The value of p that makes the given equation true is equal to: B. p = -5

<u>Given the following equation:</u>

$3p - 8 = -23$

To find a value of p that makes the given equation true:

In this exercise, you're required to determine a value of p that satisfies the given equation true such that when substituted into the equation, it has a true result or outcome.

Rearranging the equation by collecting like terms, we have:

$3p - 8 = -23\\\\3p=-23+8\\\\3p=-15\\\\p=\frac{-15}{3}$

p = -5

In a school of 330 students, 85 of them are in a drama club, 200 of them are in a sports team and 60 of them do both

Neko [114]

Answer:

105/330 = 21/66 = 7/22

7/22 is the answer I think

Step-by-step explanation:

n(U) = 330

n(A) = 85

n(B) = 200

n(A n B) = 60

Now,

n(A U B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A n B)

or, n(A U B) = 85 + 200 - 60

or, n(A U B) = 285 - 60 = 225

Now,

n(A U B) compliment = n(U) - n(A U B)

n(A U B) compliment = 330 - 225

so, n(A U B) compliment = 105

Now,

probability = 105/330

You are creating a decorative rope that is at least 20 feet long. You do not have enough 6 inch beads to make the rope, so you w

Inessa05 [86]

You can use at most 24 beads that are 10 inches long to decorate the rope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Length of rope = 120 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

20 foot = 20*12 = 240 inches

Length of bead = 10 inches

Let,

x represents the number of beads used on rope.

As the rope is 240 inches long, therefore, the total length of beads cannot exceed 240 inches.

Length of each bead*Number of beads ≤ length of rope

$10*x\leq 240\\10x\leq 240$

Dividing both sides by 10

$\frac{10x}{10}\leq \frac{240}{10}\\x\leq 24$

You can use at most 24 beads that are 10 inches long to decorate the rope.

Given

Regression Equation:

$DD=2.69+0.0138D$

Required

Determine the slope of the regression line

The equation of regression is of the form

$Y = a + bX$

Where b represents the slope;

Compare $Y = a + bX$ to the given equation

$DD=2.69+0.0138D$

We have that:

$Y = DD$

$a = 2.69$

$b = 0.0138$

$X = D$

Hence; the slope is:

$b = 0.0138$
