Answer:

y = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

1) add 3 to both sides of your equation to cancel out the -3

end up with: (1/3)y + 14 = (1/2)y

2) multiply both sides of your equation by 2 to cancel out the (1/2)

end up with: (2/3)y + 28 = y

3) subtract (2/3)y from both sides of the equation to cancel out the positive (2/3)y

end up with: 28 = (1/3)y

4) multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to cancel out the (1/3)

end up with: 84 = y

Choose two positive integers a and b, making sure that a<5 and b>80 . The width of a rectangular computer screen is a inch

qwelly [4]

Answer:

Dimensions of the screen are a minimum of 10 inches wide by 8 inches high. The difference between the height and width will be 2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

$Height = H$

$Width = H + a$

$Area = Height x Width$

$b = H * (H + a)$

$b = H^{2} + aH$

$H^{2} + aH > 80$

$H^{2} + aH - 80 > 0$

a<5 means 'a' can be a = 1, 2, 3, 4

Solving for H for each option of 'a' will give values of 'H' using the quadratic formula below

$H = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

As 'a' and 'b' must be positive integers, H and W must be positive integers as well,

$a = 1, H = 8.46, H = -9.46$

$a = 2, H = 8, H = -10$

$a = 3, H = 7.57, H = -10.57$

$a = 4, H = 7.17, H = -11.17$

Based on above possible answers:

$a=2, H=8$

$W = H + a$

$W = 8 + 2$

$W = 10$

Dimensions of the screen are a minimum of 10 inches wide by 8 inches high. The difference between the height and width will be 2 inches

A bag contains 5 white, 3 black, and 2 green balls. Balls are picked at random.

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

look down there

Step-by-step explanation:

First ball:

Probability of drawing a white ball is 5/8

Probability of drawing a black ball is 3/8

Second ball:

This depends on the first ball drawn, lets say you drew a white ball initially, 4 white balls are left out of 7 balls in total. The probability of a white ball in the second pick is 4/7.

Total probability of drawing two white balls is 5/8*4/7 (since they are independent events).

If you picked a black ball initially, picking another black ball would have a probability of 2/7, on similar grounds , total prob for 2 blacks would be 3/8*2/7.

The probability that you pick 2 balls of same color is (5/14 + 3/28) = 13/28. (Since they are mutually exclusive events)

f(-3) would be 36.

When looking at synthetic division, the numbers across the top represent the coefficients of x^2, x and the constant in that order. Therefore, the equation is as follows.

2x^2 - 5x + 3

Now we can put -3 into the equation and solve.

2(-3)^2 - 5(-3) + 3

2(9) + 15 + 3

18 + 15 + 3
