Let the distance of Judy from intersection is x and distance of Jackie from intersection is y.
We convert the given information to equations, step by step.
Point 1: When Jackie is 1 mile farther from the intersection than Judy.
This means y is 1 mile more than x.
So,
y = 1 + x
Point 2: The distance between them is 2 miles more than Judy’s distance from the intersection.
Distance between is x+ y.
So, x+y is 2 miles more than y.
x+y = y + 2
⇒
x = 2
From point 1 we have:
y = 1 + x = 1+ 2 = 3
So,
Distance of Judy from intersection is 2 miles and distance of Jackie from intersection is 3 miles.
Answer:x>7 or x ≤ -3
Solving the 1st inequality
-6x +14 < -28 --------------- (Collect like terms)
-6x < -28 - 14
-6x < - 42 -------------------- (Divide both sides by -6)
Note: If you decide an inequality expression by a negative value, the inequality sign changes)
-6x/-6 > -42/-6
x > 7
Solving the 2nd inequality
9x + 15 ≤ −12 ----------- (Collect like terms)
9x ≤ −12 - 15
9x ≤ −27 ------------------(Divide both sides by 9)
9
9x/9 ≤ −27/9
x ≤ -3
Bring both results together, we get
x>7 or x ≤ -3
The final result is complex (i.e. can't be combined together).
Step-by-step explanation:
110% of 90 is:
90*1.10 = 99
Given:
6 girls
4 boys
Probability of 1 girl being chosen: 1/6
Probability of 1 boy being chosen: 1/4
Probability of another boy being chosen: 1/3
1/6 = 0.17 x 100% = 17%
1/4 = 0.25 x 100% = 25%
1/3 = 0.33 x 100% = 33%
17% + 25% + 33% = 75%
The probability that exactly one girl and two boys will receive awards is 75%.
