Mathematics
1 answer:
dimaraw [331]3 years ago

Answer:

19,14

Step-by-step explanation:

x=5+y

x+ y= 33

we will solve using substitution

(5+y) +y= 33

5+y+y=33

5+2y=33

subtract 5 from both sides

2y=28

y=14

We got y now we will find what x is

for this, we will substitute y's value (14) into the first equation

x=5+(14)

x=19

we got x too

PSYCHO15rus [73]

the large bag is 5/6 lb, the smaller bags will be 1/3 lb, so it should be 5/6 ÷ 1/3

\bf \cfrac{5}{6}\div \cfrac{1}{3}\implies \cfrac{5}{\underset{2}{~~\begin{matrix} 6 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}}\cdot \cfrac{~~\begin{matrix} 3 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{5}{2}\implies 2\frac{1}{2}

-2=3(y-2) how do you solve this problem for y​
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

y= 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2=3(y−2)

−2=(3)(y)+(3)(−2)(Distribute)

−2=3y+−6

−2=3y−6

Step 2: Flip the equation.

3y−6=−2

Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.

3y−6+6=−2+6

3y=4

Step 4: Divide both sides by 3.

3y /3 = 4 /3

y= 4/3

Answer:

y= 4/3

HELP ASAP! The number of entertainment websites in 1995 wass 54. By 2004 there were 793 entertainment website..
AleksandrR [38]
<h3>Answer: Choice A. 82 websites per year</h3>

=============================================================

How I got that answer:

We have gone from 54 websites to 793 websites. This is a change of 793-54 = 739 new websites. This is over a timespan of 2004-1995 = 9 years.

Since we have 739 new websites over the course of 9 years, this means the rate of change is 739/9 = 82.1111... where the '1's go on forever. Rounding to the nearest whole number gets us roughly 82 websites a year.

----------

You could use the slope formula to get the job done. This is because the slope represents the rise over run

slope = rise/run

The rise is how much the number of websites have gone up or down. The run is the amount of time that has passed by. So slope = rise/run = 739/9 = 82.111...

In a more written out way, the steps would be

slope = rise/run

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope = (793 - 54)/(2004 - 1995)

slope = 739/9

slope = 82.111....

The price of an item yesterday was $60. Today, the price fell to $42. Find the percentage decrease.
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

-30% or 30% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

What's percentage decrease?

  • Percent decrease is the difference between the initial value and new value, indicating a loss of value.
  • The formula to find percent decrease is \frac{NV-IV}{IV} * 100, where NV = new value and IV = initial value.

How do we solve this problem?

  • We know that the original value was $60, so that represents IV. Also, now that the price is $42, it represents NV.
  • Now, we plug in the values!
  • \frac{42-60}{60} * 100
  • \frac{-18}{60} * 100
  • -\frac{3}{10} * 100
  • -3 * 10
  • -30

Therefore, the answer is 30% decrease.
