The error is in the second step they subtracted 3 from both sides but it was a 3x, which you can not do.
Correction.
9x+18+3x=1
12x+18=1
12x=-17
x=-17/12
You can solve <span>9/x-4/y=8 for x or for y but NOT at the same time.
Solving for x: </span><span>9/x-4/y=8 Mult all 3 terms by xy to eliminate the fractions.
9(xy)/x - 4xy/y = 8xy => 9y - 4x = 8xy, or 9y = 4x + 8xy = 4x(1+2y)
then 9y = x [ 4(1+2y) ]
9y
therefore x = ------------
4(1+2y)
Solve for y using a similar approach.

To evaluate the probability that a randomly selected day will be between 28 and 34 minutes we proceed as follows:
P(28<x<34)
First we evaluate the z-score for the above values:
z=(x-σ)/μ
μ=26.7
σ=5.1
when:
x=28
z=(28-26.7)/5.1
z=0.26
P(z<0.26)=0.6026
when x=34
z=(34-26.7)/5.1
z=1.43
P(z<1.43)=0.9236
hence:
P(28<x<34)=0.9236-0.6026=0.321~32.1%

Step-by-step explanation:
X−7<1
Add 7 to both sides.
x−7+7<1+7
x<8
To plot this on a number line, put a circle around 8 and a line going to the left with an arrow at the end.
