Y=4
the answer is y=4 because you had to subtract 8 from both sides.
Answer:
When 5 winners are randomly selected, the probability that they are all men is 0.003.
Step-by-step explanation:
Among the contestants in a competition are 46 women and 23 men.
Total persons are =
When one winner is chosen, there are 68 people left, when second winner is chosen there are 67 people left and so on.
So, the probability that they are all men is given by:

=
= 0.002999 ≈ 0.003
Therefore, when 5 winners are randomly selected, the probability that they are all men is 0.003.
Simplifying
8.7 = 3.5m + -2.5(5.4 + -6m)
8.7 = 3.5m + (5.4 * -2.5 + -6m * -2.5)
8.7 = 3.5m + (-13.5 + 15m)
Reorder the terms:
8.7 = -13.5 + 3.5m + 15m
Combine like terms: 3.5m + 15m = 18.5m
8.7 = -13.5 + 18.5m
Solving
8.7 = -13.5 + 18.5m
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-18.5m' to each side of the equation.
8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5 + 18.5m + -18.5m
Combine like terms: 18.5m + -18.5m = 0.0
8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5 + 0.0
8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5
Add '-8.7' to each side of the equation.
8.7 + -8.7 + -18.5m = -13.5 + -8.7
Combine like terms: 8.7 + -8.7 = 0.0
0.0 + -18.5m = -13.5 + -8.7
-18.5m = -13.5 + -8.7
Combine like terms: -13.5 + -8.7 = -22.2
-18.5m = -22.2
Divide each side by '-18.5'.
m = 1.2
Simplifying
m = 1.2
Our basis would be 204 pounds. His original weight, 6 week ago, must be
204 + 2(6) = 216 pounds
But, we have to find the number of weeks having known the present weight (204 pounds) and the target weight (189). The linear equation would be

189 = 204 - 2(number of weeks)
Number of weeks = (204-189)/2
Number of weeks = 7.5
The total number of weeks would then be 6 weeks + 7.5 weeks. It would take Omar 1
3 and a half weeks since he started his diet to reach his target weight.
