3r - 8 = 7 + 8r (make rs on 1 side, numbers on other)
5r = -15(divide by 5 now)
r = -3 (<---Answer)

Answer:
w = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
you would do this by re-arranging the equation
6 = 5w-10-w (move w to the other side)
6 = 4w-10 (because 5w-w = 4w)
6+10=4w (move 10 to the other side)
16 = 4w (add 6 and 10)
4 = w (divide both sides by 4)
It would take you 35 minutes.
Since it takes 10 minutes to peel 4 potatoes, you can assume it would take 30 minutes to peel 12 potatoes (mulitiplying both numbers by 3). Then you'd add 5, instead of 10 because you are peeling 2 more potatoes than 12, instead of peeling 4, you'd divide 10 by 2 to get half the time it would take to peel half as many potatoes. Finally, add 30 and 5 to get you final answer of 35.

Answer:
A population of voters contains 40% Republicans and 60% Democrats. It is reported that 30% of the Republicans and 70% of the Democrats favor an election issue. A person chosen at random from this population is found to favor the issue in question. Find the conditional probability that this person is a Democrat.
