Their error is in step 2. They added three to each number in (3y+8) instead of distributing it with multiplication. The correct step would be 9y-24=10y+3

2ft3 of clay was mixed into 7ft3 of soil containing 55% clay. What is the clay content of the mixture?
Veronika [31]

Given:

2 ft³ of clay was mixed into 7 ft³ of soil containing 55% clay.

To find:

Clay content of the mixture.

Solution:

We have,

55% of soil is clay. So,

Clay in soil= 55% of soil

\text{Clay in soil}=\dfrac{55}{100}\times 7

\text{Clay in soil}=\dfrac{385}{100}&#10;

\text{Clay in soil}=3.85&#10;

2 ft³ of clay was mixed into the soil. So, the total clay content of the mixture is

2+3.85=5.85\text{ ft}^3

Therefore, the clay continent in the mixture is 5.85 ft³.

The median number of baskets made by 7 players in a certain basketball game is 5. The range of the number of baskets made by tho
shepuryov [24]
This must be FALSE, because:

7 players x 4(which is the range) = 28 which means that the total number of baskets made is 28.

If the greatest is 8, we must do 28 - 8, which gives us 20. This means that the remaining 6 players (7 - 1 = 6) made a total of 20 baskets.

However, if the fewest is 4 baskets, this means that the remaining 5 players (6 - 1 = 5) must have made a total of 16 baskets (20 - 4 = 16) and that each player must have scored 4 or more baskets each (since 4 was the fewest number of baskets made).

But this is impossible because if the remaining 5 players scored 4 (fewest number possible) each, it would give us 20 (4 x 5). But they should have made 16, or else the total of all the baskets would not be 28 (look back at start).

This means that the statement is impossible and therefore FALSE.

Hope this helped :)
