Answer:
x = -2, proven below.
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 7 + 2(4x+1) = 3(x-1) - 4
3x + 7 + 8x + 2 = 3x - 3 - 4
9 + 11x = 3x - 7
16 + 11x = 3x
16 = - 8x
-2 = x
The coefficients are 15 and 85.
the variables are x and y.
85 represents 85 dollars for each x, which is the number of shifts.
15 represents 15 dollars for each y, which is the number of dog walking jobs.
Semi monthly means 2 times per month
assume that pay is at beginning and middle of month (doesn't matter, but makes it easier for me)
so 12 months
2 times per month
12 times 2=24
divide 55000 by number of months
55,000/24=2291.67
so the amount per paycheck, assuming equally distributed amounts throughout the paychecks, is $2291.67
Answer:
First Option 
Step-by-step explanation:
To graphically add two vectors a and b using the -tail and tip-method, you must draw the tail of b at the tip of the vector a. Then you must draw a line that goes from the tail of a to the tip of b. This line represents the sum of
.
In this problem, notice that the tail of the vector w is on the tip of the vector v. The line that joins the tail of v with the tip of w is u.
Therefore we can say that
.
The answer is the first option
Answer:
–0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected value is found by multiplying the probabilities of each roll by the amount won or lost with each roll.
The odd rolls are 1, 3 and 5. The probability of rolling a 1 is 1/6, and the value is 1; this gives us 1/6(1) = 1/6.
The probability of rolling a 3 is 1/6, and the value is 3; this gives us 1/6(3) = 3/6.
The probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6, and the value is 5; this gives us 1/6(5) = 5/6.
Rolling any even number gives us the same value. The probability of rolling an odd number is 3/6, and the value is -4; this gives us 3/6(-4) = -12/6.
Together we have
1/6+3/6+5/6-12/6 = 4/6+5/6-12/6 = 9/6-12/6 = -3/6 = -0.5
