Answer

-4y - 67 = y - 17


Step by step explanation

Let y be the unknown number.

-4 times a number minus 67 is equal to 17 less than the number.

The number is y

times means multiplication

-4y - 67 = y - 17

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

<u>Answer:</u>

-4y - 67 = y - 17

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given y to be assumed as the unknown number here in this word problem.

So we will establish the equation step by step.

-4 times a number: the number y is multiplied by -4 to give -4y

minus 67: 67 is subtracted from -4x to give -4y - 67

is equal to 17 less than the number: it means that half of the already constructed equation is equal to y - 17

so the full equation will be:

-4y - 67 = y - 17

Draw a model to represent the ratio 1 to 3. Describe how to use the model to find an equivalent ratio. Please help I'm really st
Gnesinka [82]

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a table with first set of numbers as 1,3. Multiply both the numbers of this set sequentially by natural numbers to get the following table

1   2  3  4    5    6     7    8     9      10......

3  6  9  12  15    18   21   24   27    30......

We see that in each set of numbers the 2nd number is 3 times the first number.

If we plot these sets of numbers on a graph paper, we get a model depicting all the points which satisfy this ration requirement.

1. A weighted coin is biased so that a head is twice as likely to occur as a tail. If the coin is tossed 4 times, what is the pr
ohaa [14]

Answer:

80/81

Step-by-step explanation:

If a head is twice as likely to occur as a tail, then the probability of getting heads is 2/3 and the probability of getting tails is 1/3.

The probability of getting at least 1 head involves 4 scenarios:

1) 1 Head and 3 Tails

2) 2 Heads and 2 Tails

3) 3 Heads and 1 Tail

4) 4 Heads

Instead of calculate all these scenarios, you could calculate the opposite scenario: 4 Tails. The sum of all possible scenarios is 1, so:

P(at least one head) + P(no heads) = 1

Then, P(at least one head) = 1 - P(no heads)

The probability of 4 tails is:

P(no heads) = P(TTTT) = (1/3)(1/3)(1/3)(1/3)=1/81

Then, P(at least one head) = 1 - 1/81=80/81
