Can someone help me 3y-20=8y

Mathematics
1 answer:
Bess [88]3 years ago

Objective: Solve 3y - 20 = 8y for y.

Step 1: Collect the y-terms.
To collect the y-terms, you'll need to subtract 3y from both sides.

3y - 20 - 3y = 8y - 3y
             -20 = 5y

Step 2: Isolate y.
Now that there is only one variable term, you must isolate the variable by dividing the term by the coefficient of the variable.

-20 ÷ 5 = 5y ÷ 5
        -4 = y

Answer:
y = -4

Let x represent the worth of the professional basketball player's autograph a year ago. Since his autograph's worth increased by 40% now, $364 is 1.40x. 
 
                                      364 = 1.40x

Solving for x gives x = 260.

Thus, the autograph of the basketball player was worth only $260 last year.

Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1425 referee calls with the resul
Talja [164]

Answer:

CI = (-0.0445, 0.0225)

there is no sufficient evidence to men and women have equal success in challenging calls

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size for men; n1 = 1425

Number of success for men; x1 = 412

Sample size for women; n2 = 739

Number of success for women; x2 = 221

Significance level; α = 0.05

Sample proportion for men;

p1 = x1/n1 = 412/1425

p1 = 0.2891

Sample proportion for women;

p2 = x2/n2 = 221/739

p2 = 0.2991

From tables, z-score at significance level of 0.05 is 1.96.

Formula for margin of error is;

E = z√[(p1(1 - p1)/n1) + (p2(1 - p2)/n2)]

Plugging in the relevant values;

E = 1.96√[(0.2891(1 - 0.2891)/1425) + (0.2991(1 - 0.2991)/1425)]

E = 1.96 × 0.0170687

E = 0.0335

Coordinates of the confidence interval will be;

[(p1 - p2) - E], [(p1 - p2) + E]

[(0.2881 - 0.2991) - 0.0335], [(0.2881 - 0.2991) + 0.0335]

CI = (-0.0445, 0.0225)

This means that the confidence interval contains 0 since it's between (-0.0445 and 0.0225). Thus we can conclude that there is no sufficient evidence to men and women have equal success in challenging calls

the measure of one angle of an isosceles trapezoid is x and the angle opposite it is x+20,what is the value of x​
lakkis [162]

Answer:

X=80

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose the graph will be like this:

Since isosceles trapezoid, red lines are parallel.

X+x+20= 180

2x+20=180

2x=160

X=80
