Answer:
2y - 15
Step-by-step explanation:
well 15 LESS than TWICE a number. okay so let’s start off by making a variable for the unknown number.... y. the variable is y. so now we have to think, TWICE that number, but we don’t know the number.
Now that we have the variable and we know it has to be doubled, let’s start off making the first half... we can out that into 2y. which is 2 multiplied by the unknown number.
now that we have the first half done, we have to take the 15 less. Less can mean or subtract in this kind of situation. but for this certain scenario, it will be subtraction. so the equation would be 2y - 15.
Answer:
y= -2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
first find the slope=-2
determine one point like(0,3)
then use formula
y-3=-2x
y= -2x+3
The input is known as x and the output is known as y in math.
So you’re stating that we’re making the equation equal the output, y, and we’re adding based off of the word “more”. Now that we know we’re adding, we have to find what we are adding together. We are adding x and 11 is that it equals y. Note that x and y could be many different variables and values.
Y= x+11
Answer:
a.) The sum of the weights of the two in insects is 0.0031 grams. (0.0031 grams)
b.) The fly is 0.0013 grams heavier than the gnat. (0.0013 grams)
Step-by-step explanation:
2.2 * 10^-3 = 2.2 * 1/1000 which is 2.2/1000.
9 * 10^-4 = 9 * 1/10000 = 9/10000
To add 9/10000 to 2.2/1000 we have to find the common denominator, which will be 10000.
So we do:
2.2/1000 * 10/10 = 22/10000
9/10000 + 22/10000 = 31/10000 = 0.0031.
The sum of the weights of the two in insects is 0.0031 grams.
To find how much heavier the fly is than the gnat we do:
22/10000 - 9/10000 = 13/10000 = 0.0013
The fly is 0.0013 grams heavier than the gnat.
