Your goal is to isolate y

To begin isolating y, perform the opposite operation by subtracting 15 on both sides of the equation

4y = -5y - 6

Perform the opposite operation by adding 5y on both sides of the equation

9y = -6

Perform the opposite operation by dividing both sides of the equation by 9

y=y= -\frac{1}{3}

First off, you need to have your ys on the same side. Here's how to do it:
4y + 15 = -5y + 9
4y + 5y = 9 - 15 (once a number goes to the other side, it changes its sign)
9y = -6
y = -6/9
y = -2/3

The correct answer is B. -2/3

180 students in a tenth grade high school class take a survey about which video game consoles they own.
Fantom [35]

Answer:

P(A) = 44.44%

P(B) = 50%

P(B|A) = 37.5%

P(B|A) different from P(B).

A and B are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a total of 180 students, and 80 of them have a Playstation, we have that P(A) = 80/180 = 0.4444 = 44.44%

If we have 90 students that have a Xbox, we have that P(B) = 90/180 = 0.5 = 50%

If we have 30 students that have both consoles, we have that P(A and B) = 30/180 = 0.1667 = 16.67%

To find P(B|A), we will find for a student that has an Xbox inside the group of students that has a Playstation, that is, we have 30 students in a total of 80 students, so P(B|A) = 30/80 = 0.375 = 37.5%

P(B|A) is different from P(B), the first is 37.5% and the second is 50%, so events A and B are independent events.

Which expression is 8y - 5x + 13y equivalent to after being simplified?
Thepotemich [5.8K]
You combine like terms like 8y+13y which gives you 21y and don't forget the -5x so your simplified equation would end up being A. 21 - 5x
