Solution:

Given:

Fact 1 - If a whale has exactly one nostril (also called a blowhole), then that whale has teeth.

Fact 2 - some whales have two nostrils.

From the above statements;

If a whale has teeth, then that whale has exactly one nostril. This is NOT TRUE because there are some whales that have two nostrils.

If a whale has two nostrils, then that whale has teeth. This is also NOT TRUE because there are some whales that have one nostril and have teeth.

If a whale has teeth, then that whale has two nostrils. This is NOT TRUE because if a whale has exactly one nostril, then that whale has teeth.

Therefore, none of the preceding three conclusions follows logically from the two given facts.

Y+9÷2=y-3÷4-(y/3)<br>pls help​
Ann [662]

Answer:

y = - \frac{63}{4} or - 15.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Order of operations.

y + \frac{9}{2} = y - \frac{3}{4} - \frac{y}{3} Subtract y from each side.

y - y + \frac{9}{2} = y - y - \frac{3}{4} - \frac{y}{3}

\frac{9}{2} =  - \frac{3}{4} - \frac{y}{3}   Add \frac{3}{4} to each side

\frac{9}{2} + \frac{3}{4} = - \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} - \frac{y}{3}

\frac{9}{2} + \frac{3}{4} = - \frac{y}{3}    Find the common denominator for \frac{9}{2} and \frac{3}{4}, which is 4

\frac{9}{2} * \frac{2}{2} + \frac{3}{4} = - \frac{y}{3}

\frac{18}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = - \frac{y}{3}

\frac{21}{4} = - \frac{y}{3}   Multiply each side by 3

\frac{21}{4}  * 3 = - \frac{y}{3} * 3

\frac{63}{4} = - y      Divide each side by -1

y = - \frac{63}{4} = - 15 \frac{3}{4}

y = - 15.75

Part of a shape is drawn.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The points of the rotated shape are: (4, 1), (5, 3), (4, 4), (2, 1), (1, 3), (2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the part of the shape we can see and the symmetry, the missing points are:

(-2, -1)

(-1, -3)

(-2, -4)

Rotation 180° about the origin transforms the point (x, y) into (-x, -y). Applying this rule to our figure, we get:

(-4, -1) -> (4, 1)

(-5, -3) -> (5, 3)

(-4, -4) -> (4, 4)

(-2, -1) -> (2, 1)

(-1, -3) -> (1, 3)

(-2, -4) -> (2, 4)
