Answer:

p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

$10-(8p+3) = 9(2p - 5)$

By distributive property,

$10-8p-3 = 18p - 45$

$7-8p = 18p - 45$

Subtract 7 on both sides,

$-8p = 18p - 52$

Subtract 18p both sides,

$-26p = -52$

Divide both sides by -26

$p=2$

Which is the answer of given equation.

Use distribution.
10 - (8p + 3) = 10 - 8p - 3 = 7 - 8p
9(2p - 5) = 18p - 45

So...
-8p + 7 = 18p - 45
Subtract 7 from both sides
-8p = 18p - 52
Subtract 18p from both sides
-26p = 52
Divide both sides by -26.
p = -2

There's your answer :D

Answer:

Gabe worked 65, Abe worked 62 and Babe worked 69.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Gabe = x

Therefore, Abe worked: x-3 and Babe worked x+4

So,

x+(x-3)+(x+4)=196

3*x+1=196

3*x=195

x=65

Then,

x-3= 62

x+4=69

You’ve observed the following returns on Crash-n-Burn Computer’s stock over the past five years: 14 percent, –9 percent, 16 perc

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a. 9%

b. 0.01445

c. 12.02%

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 5 years

Return rates = 14%, –9%, 16%, 21%, and 3%

a. Arithmetic average return

$A= \frac{14-9+16+21+3}{5} \\A=9.00$

b. Historical variance (to 5 decimal places)

$V= \frac{\sum (X_i-A)^2}{n-1} \\V= \frac{(0.14-0.09)^2+(-0.09-0.09)^2+(0.16-0.09)^2(0.21-0.09)^2(0.03-0.09)^2}{5-1}\\ V=0.01445$

c. Standard deviation.

$s = \sqrt{V} \\s= \sqrt{0.01445}\\s=0.1202 = 12.02\%$

Which equation describes a line that passes through (-6, 8) and is parallel to the line described by y = 2x − 4?

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

hey, there!

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is a point (-6,8) through which a line passes. And is perpendicular to the line y = 2x-4

The equation for point (-6,8) is,

(y-8)= m1(x+6)...........(i)

and given equation is y = 2x-4............(ii)

Now, from equation (ii).

slope (m2)= 2 { as equation (ii) is in the form of y= mx+c where m is a slope}.

Now, For perpendicular,

m1×m2= -1

m1×2= -1

Therefore, m1 = -1/2.

Putting, the value of m1 in equation (i).

(y-8) = -1/2×(x+6)

2(y-8)= -1(x+6)

2y - 16 = -x -6

x+2y-10 = 0......... is the required equation.

Hope it helps...
