The simplified form of the expression [5.5(x+6 1/2)-(x+9 1/3)-(19-x)] is 11x/2 + 89/12
<h3>What is the simplified form of the expression</h3>
Given the expression;
5.5(x+6 1/2) - (x+9 1/3) - (19-x)
First, we convert 6 1/2, 9 1/3 and 5.5 to an improper fraction
6 1/2 = 13/2, 9 1/3 = 28/3 and 5.5 = 11/2
So, we have
(11/2)( x + 13/2 ) - ( x + 28/3 ) - ( 19 - x )
Next, we remove the parentheses
11x/2 + 143/4 - x - 28/3 - 19 + x
11x/2 + 143/4 - 28/3 - 19
11x/2 + 317/12 - 19
11x/2 + 89/12
Therefore, the simplified form of the expression [5.5(x+6 1/2)-(x+9 1/3)-(19-x)] is 11x/2 + 89/12.

Answer: 140 female runners
Step-by-step explanation:
First find out the number of runners:
= 42% * 10,000
= 4,200 runners
Then find out the number of female runners:
= 4,200 * 1/3
= 1,400 female runners
Sally finished faster than 90% of the female runners which means that 10% finished faster or at the same time as her.
= 10% * 1,400
= 140 female runners
Recall that the y-intercept is when the function passes the y-axis. This happens when x=0. Therefore, we can find our y-intercept by plugging x=0 into our function and solving for y.
6x + 9y = 18
6(0) + 9y = 18
0 + 9y = 18
9y = 18
y =2
Thus, our y-intercept is when x = 0 and y = 2, or (0,2).
