Answer:

To check if the solution is right you substitute.

Step-by-step explanation:

So in this case you put y = - 6

So you substitute the y as - 6

12(5+2y) = - (6-9y)+4y

12(5+ (2 times - 6)) =(6-(9 times - 6)) + (4 times - 6)

12 times (5+-12) = (6- -6) + - 24

12 times - 7 = 12+-24

-84 = - 12

And that's how to check it basically.

Answer:

Plug in your variables value.

Step-by-step explanation:

For your case, plug in -6 into the y slot

12(5+2y)= -(6-9y) +4y

12(5+2x-6)= -(6-9x-6)+4y see if that works!

2 25 divided by 11 10 in fraction

koban [17]

Answer:

$\frac{4}{55}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{25} \div \frac{11}{10}$

$\frac{2}{25} \times \frac{10}{11}$

$\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{2}{11} = \frac{2 \times 2}{5 \times 11}$

$\frac{4}{5 \times 11}$

$= \frac{4}{55}$

In a class of 24 people, the ratio of women to men is 3 to 1. How many women are in the class?

ryzh [129]

Answer:

There are 18 women in the class

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all this is a ratio topic and to solve it one needs to know that ratios are fractions so to solve it we will find first the sum of the fractions which is 3+1 and =4. Fully recognising through the question that the fractions or relation of the women to the men in the classroom is in a 3:1 ratio, we should multiply the fraction with the total number of people in the class which bring forth the result as 18!

Suppose an oligopoly consists of two firms. Firm A lowers price and Firm B responds by lowering its price by the same amount. If

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The profits for firma A and B will decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Oligopoly by definition "is a market structure with a small number of firms, none of which can keep the others from having significant influence. The concentration ratio measures the market share of the largest firms".

If the costs remain the same for both companies and both firms decrease the prices then we will have a decrease of profits, we can see this on the figure attached.

We have an equilibrium price (let's assume X) and when we decrease a price and we have the same level of output the area below the curve would be lower and then we will have less profits for both companies.

The sixth grade art students are making a mosaic using tiles in shapes of right triangles. Each tiles has the leg measures of 5.

Drupady [299]

Given:

Each right triangular tiles has the leg measures of 5.2 cm and 6 cm.

There are 150 tiles in the mosaic.

To find:

The area of the mosaic.

Solution:

We know that, the area of a triangle is:

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times Base\times height$

So, the area of Each right triangular tile is:

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 5.2\times 6$

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 31.2$

$A=15.6$

There are 150 tiles in the mosaic. So, the area of the mosaic is:

$Area=15.6\times 150$

$Area=2340$

Therefore, the total area of the mosaic is 2340 cm ².

About 4/10 of the population has blood type O+. What percent of the population has blood type O+?

fenix001 [56]

If 4/10 of the population have blood type O+, that means 40% of the population have that blood type. To change a fraction to percent, the easiest way is to make the denominator 100. To do this, multiply the whole fraction by 1 (1/1, 2/2, etc). In this case, multiply by 10/10. 4/10 * 10/10 is equal to 40/100. Then, if you have a denominator of 100, the numerator is the percent. Therefore, 40/100 is 40%.
