Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
(5y - 3)/4 + 6 = 3y
5y - 3 + 24 = 12y
7y = 21
y = 3
Check.
(5*3 - 3)/4 + 6 = 3*3
(15 - 3)/4 + 6 = 9
12/4 + 6 = 9
3 + 6 = 9
9 = 9
Answer:
21 students pass
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, you can set up the problem into an equation where the variable X would equal the number of students passing. You put X over the total number of students in the class, turning it into a fraction, then set it equal to the fraction 
(which is 75% represented as a fraction).
The fraction can be simplified, because 75 and 100 are both multiples of 25, so after canceling out the 25s you would be left with 
.
Next, you use the process of cross multiplication which is essentially just multiplying the denominators of both fractions (which would be 28 and 4 in this case) to each side of the equation.
The denominators cancel out leaving you with a simple equation to simplify.
Finally, divide both sides by four in order to isolate the variable.
X = 21.
To determine the correct ordered pairs which will agree with the function, we can substitute values to the function and see whether it agree with each other. We do as follows:
<span>(0,1)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^0
</span><span> f(x)=128
</span><span>
(1,64)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^1
</span>f(x) = 64 <--------CORRECT ANSWER<span>
(3,16)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^3
f(x) = 16 <--------CORRECT ANSWER
</span><span>
(8,0.5)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^8
f(x) = 1/2
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
