Y=1/3x-3 Y=-x+5 How do I solve

Mathematics

Since both equations are equal to y, we can just combine them like this:

1/3x-3=-x+5

1/3x=-x+8

4/3x=8 (since x is 1x which is 3/3x)

x=6

Plug x back in:

y=-6+5

y=-1

So x=6 and y=-1

Hope this helped!

Solve for x7(x 2) (x 5)44O -16

babymother [125]

7(x + 2) = 6(x + 5)

7x + 14 = 6x + 30 |subtract 14 from both sides

7x = 6x + 16 |subtract 6x from both sides

x = 16

If 6 pounds of grapes costs $1.89, how much would 15 pounds of grapes cost?

Alja [10]

So divide 1.89 by 6 to see how much would one pound of grape be
1.89/6=0.315
Then multiply 0.315 (price for one pound of grape ) by 15
0.315*15 =4.725 $for 15 pounds of grape

laboratory tests show that the lives of light bulbs are normally distributed with a mean of 750 hours and a standard deviation o

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

0.13591

Step-by-step explanation:

What we do here is find a score of both values;

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

for 825, we have (825-750)/75 = 1

For 900, we have (900-750)/75 = 150/75 = 2

So the probability we want to find is;

P(1<x<2) = P(x<2) - P(x<1)

We use the standard table for this and we arrive at;

P(1<x<2) = 0.13591
