Answer:

-7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive property: a(b +c) = a*b +a*c

-2(y-1) = 9

y*(-2) - 1*(-2) = 9

-2y + 2  = 9  {Subtract 2 from each side}

-2y       = 9 - 2

      -2y = 7       {Divide each side by -2}  

         y = 7/-2

y = -7/2

Answer:

<u>First question answer:</u> The limit is 69

<u>Second question answer:</u> The limit is 5


Step-by-step explanation:

For the first limit, plug in x=8 in the expression (9x-3), that's the answer for linear equations and limits.

So we have:

9x-3\\9(8)-3\\72-3\\69

The answer is 69


For the second limit, if we do same thing as the first, we will get division by 0. Also indeterminate form, 0 divided by 0. Thus we would think that the limit does not exist. But if we do some algebra, we can easily simplify it and thus plug in the value x=1 into the simplified expression to get the correct answer. Shown below:

\frac{x^2+8x-9}{x^2-1}\\\frac{(x+9)(x-1)}{(x-1)(x+1)}\\\frac{x+9}{x+1}

<em>Now putting 1 in x gives us the limit:</em>

\frac{x+9}{x+1}\\\frac{1+9}{1+1}=\frac{10}{2}=5

So the answer is 5

5/8 of the staff are male 5/12 of the staff works part time at the aquarium what is the fraction of the staff being female
Goryan [66]
I believe the answer is 3/8. The whole portion of employees, which is translated as 8/8 is deducted by 5/8, which is the population of male employees.
