Answer:

y=(7±√89)/-4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=(-b±√b^2 -4ac)/2a

Rewrite given equation in quadratic form so it is -2y-7y+5=0

Then, in formula, sub -2 for a, -7 for b, and 5 for c

y=-(-7)±√(-7)^2 -4(-2)(5)/2(-2)

When you multiply that out you get

7±√49-(-40)/-4

The next step is the answer given above

If you need the answer not in sq rt form, it is y=-4.1085 and y=0.0608

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea. He gives 3/7 of it to her friend. How many gallons of ice tea does Morris have left?

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

$2 \frac{9}{28}$ gallons of ice tea is left with Morris

Step-by-step explanation:

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea. He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea

$2\frac{3}{4}= \frac{2*4+3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}$

He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

To find how many gallons of ice tea does Morris have left , we subtract 3/7 from 11/4

$\frac{11}{4}- \frac{3}{7}$

Make the denominators same

$\frac{11*7}{4*7}- \frac{3*4}{7*4}$

$\frac{77}{28}- \frac{12}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28} = 2 \frac{9}{28}$

Leah has two savings accounts with balances totaling $8,000. She withdrew 15% from one and

DedPeter [7]

Answer:930 Hope this Helps :D

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given problem:

Let the balances of the saving accounts be (x) and (y)

Leah has two savings accounts with balances totaling $8,000

so,

x+y=8000 (1)

She withdrew 15% from one and 40% from the other. If she has $6,350 remaining in the accounts

So, The remaining from the accounts will be (1 - 15%) and ( 1 - 40%)

that will give the decimals: 0.85 and 0.6

so, we can write the following equation:

0.85x+0.6y=6350 (2)

Now, solve the equations (1) and (2) to find (x) and (y)

From equation (1)

y=8000-x (3)

Substitute with (y) from equation (3) into equation (2)

0.85x+0.6*(8000)-x =6350

Now solve the equation

0.85x+0.6*8000-0.6x=6350

0.85x-0.6+4800+6350

0.25x=6350-4800

0.25x=1550

x=6200

Substitute with (x) into equation (3) to find (y)

y=8000-6200=1800

So, the larger account = x = 6200

and the smaller account = y = 1800

Now, we will answer the question, how much money did she withdraw from the account with the larger balance?

so, the answer will be: 15% of x = 0.15 * 6200 = 930

So, the answer will be $930

Question 7 A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once. The number rolled will be recorded as the outcome.

QveST [7]

Answer:

1) $S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$

2) $O=\{1,3,5\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once. The number rolled will be recorded as the outcome.

To find : Give the sample space describing all possible outcomes. Then give all of the outcomes for the event of rolling an odd number. If there is more than one element in the set, separate them with commas ?

Solution :

A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once.

The sample space describing all possible outcomes is given by

$S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$

All of the outcomes for the event of rolling an odd number is given by

$O=\{1,3,5\}$
