The first thing you should do in this case is to write the expression correctly:
- (1/9) y + (1/3)
Now, we take out common factor (1/9) obtaining:
1/9 (-y + 3)
Let's check:
1/9 (-y + 3)
-1/9y + 3/9
-1/9y + 1/3
OK
Answer:
An expression equivalent is:
1/9 (-y + 3)
Answer: A. $16.13
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students = 82+74+96+99 =351
Sum of earnings of 82 seniors = $26.75 x 82= $2193.5
Sum of earnings of 74 juniors = $12.25 x 74 = $906.5
Sum of earnings of 96 sophomores = $15.50 x 96 = $1488
Sum of earnings of 99 freshmen = $10.85 x 99 = $1074.15
Total earnings = $2193.5 + $906.5+ $1488 +$1074.15
= $5662.15
(Total earnings) ÷ (Total students )
= $5662.15÷ 351
= $16.13
Answer: a) Georgia, b) 120 words
Step-by-step explanation:
We can calculate how many words they each wrote by multiplying their time and the rate at which they write words.
Richard: 45*16 = 720 words total
Georgia: 70*12 = 840 words total.
Therefore, Georgia wrote 120 more words.
The y intercept is (0, 1)
Answer:
x=17, x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Rearrange this Absolute Value Equation
Absolute value equalitiy entered
|x-5|-2 = 10
Another term is moved / added to the right hand side.
|x-5| = 12
Step 2 :
Clear the Absolute Value Bars
Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.
The Absolute Value term is |x-5|
For the Negative case we'll use -(x-5)
For the Positive case we'll use (x-5)
Step 3 :
Solve the Negative Case
-(x-5) = 12
Multiply
-x+5 = 12
Rearrange and Add up
-x = 7
Multiply both sides by (-1)
x = -7
Which is the solution for the Negative Case
Step 4 :
Solve the Positive Case
(x-5) = 12
Rearrange and Add up
x = 17
Which is the solution for the Positive Case
Step 5 :
Wrap up the solution
x=-7
x=17
