Answer: 25
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
7(x - y) - 3(2 + 2x)
= 7x - 7y - 6 - 6x
= x - 7y - 6
for x = 3, y = -4
3 - 7(-4) - 6
= 3 + 28 - 6
= 31 - 6
= 25
Answer:
B. Yes, there is reason. The TV audience might not be representative of the population.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question "Do you support new national mileage standards forautomobiles?" is asked to the TV audience.
Therefore those who will voted are the ones who are watching the TV show. We do not know the rate of people who do not watch TV or who do not watch that TV talk show in the population.
Thus the results cannot represent the whole population
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
1. 3y
multiplying 3 and y together gets 3y
2. y-5
5 less implies that we subtract 5 from y
3. y+7
adding 7 to y, self-explanatory
4. 9y
same thing as #1
5. 
quotient of implies division, since number y is listed first, y is the numerator
