5. 5 = 5 + 5 = 5/10 = 5 1/2 
5.5 = 55/10 = 11/2 = 5 1/2
5.5 = 5 1/2  ⇔ at the same point you'll need to know that 0.5 = 1/2 <u />

Write Algebraically: Thirty less than negative fifteen times a number is greater than 54 more than negative three times a number
Yuri [45]

Answer

-15x - 30 > -3x + 54

Explanation

Let's break this sentence down.

Thirty less than means [whatever goes before] minus 30.

Negative fifteen is -15.

Times a number means multiplying by a number. The number will be a variable. And in this case, the variable will be x.

Is greater than means more than.

Negative three is -3.

Times a number means multiplying by a number (in case you forgot or get confused, I wrote it again). That number will be a variable; x. This is the same number.

Now let's write down the equation.

Let's break both sides of the inequality, meaning the left side of 'greater than' and the right side.

The left side says this; "thirty less than negative fifteen times a number."

So let's write this.

So thirty less is minus 30. You are subtracting from "negative fifteen times a number."

Negative fifteen is -15... times a number is -15x.

So the left side of the inequality is -15x - 30.

The right side says this; "54 more than negative three times a number."

54 more than means adding 54 meaning + 54.

And you are adding 54 to "negative three times a number."

Negative three is -3, times a number is -3x.

So the right side of the inequality is -3x + 54.

So the full inequality is -15x - 30 > -3x + 54.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME. IM STUCK IN A SUMMER SCHOOL AND IF I DONT GET GOOD GRADES ILL GET IN BIG TROUBLE AND IM TOTALLY LO
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

We know that in the box there are:

4 twix

3 kit-kat

Then the total number of candy in the box is:

4 +3 = 7

a)

Here we want to find the probability that we draw two twix.

All the candy has the same probability of being drawn from the box.

So, the probability of getting a twix in the first drawn, is equal to the quotient between the number of twix and the total number of candy in the box, this is:

p = 4/7

Now for the second draw, we do the same, but because we have already drawn one twix before, now the number of twix in the box is 3, and the total number of candy in the box is 6.

this time the probability is:

q = 3/6 = 1/2

The joint probability is the product of the individual probabilities, so here we have

P = p*q = (4/7)*(1/2) =  2/7

b) same reasoning than in the previous case:

For the first bar, the probability is:

p = 3/7

for the second bar, the probability is:

q = 2/6 = 1/3

The joint probability is:

P = p*q = (3/7)*(1/3) = 1/7

c) Suppose that first we draw a twix.

The probability we already know that is:

p = 4/7

Now we want another type, so we need to draw a kit-kat, the probability will be equal to the quotient between the remaining kit-kat bars (3) and the total number of candy in the box (6)

q = 3/6

The joint probability is:

P = p*q = (4/7)*(3/6) = 2/7

But, we also have the case where we first draw a kit-kat and after a twix, so we have a permutation of two, then the probability in this case is:

Probability = 2*P = 2*2/7 = 4/7

Which is the best first step when solving the following system of equations? x + y = 3. 4 x minus y = 7. Multiply the first equa
____ [38]

Answer:

just add the equation and solve it then the value of X could be found then put the value of X and the value of y can be found. Just like in the below

Step-by-step explanation:

X+y=3 ------------ equation 1

4x-y=7 ------------ equation 2

adding equation 1 and 2

X+y=3

+ 4x-y=7

-----------------

5x = 10

X = 10/5

X = 2

putting the value of X in equation 1

or, 2+y=3

or, y = 3-2

Thus, y = 1
