-5(r - 6) + 3(-8 + 8r) = -32

STEP 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
(−5)(r)+(−5)(−6)+(3)(−8)+(3)(8r)=−32 (Distribute)
−5r+30+−24+24r=−32(−5r+24r)+(30+−24)=−32 (Combine Like Terms)
19r+6=−3219r+6=−32

STEP 2: Subtract 6 from both sides.
19r+6−6=−32−619r=−38

STEP 3: Divide both sides by 19.
19r/19 = -38/19
r = -2

FINAL ANSWER: r = -2

Answer:

$36.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so let's first write the equation:

2.59*10 + 3d = 135.97

Now, let's work on isolating d by first simplifying the equation:

25.9 + 3d = 135.97

25.9 + 3d - 25.9 = 135.97 - 25.9

3d = 110.07

3d/3 = 110.07/3

d = 36.69

Okay, now let's check:

2.59*10 + 3*36.69 = 135.97

25.9 + 110.07 = 135.97

135.97 = 135.97

Okay, so so it costs $36.69 per pair of shoe.

In a set of 25 aluminum castings, four castings are defective (D), and the remaining twenty-one are good (G). A quality control

lianna [129]

Answer:

The sample space for selecting the group to test contains 2,300 elementary events.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of N = 25 aluminum castings.

Of these 25 aluminum castings, n₁ = 4 castings are defective (D) and n₂ = 21 are good (G).

It is provided that a quality control inspector randomly selects three of the twenty-five castings without replacement to test.

In mathematics, the procedure to select k items from n distinct items, without replacement, is known as combinations.

The formula to compute the combinations of k items from n is given by the formula:

${n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

Compute the number of samples that are possible as follows:

${25\choose 3}=\frac{25!}{3!\times (25-3)!}$

$=\frac{25\times 24\times 23\times 22!}{3!\times 22!}\\\\=\frac{25\times 24\times 23}{3\times 2\times 1}\\\\=2300$

The sample space for selecting the group to test contains 2,300 elementary events.

Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (6, 2) and a directrix of y = 1

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

eq. of directrix is y-1=0

let (x,y) be any point the parabola.

then\sqrt{ (x-6)^2+(y-2)^2}=\frac{y-1}{(-1)*2}

squaring

x²-12x+36+y²-4y+4=y²-2y+1

x²-12 x+40-1=4y-2y

2y=x²-12x+39=x²-12x+36+3

(x-6)²=2y-3
