Answer:

\frac{3}{5}x - 21

Step-by-step explanation

Three-fifths of a number means \frac{3}{5}x and 21 less than that number means \frac{3}{5} x - 21.

Answer:

16.7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are initially 24 + 15 + 8 = 47 pencils in the bag.

Take a pencil out of this bag of 47 pencils. 15 out of the 47 pencils blue. Let A represent the event of getting a blue pencil on the first pick. The probability of getting a blue pencil is:

\displaystyle P(A) = \frac{15}{47}.

There are now 47 - 1 = 46 pencils left in the bag. However, given that the first pencil removed from the bag is blue, the number of red pencils in the bag will still be 24. Take another pencil out of this bag of 46 pencils. Let B represent the event of getting a red pencil on the second pick. The possibility that the second pencil is red given that the first pencil is blue will be:

\displaystyle P(B|A) = \frac{24}{46}.

The question is asking for the possibility that the first pencil is blue and the second pencil is red. That is:

\displaystyle P(A\cap B) = P(A) \cdot P(B|A) = \frac{15}{47}\times \frac{24}{46} = 0.166512 \approx 16.7\%.

Smallville High School scored more than 30 points in their last football game entirely from safeties and field goals. (In
Reika [66]

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. The inequality for this scenario in standard form is 2x + 3y > 30.

<h3>What are inequalities?</h3>

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. Also, it helps us to compare the non-equal expressions so that an equation can be formed.

It is mostly denoted by the symbol <, >, ≤, and ≥.

Let the safety counts be represented by x, while the field goal count is represented by y.

Part A: The inequality for this scenario in standard form.

2x + 3y > 30

Part B: The inequality in slope-intercept form.

2x + 3y > 30

3y > 30 - 2x

y > 10 - (2/3)x

y < (2/3)x - 10

PartC: The inequality is represented below.

Determine if y varies directly with x. Give the constant of variation, when appropriate. (picture below)
maxonik [38]

Based on the given variation, y does not vary directly with x and the constant of variation are 8, 3.2 and 1.25 respectively.

<h3>Variation</h3>

y = k × x

where,

k = constant of proportionality

y = -40

x = -5

y = k × x

-40 = k × -5

-40 = -5k

k = -40/-5

k = 8

when,

y = 8 and x = 2.5

y = k × x

8 = k × 2.5

8 = 2.5k

k = 8/2.5

k = 3.2

when,

y = 5 and x = 4

y = k × x

5 = k × 4

5 = 4k

k = 5/4

k = 1.25
