection of a student applied for the business program.

We know that, Probability= Total number of events occurred÷ Total number of possible outcomes/events

So, Probability that a student applying to the business program got selected= No of accepted students for business program÷Total number of students applied for business program=65÷100=0.65For converting a number into percentage we multiply the number by 100 that is 0.65*100=65%So, probability that a student applying for business program gets selected is 65%.

bacteria left alive?
4500 = 75,000 e-0.1733t

Answers

Answer:

16.23 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the number of hours that have passed ; we have to solve for t on the equation ;

4500 = 75,000 e^-0.1733t

Divide both sides by 75000

4500/75000 = e^-0.1733t

0.06 = e^-0.1733t

Take the In of both sides ;

In(0.06) = - 0.1733t

-2.813410 = - 0.1733t

Divide both sides by - 0.1733

t = 16.23 hours

"Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 12."

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

To solve for 'x', we would have to use inverse operations. We would first have to add four to both sides to undo the negative four. Addition is the opposite of subtraction. We would then divide by 2 to isolate 'x'. Division is the opposite of multiplication.

We can rewrite the formula so that x is in feet. Equating the new formula to 8.743 PSI, we have ...

  8.743 = 14.7e^(-0.21x/5280)

Dividing by 14.7 and taking natural logs, we have ...

  ln(8.743/14.7) = -0.21x/5280

Multiplying by the inverse of the coefficient of x gives ...

  x = 5280·ln(8.743/14.7)/-0.21 ≈ 13064.0806

The peak of the mountain is about 13,064 feet high.
