You would distibute first distribute

6x-10=8

add 10 on both sides

6x=18

Then you divide 6 on both sides to get x by itself so

x=3

Find two numbers if their difference is 16 and their ratio is 5:7.
myrzilka [38]

Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues are:

1. x – y = 16         (so x is the larger number)

2. y / x = 5 / 7

 

rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:

y = (5/7) x

 

combining 1 and 2:

x – (5/7) x = 16

(2/7) x = 16

x = 56

 

y = (5/7) x = 40

 

So the two numbers are 56 and 40.

Suppose a certain drug test is 85% accurate, meaning that if a person is a user, the result is positive 85% of the time, and if
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

29.411 %  of the result is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

This test's sensitivity is low.

Suppose we have 5 drug users and 85% of the test is accurate meaning that 5* 0.85= 4.25 people are drug users which is true.

But if work for the non users than 5% people being drug users means 95 people are non drug users out of the hundred.

And 85 % accuracy would give  95* 0.85= 80.75 which is very high.

And out of the 80.75 * 15%= 12.11 only 12 are positive .

The results give us  5 out of 17  true possibilities

or 5/17 *100= 29.411 %  of the result is true.

Hii help I to lazy to do it
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

3 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the area of the deck

A = 9 1/9 * 3

Changing to an improper fraction

9 1/9 = (9*9+1)/9 = 82/9

A = 82/9 *3 = 82/3

Changing back to  a mixed number

82/3 = 27  1/3

Each can covers 10 m^2

We will need 3 cans
