-2(3y + 5) = -4

3y + 5 = 2

3y = -3

y = -1

5y = 5(-1) = -5

-2(3y + 5) = -4

Distribute

-6y - 10 = -4

Add

-6y = 6

Divide

y = -1

Multiply

5y = -5

You got it right.

One side of a square is 3x + 2. Which expression represents the perimeter?
MissTica

Your answer would be 12x + 8 because there are 4 sides to a square and they are all 3x + 2, so you would need to multiply 3x + 2 by 4 which you can do by expanding brackets which gives you 4(3x + 2) and thus when you multiply it out you get 12x + 8. I hope this helps!

A survey of shoppers is planned to determine what percentage use credit cards. prior surveys suggest​ 63% of shoppers use credit
Alona [7]
We would need a sample size of 560.

We first calculate the z-score associated. with this level of confidence:
Convert 95% to a decimal:  95% = 95/100 = 0.95
Subtract from 1:  1-0.95 = 0.05
Divide by 2:  0.05/2 = 0.025
Subtract from 1:  1-0.025 = 0.975

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this is associated with a z-score of 1.96.

The margin of error, ME, is given by:
ME=z*\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

We want ME to be 4%; 4% = 4/100 = 0.04.  Substituting this into our equation, as well as our proportion and z-score,
0.04=1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.63(1-0.63)}{n}}&#10;\\&#10;\\\text{Dividing both sides by 1.96,}&#10;\\&#10;\\\frac{0.04}{1.96}=\sqrt{\frac{0.63(0.37)}{n}}&#10;\\&#10;\\\text{Squaring both sides,}&#10;\\&#10;\\(\frac{0.04}{1.96})^2=\frac{0.63(0.37)}{n}&#10;\\&#10;\\\text{Multiplying both sides by n,}&#10;\\&#10;\\n(\frac{0.04}{1.96})^2=0.63(0.37)&#10;\\&#10;\\n(\frac{0.04}{1.96})^2=0.2331&#10;\\&#10;\\\text{Isolating n,}&#10;\\&#10;\\n=\frac{0.2331}{(\frac{0.04}{1.96})^2}=559.67\approx560

Josh made 8 3/4 cups of jello. if he serves it in 1/2 cup servings, how many people can he serve?
juin [17]

Answer: 17 people

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide 8 3/4 and 1/2 and you get 17 1/2

And since the question asks how many people can he serve you use the whole number because its not fair if you give a full serving to a person and half a serving to another.

Emily needs enough Fabric for 3 1/2 hats. Since she has half a hat done. If each bag requires 1 2/7 ft of Fabric, how much fabri
kow [346]

first off let's convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions.

\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{7}{2}} ~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{2}{7}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 7+2}{7}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{9}{7}}

she already did half a hat, so we can say   \cfrac{7}{2}-\cfrac{1}{2}\implies \cfrac{7-1}{2}\implies 3

so she only needs enough fabric to make 3 more full hats, we know each one uses 9/7 ft, so

3\cdot \cfrac{9}{7}\implies \cfrac{27}{7}\implies 3\frac{6}{7}
