Answer:

See the figure attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call :

x: positive response

y: negative response

then the score is:

2x - 3y

A career placement test eliminates a profession when a person receives a score of 18 or less, that's represented by the following inequality:

2x - 3y ≤ 18

Solve:7 +42-32-32 = 14.3-2a +7 A = -3 A= 0 A= 3 no solution

madreJ [45]

Answer:

a = 18.15

Step-by-step explanation:

$7+42-32-32=14.3-2a+7$

Combine like terms on the left side of the equation first. Add 7 and 42, then subtract 32 from the answer you get, then subtract 32 from that answer. This is going by order of PEMDAS.

Remember PEMDAS: (numbers 3 & 4 and numbers 5 & 6 are solved from left to right)

Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

$-15=14.3-2a+7$

After combining like terms on the left side, you get -15. Now combine like terms on the right side of the equation by adding 14.3 and 7.

$-15=21.3-2a$

Get -2a alone by subtracting 21.3 from both sides.

$-36.3=-2a$

Divide both sides by -2.

$a=18.15$

In this equation, a should equal $\boxed{18.15}$ .

Evaluate: 6-(2/3)^2 A. 17/3 B. 52/3 C. 49/9 D. 50/9

Komok [63]

Answer:

The correct answer is: "Option [D]".

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi student, let me help you out!

....................................................................................................................................

Let's use the acronym PEMDAS. With the help of this little acronym, we will not make mistakes in the Order of Operations! :)

$\dag\textsf{Acronym \: PEMDAS}$

P=Parentheses,

E=Exponents,

M=Multiplication,

D=Division,

A=Addition,

S=Subtraction.

Now let's start evaluating our expression, which is $\mathsf{6-(\cfrac{2}{3})^2}$

According to PEMDAS, the operation that we should perform is "E-Exponents".

Notice that we have a fraction raised to a power. When this happens, we raise both the numerator (2 in this case) and the denominator (3 in this case) to that power, which is 2. After this we obtain $\mathsf{6-\cfrac{4}{9}}$ .

See, we raised both the numerator and the denominator to the power of 2.

Now what we should do is subtract fractions.

Note that 6 and -4/9 have unlike denominators. First, let's write 6 as a fraction: $\mathrm{\cfrac{6}{1}-\cfrac{4}{9}}$ . Now let's multiply the denominator and the numerator of the first fraction times 9: $\mathrm{\cfrac{54}{9}-\cfrac{4}{9}}$ .

See, now the fractions have the same denominator. All we should do now is subtract the numerators: $\mathrm{\cfrac{50}{9}}$ .

∴, the answer is Option D.

Hope this helped you out, ask in comments if any queries arise.

Best Wishes!

X = measure of each of the legs
"perimeter is 8 more than 2 times one of the legs" ---> P = 2x+8
P = 28 is the given perimeter

So,
P = 2x+8
28 = 2x+8
2x+8 = 28
2x = 20
x = 10

If x = 10, then the two legs add up to x+x = 10+10 = 20
Leaving P-20 = 28-20 = 8 inches left over for the base

You have the correct answer (choice D, 8 inches) though your steps are a bit confusing at some parts. Such as the part where you wrote 2x = 10 twice. I think I know what you were trying to say.
