The elimination method is valid for the system of equation because the y term cancels.

The system of equation can be solved using elimination methods.

Therefore,

x - 2y = 3

3x + 2y = 17

Hence,

x + 3x  = 4x

-2y + 2y = 0

3 + 17 = 20

Therefore,

4x = 20

The y term cancels. Therefore, we can solve for x and later solve for y.

Answer:

T = 15 + 0.75c

T = $19.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that T stands for total cost and c stands for number of single cookies purchased, the equation would be:

T = 15 + 0.75c

Therefore, a dozen cookies plus six single cookies would cost:

T = 15 + 0.75(6)

T = 15 + 4.5

T = $19.5

Using it's concept, it is found that there is a 0.6 = 60% probability that the flower is NOT A ROSE.

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, there are 6 + 5 + 4 = 15 flowers, out of which 5 + 4 = 9 are not roses, hence the probability is given by:

p = 9/15 = 0.6 = 60%.

0.6 = 60% probability that the flower is NOT A ROSE.

Answer:

  a) 182.90 m

  b) 203.85 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The relations between trig functions and measures in a right triangle are summarized in the mnemonic SOH CAH TOA. Here, we are given an angle and the side opposite, and we are asked to find the adjacent side and the hypotenuse.

__

The foot of the cliff to the boat is the adjacent side of the angle in our model. So, we can use the relation ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

Solving for the adjacent side, we have ...

  BF = (90 m)/tan(26.2°) ≈ 182.90 m

The boat is about 182.90 meters from the foot of the cliff.

__

The top of the cliff to the boat is the hypotenuse of the triangle we're using to model the situation. This means the applicable relation is ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  BC = (90 m)/sin(26.2°) ≈ 203.85 m

The boat is about 203.85 meters from the top of the cliff.

The graph of the function:

Is the last graph (bottom graph of the second image).  

Here we have the function:

[tex]f(x) = \sqrt{x + 2} - 3[/tex]

Remember that the argument of a square root must be zero or larger, then the minimum of the domain is the value of x such that:

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

Then the function starts at:

[tex]f(-2) = \sqrt{-2 + 2} - 3 = -3[/tex]

Then the graph should start at (-3, 2).

We can also identify another point by evaluating in x = 2.

[tex]f(2) = \sqrt{2 + 2} - 3 =2 - 3 = -1[/tex]

So the function also passes through (2, - 1).

The probability that more than 12 particles occur in the area of a disk under the study is 0.20844.

The number of particles follows a Poisson Distribution.

A Poisson Distribution over a variable X, having a mean λ, has a probability for a random variable x as  [tex]P(X = x) = e^{-\lambda} \frac{\lambda^{x}}{x!}[/tex] .

In the question, x = 12.

λ = 100*0.1 = 10.

To find : P(X > 12)

P(X > 12) = 1 - P(X ≤ 12) = 1 - poissoncdf(10,12)

As to find the probability of a Poisson Distribution P(X ≤ x), for a mean = λ, we use the calculator function poissoncdf(λ,x).

Therefore, P(X > 12) = 1 - 0.79156 = 0.20844.

Therefore, the probability that more than 12 particles occur in the area of a disk under the study is 0.20844.

The value of the equation a + b is 12

The system of equations is given as:

3a + 6b = 45

2a - 2b = 12

Multiply the second equation by 1.5

3a - 3b = 18

Subtract this equation from the first equation to eliminate a

9b = 27

Divide by 9

b = 3

Substitute b = 3 in 2a - 2b = 12

2a - 2*3 = 12

Divide through by 2

a - 3 = 6

Add 3 to both sides

a = 9

So, we have:

a + b = 9 + 3

Evaluate

a + b = 12

Hence, the value of the equation a + b is 12

Using a system of equations, it is found that the price of a student ticket is of $3.49.

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

The variables are given as follows:

Considering the revenues and the number of tickets sold, the equations are given as follows:

From the second equation:

90y = 935 - 100x

y = (935 - 100x)/90

y = 10.39 - 1.11x

Replacing in the first equation:

180x + 110y = 1345.

180x + 110(10.39 - 1.11x) = 1345

57.9x = 202.1.
