Answer:

The value of $y=\frac{-1}{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the equation

$5 = 3y +6$

To solve the equation $5 = 3y +6$ using inverse operations,

Subtracting 6 on both sides of the equation,

$5-6 = 3y +6-6$

Simplifying,

$-1 = 3y$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{-1}{3} =\frac{3y}{3}$

$\frac{-1}{3} =y$

Switching both sides

$y=\frac{-1}{3}$

Therefore, the value of $y=\frac{-1}{3}$ .

Solve -1 < x + 1 ≤ 6

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

-2<x≤5

Step-by-step :

-1<x+1≤6 So fisrt what every we do to one side we must do to the other. In this case it's a bit different since we are dealing with inequalities.

-1<x+1≤6 I would start off by isolating x in the middle.

-1<x+1≤6 I subtracted 1 from all three sides.

-1 -1 -1

Now your equation should look like this:

-2<x≤5 Now there is really nothing much we can do here since we were just trying to get x by its self.

Answer : -2<x≤5

Mark’s canoes rents canoes for $20 plus $13 per hour. You do not want to spend more than $150. For how many hours can you afford

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: x ≤ 10

Step-by-step explanation:

20 + 13x ≤ 150

13x ≤ 150 - 20

13x ≤ 130

x ≤ 130 ÷ 13

x ≤ 10

Bad gums may mean a bad heart. Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal diseas

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}$

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Periodontal disease

Event B: Heart attack

Researchers discovered that 82% of people who have suffered a heart attack had periodontal disease, an inflammation of the gums.

This means that $P(A|B) = 0.82$

Only 33% of healthy people have this disease.

This means that $P(A) = 0.33$

Suppose that in a certain community heart attacks are quite rare, occurring with only 15% probability.

This means that $P(B) = 0.15$

If someone has periodontal disease, what is the probability that he or she will have a heart attack

$P(B|A) = \frac{0.15*0.82}{0.33} = 0.3727$

37.27% probability that he or she will have a heart attack.
