Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the left side of the equation.

5(y-2)-2= 2(y+1)-5

5y-10-2= 2(y+1)-5

Now let's solve the right side

5y-10-2= 2y+2-5

5y-12= 2y-3

-2y     -2y

3y-12=-3

   +12 +12

3y = 9

3y/3 = 9/3

y = 3

hope this helps!

A bag contains 6 red apples and 6 yellow apples. A sample of 3 apples is drawn. Find the probability that the sample contains mo
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: 21/44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Bag contains :

6 red apples

6 yellow apples

Number of samples drawn = 3

Probability that sample contains more red than yellow :

Then from the three samples, red = 2 and yellow = 1 or red for all 3

Prob of RRR = (6/12)(5/11)(4/10)= 120 / 1320

Prob RRY = (6/12)(5/11)(6/10)= 150/1320

Prob RYR is (6/12)(6/11)(5/10)= 180/1320

Prob YRR is (6/12)(6/11)(5/10)=180/1320

120/1320 + 150/1320 + 180/1320 +. 180/1320 = 630/1320 =126/264 = 42/88 = 21/44

What does find the constant rate of change mean?
natulia [17]

The change of the cost changes when the pounds of ham changes. When the pounds of ham is 0, it costs 0 dollars. When the pounds of ham is 3, it costs 12 dollars. The cost changes consistently with the pounds of ham. They change together. Every time the pounds of ham goes up by 3, the cost goes up by 12.

In order to take honors-level math, Lisa must have an average of 85 on her math tests. Her scores so far are 85, 70, and 98. Wha
Mila [183]

Answer:

d) 87

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this lets set up the equation

\frac{85+70+98+x}{4} =85\\\frac{253+x}{4} =85

then we multiply 4 on both sides

253+x=340

and subtract 253 on both sides

x=87

to double check take the averages

(87+85+70+98)/4=85
