Answer:

y = 29/4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

3/(y - 5) = 15/(y + 4)

<u>To find the value of y</u>

we have,

3/(y - 5) = 15/(y + 4)

3(y + 4) = 15(y - 5)

(y + 4) = 5(y - 5)     [dividing both sides by 3]

y + 4 = 5y - 25

5y - 25 = y + 4

5y - y = 4 + 25

4y = 29

y = 29/4

Therefore the value of y = 29/4

What is the answer of 7 copies of the sum of 8/5 + 4
kotykmax [81]
To solve (8/5 + 4)7, you first have to add 8/5+4.  But you cannot simply add the too because they have to be in a common denominator 'form'.  To do that, we find a common denominator which is 5.  We then multiply 4/1 by 5.
8/5 + 4/1= 8/5 +20/5.
Now you can solve; 8+20= 28.  You leave the denominator as 5.
You get 28/5 and now you have to multiply it by 7/1.  Another of saying 28/5 is 5 3/5.  So 5 3/5 x 7/1= 39 2/10 (final answer)

Anyone know this Geometry problem?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

ST = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

RT is the sum of RS and ST

Replacing with length you get:

17 + x + 6 = 3x - 56

17 + 6 + 5 = 3x - x

28 = 2x

14 = x

ST = x + 6 = 14 + 6 = 20

A company manager for a tire manufacturer is in charge of making sure there is the least amount of defective tires. If the tire
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a standard normal distribution, (with mean 0 and standard deviation 1), the lower and upper quartiles are located at -0.67448 and +0.67448 respectively. Thus the interquartile range (IQR) is 1.34896.

And the manager decides to reject a tire as underweight if it falls more than 1.5 interquartile ranges below the lower quartile of the specified shipment of tires.

1.5 of the Interquartile range = 1.5 × 1.34896 = 2.02344

1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = (lower quartile) - (1.5 of Interquartile range) = -0.67448 - 2.02344 = -2.69792

The proportion of tires that will fall 1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = P(x < -2.69792) ≈ P(x < -2.70)

Using data from the normal distribution table

P(x < -2.70) = 0.00347 = 0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight

Hope this Helps!!!
