Answer:
Probability (bid accepted) = 0.48
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability density is given byF(y)= 1/(b-a)
a=9500
b= 14700
F(y)= 1/(14700-9500) =1/5200=0.00019
Probability (bid accepted)= (12000-9500)÷1/5200
P( bid accepted) = 2500×0.00019=0.475 approximately 0.48
You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

Answer:
y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms to the left
53y-55-(42y)=0
Add all the numbers together, and all the variables
11y-55=0
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right
11y=55
y=55/11
y=5
