Answer:

b) 5 (x-3)\\c) 4 x + 3 y-15- 3 y + x\\e) -20 - 3 x + 5 + 8 x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following expression in the question:

5x-15

a)

5 (x + 15)\\=5(x) + 5(15)\\=5x + 75

which is not equivalent to the given expression.

b)

5 (x-3)\\=5(x)-3(5)\\=5x-15

which is equivalent to the given expression

c)

4 x + 3 y-15- 3 y + x\\=4x+x+3y-3y-15\\=5x-15\\=5(x-3)

which is equivalent to the given expression.

d)

-7 y-6 x- 8 y + x\\=-7y-8y-6x+x\\=-15y-5x\\=-5(x+3y)

which is not equivalent to the given expression.

e)

-20 - 3 x + 5 + 8 x\\=-3x+8x-20+5\\=5x-15

which is equivalent to the given expression.

For every 4 gallons of green paint he uses 3 gallons of blue paint. Drag the correct number of each type of paint into the box t
Inga [223]

Answer:

Amount of green color used =

\dfrac{64}{7}\text{ gallons}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Every  4 gallons of green paint is mixed with 3 gallons of blue paint. to make a particular shade.

Ratio of green color to blue paint can be calculated as:

=\dfrac{\text{Amount of green color}}{\text{Amount of blue color}}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{3}

Amount of shade = 16

Amount of green paint = 4x

Amount of blue paint = 3x

Thus, we can write:

4x + 3x = 16\\7x = 16\\\\x = \dfrac{16}{7}

Amount of green color used =

4x = 4\times  \dfrac{16}{7} = \dfrac{64}{7}\text{ gallons}

Amount of blue paint used =

3x = 3\times  \dfrac{16}{7} = \dfrac{48}{7}\text{ gallons}

Consider the characteristics of the graph. Which statement DOES NOT describe the data set?
serg [7]
A, the interquartile range is 10, does not fit.

The interquartile range is found by subtracting the upper quartile and the lower quartile; in a box-and-whisker plot these are the outer edges of the box.  In this case, they are 40 and 20; 40-20 = 20, not 10.
