5y + 8 = -2
add -8 to both sides
5y + 8 - 8 = -2 - 8
5y + 0 = -10
5y = -10
x = -10/5 = -2

one solution

Correctly factor the expression 15a-6b+36 using the greatest common factors

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

3 ( 5a - 2b + 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = 3 * 5

6 = 2 * 3

36 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

GCF = 3

15a - 6b + 36 = (3* 5 * a) - (3 *2 * b) + (3 * 12)

= 3 ( 5a - 2b + 12)

Each letter of the word "thunderstorm" has been written on a separate slip of paper and put into a box. Find the probability of

xxTIMURxx [149]

SOLUTION

From the question, we want to find the probability of selecting a slip of paper with the letter t on it, then selecting the letter r, with replacement.

This means the probability of selecting t and r.

That is

$P(t)\times P(r)$

There are 12 letters (total outcomes). And there are 2r and 2t.

So probability becomes

$\begin{gathered} \frac{possible\text{ outcome}}{\text{total outcome }} \\ P(t)=\frac{2}{12} \\ P(r)=\frac{2}{12} \\ P(t)\times P(r)=\frac{2}{12}\times\frac{2}{12} \\ =\frac{1}{6}\times\frac{1}{6} \\ =\frac{1}{36} \end{gathered}$

Hence the answer is

$\frac{1}{36}$
