Correct option is second one that is 3y – 8 = 22

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Need to determine the equation which represents the statement: "The product of a number y and 3, less 8, is equal to 22"

There are four option given.

Lets first create our equation from given.

Product of a number y and 3 = 3 x y = 3y

Product of a number y and 3 less 8 means 3y less 8 = 3y – 8

And as Product of a number y and 3 less 8 is equal to 22

=> 3y – 8 = 22

On comparing our equation with the given option we can conclude that correct option is second one that is 3y – 8 = 22

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) P(FEMALE|APPLE)

apple total = 346

apple/female = 194

194/346 = .56 = 56 %

B) P(APPLE|MALE)

male total = 320

apple male = 152

152/320 = .475 = 47.5%

C) female prefer Microsoft

152:168 = 76:84 = 38:42 = 19:21

Answer:

$\alpha=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a Circle

A circle of radius r and centered on the point (h,k) can be expressed by the equation

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

We are given the equation of a circle as

$3x^2+3y^2-6\alpha x+12y-3\alpha=0$

Note we have corrected it by adding the square to the y. Simplify by 3

$x^2+y^2-2\alpha x+4y-\alpha=0$

Complete squares and rearrange:

$x^2-2\alpha x+y^2+4y=\alpha$

$x^2-2\alpha x+\alpha^2+y^2+4y+4=\alpha+\alpha^2+4$

$(x-\alpha)^2+(y+2)^2=r^2$

We can see that, if r=4, then

$\alpha+\alpha^2+4=16$

Or, equivalently

$\alpha^2+\alpha-12=0$

There are two solutions for $\alpha$ :

$\alpha=-4,\ \alpha=3$

Keeping the positive solution, as required:

$\boxed{\alpha=3}$

Winnie poured 14 cups of water into a rectangular container measuring 13 inches by 7 inches by 6 centimeters.

kow [346]

Max volume = Volume of container = 13 in x 7 in x 6 in = 546 in^3
Part B: 
1 cup = 14.4375 in^3 
14 cups = 14.4375 in^3 * 7 = 202.125 in^3 
Part C: 
Height of water = (202.125 in^3)/(13 in x 7 in) = 2.22 in.
