X and y are the numbers
x is greater than y

x=23

if 3 times x is 5 more than 8 times y, find y

3(x)=5+8(y)
3(23)=5+8y
69=5+8y
minus 5
64=8y
divide by 8
8=y
the smaller number is 8

Answer:

y = 3/4x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Put it in point-slope form:

y - 4 = 3/4(x - -4)

y - 4 = 3/4(x + 4)

y - 4 =3/4x + 3

y = 3/4x + 7

A local high school has both male and female students.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

a. P(male) = 0.4

b. P(no sport and male) = 0.1

c. Unclear question (isn't it the same as b.?)

Step-by-step explanation:

The data below is what I've worked according to, which isn't very clear from the question so the answers are only correct if this is the correct table of data;

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}&No \ Sports&Sports\\Female&10&32\\Male&7&21\end {array}\right]

a.

P(male) = \frac{7 + 21}{70} \\\\ = \frac{28}{70} \\\\ = \frac{2}{5}

b.

Using the tree diagram in the picture;

P(no \ sport \ and \ male) = \frac{2}{5} * \frac{1}{4} \\\\ = \frac{1}{10}
