y = -1 + 3/8x
2x - 5y = 6
Substitute the first equation into the second equation, since y is already by itself.
2x - 5(-1 + 3/8x) = 6
2x + 5 - 15/8x = 6
2x - 15/8x = 1
16/8x - 15/8x = 1
1/8x = 1 Multiply 8 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 8
Plug x into either of the equations.
y = -1 + 3/8(8)
y = -1 + 3
y = 2
2(8) - 5y = 6
16 - 5y = 6
-5y = -10
y = 2
(8,2)
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
x didn't change in value, y changed by 9
the distance between the two points is 9
Answer:
What is the cost of 1 hotdog?
Answer: $4.50
How many hotdogs can you buy for $18?
Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If $27 can buy you 6 hot dogs, to find the cost of one, we just divide.
27 divided by 6 = 4.5 ($4.50)
So 1 hotdog costs $4.50
If 1 hotdog is $4.50, and we want to know how much we can buy for $18, then we divide again.
18 divided by 4.5 = 4
So for $18, we can buy 4 hotdogs
Answer:
- p=0.7103 (4-game series)
- p=0.6480 (2-game series)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the random variable equal the the first 4 straight wins. An overall win for the stronger team implies a negative binomial function with the parameters n=4, p=0.6:
#We find probabilities for the different values of i:
Hence, probability of the stronger team winning overall is:
#Define Y as the random variable for winning 2/3 games.:
Hence, probability of the stronger team winning in 2 out 3 game series is 0.6480
The stronger team has a higher chance of winning in a 4-game series(0.7103>0.6480)
