Step-by-step explanation:

1.     x= Jacksons Cups   y= Lucius Cups2.       x -  y= 5           6x + 3y = 300Substitution:                                                 6 (y+5) + 3y = 300             6y + 30 + 3y = 300                9y =   270                dived both by 9                         y=30        Sub y for other equation            x - 30 = 5         add 30 to both sides           x = 35        Answer:   (35, 30)     Graphing:   x- y = 56x+ 3y = 300solve both for y y = x-5 6x + 3y = 300minus 6x from both sides the points are in y = mx + b y= 1x -5 y= -2x + 100  I will also leave the ss of the graph in the comments if you cannot see it  My labels for the x-axis is Jacksons cups and y Is luscious cups.  Elimination:x - y = 5 6x + 3y = 300 First I manipulated the equations by the following    - 6 (x - y = 5 )   1(6x  + 3y = 300 )      -6x + 6y = -30        6x + 3y  = 300          The 6 x's cancel  and add the y's and real numbers together           9y = 270           dived both by 9                   y= 30        Sub y for other equation                      x - 30 = 6                add 30 to both sides                x= 30  The points are  (35, 30) The solution is (35,30)They represent how many cups they sold.   35 is Jackson cups and 30 is Lucious's cups

The football team has a total of 50 jerseys. There are 25 ​medium-sized jerseys. What percent of the jerseys are​ medium-sized j
vekshin1

Answer: 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of jerseys = 50

Total number of medium-sized = 25

% of medium - sized jersey = number of medium sized/ total number x 100

that is:

% of medium sized = 25/50 x 100

% of medium sized = 50

Three shipping companies want to compare the mean numbers of deliveries their drivers complete in a day.
Marianna [84]

Answer:

#1 is 10

# 2 is

6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 12 + 14 + 14 = 100/10. The (Mean) = 10

(6- 10) + (7- 10) + (8- 10) + (9- 10) + (10- 10) + (10- 10) + (10- 10) + (12- 10) + (14- 10)

4 + 3 + 2 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 4

= 16/10 = 1 6/10

The (MAD) = 1 6/10

#3 Groups A & B

#4 sorry I can’t figure this out but I did 1/2/3

Perform the addition or subtraction and simplify. (20 points)

You have to find the LCD or least common denominator.
In this case the LCD would be (x-6)(x+5).

Problem: x/ x-6 - 1/x+5

Step 1: multiply x-6 to the numerator and denominator of 1/x+5

1(x-6)/ (x+5)(x-6)

Step 2: multiply x+5 to the numerator and denominator of x/x-6
x(x+5)/ (x+5)(x-6)

After all that, this is how the problem should look now

x(x+5)/ (x-6)(x+5) - 1(x-6)/ (x-6)(x+5)

If you simplify this you get

x²+5x-x+6/ (x-6)(x+5)

If you subtract both 5x-x (like terms) you get

x²+4x+6/ (x-6)(x+5)
which is the answer

A bag contains five white marbles and five black marbles. What is the probability of drawing a white marble, not replacing it, a
Lelu [443]

~ ANSWER=1/2 ~

Simple probability is found by counting all the results which fit requirements and dividing by all possible results.

To find probability of two results in a row, multiply chance of first result by chance of second result.

Since you are replacing the marble before the second draw, we don’t have to figure out the various changes in odds for the different possible first draws. It’s just that simple.

There are 5 white marbles

There are 4 red marbles

There are always 20 marbles in all

5/20*4/20=1/4*1/5=1/20 or 1/2

By coincidence, the same as the chance of drawing the white marble in one draw.
