Answer:
Exactly one solution

Explanation:
The first step we need to take to find the answer is to find the value of y.

7(y+3)=5y+8
Expand the parentheses
7y+21=5y+8
Subtract both sides by 21
7y+21-21=5y+8-21
7y=5y-13
Subtract both sides by 5y
7y-5y=5y-13-5y
2y=-13
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2=-13/2
y=-6.5

Now, we plug y back into the original equation.

7(y+3)=5y+8
7(-6.5+3)=5(-6.5)+8
Expand the parentheses
-45.5+21=-32.5+8
-24.5=-24.5

Because both sides of the equation is equal and the equation is true, we can conclude that the equation has one solution.

I hope this helps!

The proportion of students in a psychology experiment who could remember an eight-digit number correctly for t minutes was 0.9 −

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The proportion would be 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the function that shows the proportion of students in a psychology experiment who could remember an eight-digit number correctly for t minutes,

$f(t) = 0.9 - 0.4\ln(t)$

If t = 7 minutes,

$f(7) = 0.9 - 0.4\ln(7)=0.9 - 0.77836=0.12164\approx 0.1$

Hence, the proportion that remembered the number for 7 minutes is 0.1 ( approx )
