Divide both sides by -3

y + 5 = -15/3

Simplify 15/3 to 5

y + 5 = -5

Subtract 5 from both sides

y = -5 - 5

Simplify -5 - 5 to -10

y = -10

<u><em>Answer: y=-10 and -10=y. *The answer should be the negative sign.*</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

divide by -3 both sides of an equation.

-3(y+5)/-3=15/-3

simplify.

y+5=-5

subtract by 5 both sides of an equation.

y+5-5=-5-5

simplify by equation.

5+5=10

y=-10

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

Answer:

a. {(0, 7), (-1, 6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = x^{2} +2x+7\\y=x+7$

subtract the equations

$y = x^{2} +2x+7 \\- \ \ \ \ \ y=x+7\\y - y =x^{2} +2x+7-(x+7)\\0=x^{2} +x\\x = 0 \ and \ x= -1$

for $y = x^{2} +2x+7$ , substitute x = 0

$y = (0)^{2} +2(0)+7\\y = 0 +0+7\\y=7$

for $y = x^{2} +2x+7$ , substitute x = 0

$y = (-1)^{2} +2(-1)+7\\y = 1 -2+7\\y=6$

Is an experimental study

Step-by-step explanation:

In an observational study you don't control any aspect of the investigation you just observe the variables that you determined since the beginning without any intervention.

In this case you are controlling who sees one or the other video, then you are controlling one of the variables that is the type of video each group sees and because of this it is an experimental study. Researchers designed an experiment to prove the null hypothesis they had.
