Answer:

y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

1/3(2y+6)=y+4

We are required to solve for the value of X

First, we open the brackets;

(2/3)y + 2 = y + 4

Combining the like terms

(2/3)y - y = 4-2

Solving for y

(-1/3)y = 2

-y = 6

y = -6

Hence, the value of y is -6

Answer:

The written form would be "Nine more than three times a number is greater than -18.

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph it, you must first solve for x.

3x + 9 > -18

3x > -27

x > -9

Now we can graph this by putting an open dot at -9 and then drawing an arrow to the right.

Answer:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a 3"

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on a number less than 2 "

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutually exclusive means the events will have no intersection.

Let's look at your first choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on an even number"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on an even number would be 2 or 4.

There is an intersection (they contain a common element), the 4.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your second choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a number greater than 3"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on a number greater than 3 would be just 4.

There is an intersection; they both contain 4.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your third choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a 3"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on 3 would just be 3.

There is no common elements in the lists listed. These events have no intersection.

These events are mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your fourth choice:

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on an odd number"

Landing on a unshaded portion would be 2 or 3.

Landing on an odd number would be 1 or 3.

There is an intersection; they both have 3 in common.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your fifth choice:

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on a number less than 2 "

Landing on an unshaded portion would 2 or 3.

Landing on a number less than 2 would be 1.

There is no intersection.

These events are mutually exclusive.

Create an equation that describes the greatest horizontal length, H, in terms of the greatest vertical length, V.

marishachu [46]

The equation that describes the greatest horizontal length, H, in terms of the greatest vertical length, V is H = 2V + 3.

<h3>How to compute the equation?</h3>

Your information is incomplete. Therefore, an overview will be given.

Let's assume that the value of the horizontal length is 3 plus twice the value of the the vertical length. This will be:

H = (2 × V) + 3

H = 2V + 3

In conclusion, the equation is H = 2V + 3.
