-2(5y - 1) - y = -4(y - 3)

- 10y + 2 - y = -4y + 12

- 11y + 2 = -4y + 12

-7y = 10

  y = -10/7

  y = - 1 3/7

A particular beach is eroding at a rate of 4 centimeters per year. A realtor converts this rate to millimeters per day. Which
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

\frac{4cm}{1year}*\frac{10mm}{1cm}*\frac{1year}{365days}

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we are doing unit conversions, we have to remember to make the first ratio and then each successive ratio should be put <em>in such a way</em> that the top and bottom cancels out with each unit and whatever we want, remains.

A simple example would be if we were to just convert from cm to mm. Suppose we want to convert 5 centimeters to millimeters. We can write the ratios is 2 ways:

First:

5cm*\frac{10mm}{1cm}

Second:

5cm*\frac{1cm}{10mm}

The first one is correct since we want mm, mm should be on top and cm should be on bottom form cm and cm to get canceled.

Now, for our problem, we want mm on top and day on bottom. So, cm and year should cancel. Looking at the first choice, the conversion factors are correct & skimming through, we see that

cm and cm cancels (top and bottom), also year and year cancels (top and bottom), it will leave us with mm on top and days on bottom, <em>which is what we want</em>.

First answer choice is right.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

32 mins 50 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hours to read weekly \geq 4

she has read for 45 minutes, so she has 4 hrs - 45 minutes = 3 hrs 15 minutes left

Dividing the time equally = 195 mins / 6

minimum number of minutes to read \geq 32 minutes 50 seconds

Find x, y, and z.<br><br> Multiple choice answers are below!
labwork [276]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is B. x ≈ 4.5, y = 5, z = 9</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We will use the Pythagorean theorem for solving for x, this way:

x² = 6² - 4²

x² = 36 - 16

x² = 20

x = √20

x = 2 √5 = 4.47 ≈ 4.5

2. For solving for y, we will do it this way:

There are only two possible options: y = 5, included in answer B or y = 9 as it is defined on answer C.

If we review it carefully, we will realize that y = 9 is not accurate because as we can see in the graph y + 4 = z and in this specific case, 9 + 4 ≠ 5 but it's true that 5 + 4 = 9.

<u>Because of this reason, the correct answer is B. x ≈ 4.5, y = 5, z = 9</u>
