D. (y-3)
I'm assuming that they want you to find the factors of the quadratic expression, which are (y-5)(y-3). (y-5) isn't up there, so (y-3) is the only solution that's really possible.

there are 24 marbles in a bag: 2/16 of the marbles are red, 1/8 of the marbles are blue, 1/4 of the marbles are yellow, 1/3 of t
Roman55 [17]

Answer: 3 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, 6 yellow marbles, 8 black marbles, 4 silver marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

I know these are the correct number of marbles because I set up these numbers as fractions and solved for x.

For examples, 2/16 of the marbles are red. 2/16=x/24

You would do this because we are trying to find the number of marbles that are red out of the 24 marbles.

Next, we would do 24 divided by 16= 1.5 Then 1.5 times 2=3

You would follow this rule for each fraction of marbles in order to find the true number of marbles out of 24.

Solve for x. 1/2x + 3 = 2/3x + 1
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2} x + 3 = \frac{2}{3} x + 1

multiply through by 6 ( the LCM of 2 and 3 ) to clear the fractions

3x + 18 = 4x + 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

18 = x + 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

12 = x

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

(a)Food-12%

9b)Transportation-17%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Year 2000

  • Average Household Income (before taxes)=$44,649
  • Amount Spent on Food =$5,158
  • Amount Spent on Transportation=$7,417

Therefore:

(a)Percentage of the average household income in 2000 was spent on food

=\dfrac{5158}{44649} \times 100\\\\=11.55\%\\\\\approx 12\% $(to the nearest percent.)

(b)Percentage of the average household income in 2000 was spent on transportation

=\dfrac{7,417}{44649} \times 100\\\\=16.6\%\\\\\approx 17\% $(to the nearest percent.)

Please help me thank you
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

-2\frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is simple substitution, \frac{1}{2}(-\frac{1}{5})-\frac{2}{3}(3)=> -\frac{1}{10} - \frac{6}{3}=> -\frac{1}{10} - 2= -2\frac{1}{10}.
