Answer:
y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
8y-5y-2=16
8y-5y=16+2
3y=18
y=18/3
y=6
There would be 7 more weeks til the fourth of July 7*7=49
Fraction are ratio of two integers. It will take Amen 20 days to do the task alone
<h3>Proporions and fractions</h3>
From the given question, we have the following information
Let the number of days Amen can take to complete a task be x
If Payson is thrice as fast as Amen at completing a task, then the number of das Payson takes will be 3x
If they both pick up a task together, and complete it in 5 days, then;
1/x + 1/3x = 1/5
Find the LCM
3+1/3x = 1/5
4/3x = 1/5
Cross multiply
3x = 20
Determine the time taken by Amen:
x =20/3
This shows that it will take Amen 20 days to do the task alone

The probability of picking a red marble three times in a row with replacement is:
number of red marbles divided by total number of marbles cubed...
(6/10)^3=27/125
The above is the theoretical probability...
From the chart we see that three reds in a row happened twice in twenty-five trials so the experimental probability is:
2/25
The experimental probability about 0.14 less than theoretically expected...
