Let the first digit of the 2-digit number be x and the second digit be y.
Then the ratio (x/y) equals (1/2). Write a formula for y in terms of x.
The tens digit is 2 more than the units digit. Using the letters x and y, write out the proper equation.
Now solve your two equations simultaneously for x and y.
Prob of selected students times prob of selecting boys times prob of selecting 3 boys
total students = 15b + 30g = 45 students
1. 10s/45t = 0.22
2. 15b/45t = 0.33
3. 3b/15b = 0.2
0.22×0.33×0.2=0.0148
1.48%

<span>If the nemesis has "7/8 of her cats plus 2" it can be written like this: 7/8 x + 2 = x, where x is the number of the cats. After that we can solve the equation. x - 7/8 x = 2; 1/8 x = 2; x = 2 : 1/8 = 2 * 8 = 16. Answer: The nemesis has 16 cats.</span>
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1/ x must pass through the origin because when x = 0, y = 0.
So its either B or C.
A positive slope rises to the right ( 1/2 is positive), so its C.
You can also see that the slope of C is 1/2 because it passes through the points (0.0) and (2, 1).
1) The expressions are not equivalent. When you expand and multiply 2(x + 3) it becomes 2x + 6. This is not equal to 3x + 5
2) They are equivalent. Again, expand and multiply the second expression. 2(3n + 4) becomes 6n + 8. This makes both sides equal.
3) They are equivalent. In the parentheses, you are adding 3 y's and a 2. This gives you 3y + 2. Now add the additional 3y that follows the closed parentheses. You'll have 6y + 2. Now both sides are equivalent.
