The equation would be (x+4)+x=18. X stands for the amount of pears Wilma bought, and (x+4) is the amount of pears Tania bought (because she bought four more pounds than Wilma).
(X+4)+x=18
2x+4=18 (now you subtract four from both sides)
2x=14 (to get x by itself, divide both sides by 2)
X=7
Wilma bought 7 pounds of pears :3
Just for future reference always put ^ for exponents. The answer is y-6 though.
(y-4)(y-6) create that trinomial. You can prove that by using the FOIL algorithm
Answer:
i
Step-by-step explanation:
because you can't technically can't find the square root of -1, so it's an imaginary number
It would be 2/10, or 1/5, since two out of the 10 numbers are even. 2/10 simplifies to 1/5, since there is 1 for every 5 numbers.
We could turn this into a percentage by dividing 1 by 5, which gives us 0.2. Then we can multiply by 100 to get 20.
So, our probability of choosing an even number is:
2/10
OR
1/5
OR
20%
