Mathematics

First, distribute the negative sign and get -y + 7 = 14

then subtract 7 from both sides and get -y = 7

Divide both sides by -1 and get y = -7

Hope this helps :)

A first number plus twice a second number is 1. Twice the first number plus the second totals 14. Find the numbers
poizon [28]

Let's consider the first number to be f and the second number to be s. Based on the information in the problem, we can create the following equations:

f + 2s = 1

2f + s = 14


Now, we can solve the equations through systems of equations. One way of doing this is by multiplying one of the equations so that there is a term in both equations which can be removed by addition or subtraction. In our case, we can multiply the entire first equation by 2 to get:

2f + 4s = 2/tex][tex]2f + s = 14


Now, subtract 2f from both equations to get:

3s = -12

s = -4


Now that we have found s, "plug" it back into an equation to find f:

f + 2(-4) = 1

f - 8 = 1

f = 9


Our answers are s = -4 and f = 9.

The set of life spans of an appliance is normally distributed with a mean Mu = 48 months and a standard deviation Sigma = 8 mont
natita [175]

To solve the problem we must know about Z-Score.

<h3>What is Z-score?</h3>

A Z-score helps us to understand how far is the data from the mean. It is a measure of how many times the data is above or below the mean. It is given by the formula,

Z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma}

Where Z is the Z-score,

X is the data point,

μ is the mean and σ is the standard variable.

The life span of an appliance that has a z-score of –3 is 24 months.

Given to us

  • Mean, μ = 48 months,
  • standard deviation, σ = 8 months,
  • Z-Score = -3

<h3> What is the life span of an appliance?</h3>

The life span of the appliance can be calculated using the Z-score formula,

Z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma}

Substitute the values,

-3 = \dfrac{X- 48}{8}\\\\-3 \times 8 = X - 48\\\\-24+48=X\\\\X = 24\ months

Hence, the life span of an appliance that has a z-score of –3 is 24 months.

An art club sells 42 large candles and 56 small candle price of large candle is $10 the cost is $x a small candles cost $5 and c
balandron [24]

Answer:

Profit = $(700 - 42x - 56y)

Step-by-step explanation:

For large candles, the selling price is $10 and its making cost is $x.

So, by selling a large candle the profit is $(10 - x)

Again for small candles, the selling price is $5 and its making cost is $y.

So, by selling a small candle the profit is $(5 - y)

Therefore, in a sell of 42 large candles and 56 small candles the total profit will be, P = 42 (10 - x) + 56 (5 - y)

⇒ P = 420 - 42x + 280 - 56y {Applying distributive property}

⇒ P = $(700 - 42x - 56y) (Answer)

Ganezh [65]

Answer: 77 - 10 = 67, and the additive inverse of 77 - 10 is 77 + 10. 77 + 10 = 87.

Hope this helps! This question was kind of confusing for me, because I didn’t understand why you said to add 77 - 10… is this is the incorrect answer sorry your question was worded weird
