Answer:
or you could write it as 5(x+Y) ÷ 2a
Step-by-step explanation:
So this is a question that kind of uses spoken words rather than numbers and it involves PEMDAS (if you haven't gotten to PEMDAS yet, don't worry about it, it's ok, it's easy). PEMDAS is simply an acronym for Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract. Its the order in wwhich you do more complicaterd math problems.
Lets break apart the question:
- We have the sum of x and y, we just write that as x+y
- We have that sum multiplied by 5, we have the sum from the step above, now we'll multiply that by 5. 5(x+y) parenthesis means multiply what is outside with what is inside.
- We have the product (multiply) of 2 and a, 2 times a = 2a.
- We divide the x, y, and 5 term with the 2, a term. Take the first part 5(x+y) and divide it by the second part 2a.
Distribute
-12 -6a = -48
Add 12 to isolate -6a
-6a = -36
Divide by -6 on both sides to isolate a
a = 6
Answer:
19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election
Step-by-step explanation:
For each American, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they voted in the previous national election, or they did not. The probability of an American voting in the previous election is independent of other Americans. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
In which is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
And p is the probability of X happening.
42% of Americans voted in the previous national election.
This means that
Three Americans are randomly selected
This means that
What is the probability that none of them voted in the last election
This is P(X = 0).
19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election
80.75 / 8.50 = 9.5
Sean worked 9 and a half hours.
Answer:
x = 9.5y
Step-by-step explanation:
7 lawns = $66.50
1 lawn = $66.50 ÷ 7
= $9.50
You now know that for one lawn mowed, the amount of money earned is $9.50. Thus:
1x = 9.5y
x = 9.5y
