Since y is less than x by 7 times
so in terms of x we write
x=7y
Answer:
y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this 2 step equation, we need to get y alone. Lets write out the equation
-2y+16=10
Subtract 16 from both sides
-2y-16+16=10-16
Subtract
-2y=-6
divide both sides by -2
-2y/-2=-6/-2
divide
y=3
Lexi needs to buy 18 packages. To find the answer, divide the number of vases she needs, 105, divided by 6 (the vases per package). 106/6 is 17.5. Because you can't buy a half of a package, she would have to buy 18 packages.
Answer:
5 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the formulas for the weights of the two boys:
J's weight = 120 lb + (10 lb/mo)m = D's weight = 150 lb + (4 lb/mo)m
Solve as follows: Subtract 120 lb from both sides:
(10 lb/mo)m = 30 lb + (4 lb/mo)m.
Then: (6 lb/mo)m = 30 lb, and m = (30 lb) / (6 lb/mo) = 5 months
Answer: 0.5143
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of students who are over 21 years old = 30% = 0.3
Probability of students who are under 21 years old = 100% - 30% = 70% = 0.7
Probability of drinking alcohol for over 21 = 80% = 0.8
Probability of not drinking alcohol for over 21 = 100%- 80% = 20% = 0.2
Let the probability of the students who are not over 21, that drink alcohol be p.
Total probability of a college student drinking alcohol = (0.3 × 0.8) + (0.7 × p)
0.6 = (0.3 × 0.8) + (0.7 × p)
0.6 = 0.24 + 0.7p
0.7p = 0.6 - 0.24
0.7p = 0.36
p = 0.36/0.7
p = 0.5143
The probability of the students who are not over 21, that drink alcohol is 0.5143.
