Answer:
y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 9 from both sides to cancel it out.
-27=-y/9
/9 /9
-3=-y
We can't have a negative variable, so we divide -1 from both sides.
-3=-y
/-1 /-1\
3=y

Answer:
The answer is b. But you asked for the thought process so...
Step-by-step explanation:
Let speed of the 1st trip x miles / hr. and speed of the 2nd trip 3x / hr.
We know that
Speed = Distance/Time.
Or, Time = Distance/Speed.
So, the time taken to cover a distance of 50 miles on his first trip = 50/x hr.
And the time taken to cover a distance of 300 miles on his later trip = 300/3x hr.
= 100/x hr.
So we can clearly see that his new time compared with the old time was: twice as much.
Have a great day :)
Answer: 0.4 which is choice C
====================================
Work Shown
Focus on the "riverside high school" row only
A = number of twelfth graders = 200
B = number of students = 500
P = probability of picking a twelfth grader
P = A/B
P = 200/500
P = 2/5
P = 0.4
I think it is b
----------------------------------------------
L=(8/3)W = 24 ft. Solving for W, we mult. both sides of this eqn by (3/8), obtaining
W = (3/8)(24 ft) = 9 ft (answer)
