1) -5y - 9 = - (y - 1)

2) solve the parenthesis of the right side

-5y - 9 = - y + 1

3) add 5y to both sides

5y - 5y - 9 = -y + 5y + 1

- 9 = 4y + 1

4) Subtract 1 from both sides

-9 - 1 = 4y + 1 - 1

-10 = 4y

5) Divide both sides by 4

-10 / 4 = 4y/4

- 2.5 = y

Answer: y = - 2.5

What is the probability of rolling a number greater than or equal to 9 with the sum of two dice, given that at least one of the
olga55 [171]
Conditional probablility P(A/B) = P(A and B) / P(B). Here, A is sum of two dice being greater than or equal to 9 and B is at least one of the dice showing 6. Number of ways two dice faces can sum up to 9 = (3, 6), (4, 5), (4, 6), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6) = 10 ways. Number of ways that at least one of the dice must show 6 = (1, 6), (2, 6), (3, 6), (4, 6), (5, 6), (6, 6), (6, 5), (6, 4), (6, 3), (6, 2), (6, 1) = 11 ways. Number of ways of rolling a number greater than or equal to 9 and at least one of the dice showing 6 = (3, 6), (4, 6), (5, 6), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6) = 7 ways. Probability of rolling a number greater than or equal to 9 given that at least one of the dice must show a 6 = 7 / 11

A 10 2/3 inch long pipe is cut into 8 equal length pieces, how long is each piece​
storchak [24]

Answer:

\frac{4}{3} inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of pipe is  10  2/3rd inches

It is cut into 8 equal pieces

We need to divide total length by 8 to get length of each piece. First, we have to convert mixed number (total length) to improper fraction by using formula shown below:

a\frac{b}{c}=\frac{(a*c)+b}{c}

So,

10\frac{2}{3}=\frac{32}{3}

Each piece length is:

\frac{\frac{32}{3}}{8}\\=\frac{32}{3}*\frac{1}{8}\\=\frac{32}{24}\\=\frac{4}{3}

So, each piece is \frac{4}{3} inches
