Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows the total number of students as 572 (bottom right cell in the table.)

The number of students who are 17 or older are the students in the two groups: 17-18 and 19-20.

There are 151 students with ages 17-18.

There are 34 students with ages 19-20.

The total of all students 17 or older is 151 + 34 = 185.

The probability of choosing a student age 17 or older is the number of students 17 or older (which is 185) divided by the total number of students (which is 572).

p(17 or older) = 185/572 = 0.3234 = 32.34%

We round 32.34% to the nearest integer to get 32%.

Simplify 3 - (4x - 5) + 6. A) 12x + 21 B) 4x + 14 C) 4x + 4 D) -4x + 14

stepladder [879]

Answer:

D) -4x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the expression

3 - (4x - 5) + 6

Here we are going to open the bracket at first step

as we have a negative sign in front of bracket the signs of the terms inside brackets will be reversed

3-4x+5+6

now we bring the like terms together

3+5+6 - 4x

Here 3, 5, 6 all are constant and hence like

14-4x

3 - (4x - 5) + 6= -4x+14

Hence our answer is -4x+14

Candy and Tim share a paper route. It takes Candy 85 min to deliver all the papers, and it takes Tim 65 min. How long does it ta

RSB [31]

Answer:

The time required to finish the work by both candy and Tim working together = 36.83 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by the candy to finish the work $T_{1}$ = 85 min

Time taken by the Tim to finish the work $T_{2}$ = 65 min

Thus the time taken by both to finish the work = $\frac{T_1 \times\ T_2}{T_1 + T_2}$

Put the values of $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ we get ,

$T_{}$ = $\frac{85 \times\ 65}{85 + 65}$

$T_{}$ = $\frac{221}{6}$

$T_{}$ = 36.83 minute

Thus the time required to finish the work by both candy and Tim working together = 36.83 minute

1. What is the solution to the system below? x+y=5 1x- y=3

Alika [10]

Answer:

(4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=5

x- y=3

Add the equations together to eliminate y

x+y=5

x- y=3

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

2x = 8

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 8/2

x = 4

Now we can find y

x+y = 5

4+y = 5

Subtract 4 from each side

4+y-4 = 5-4

y =1
