Given that 4000 items are checked in one month, let the number of detective items be represented as y.
Quality control finds on average that 0.026% of the items in the factory are detective. This implies that

When 4000 items are checked, we have the number of detective items to be evaluated as

Hence, the number of detective items is 1.04.
Answer:
456
Step-by-step explanation:
12x-4y=16
Isolate Y:
Subtract 12x from both sides
-4y=-12x+16
Divide by -4
y=3x-4
Therefore the slope is 3
Answer:
19
----- = x
40-3a
Step-by-step explanation:
3(ax + 9) = -4 (-2 - 10x)
Distribute
3ax +27 = 8+40x
Subtract 3ax from each side
3ax-3ax +27 = 8+40x-3ax
27 = = 8+40x-3ax
Subtract 8 from each side
27-8 = 8-8+40x-3ax
19 = 40x-3ax
Factor an x on the right side
19 = x(40-3a)
Divide each side by 40-3a
19/(40-3a) = x(40-3a)/(40-3a)
19
----- = x
40-3a
