Answer:-5
Step-by-step explanation:
-6n-6+1+6n
Subtract -6 from 1 which equals -5
Cancel the -6n+6n
And there you have it
-5
Answer:
11 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Setting up a system of equations and using the substitution method will give you the number of hours used by each tap. Let a = time for tap A and b = time for tap B:
a + b = 12 (A and B fill a tank in 12 hours)
a = b - 10 (tap A takes 10 hours less than tap B)
Substitute 'b - 10' for 'a' in the first equation:
b - 10 + b = 12
Combine like terms: 2b - 10 = 12
Add 10 to both sides: 2b - 10 + 10 = 12 + 10 or 2b = 22
Divide by 2: 2b/2 = 22/2
Solve for b: b = 11 hours
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of getting the newspaper on his front porch = P(A) = 0.64
Probability of finding the newspaper on his lawn = P(B) =? (We don't know, this is what we have to find.)
Total probability = 1
Formula, P(A) + P(B) = 1
Let's put all values in this formula,
0.64 + P(B) = 1
P(B) = 1 - 0.64
P(B) = 0.36
Thus, the probablity that Mr. Johnson finds his newspaper on his lawn is 0.36 or 36%.
-1/8 because Yu can use rise over run
