and 10.6 is already written as a decimal.
We can follow the following steps to make an equation and solve it.
Step 1:
five less than 13 means we have to subtract 5 from 13
so it becomes 13-5
Step 2:
A number y is five less than thirteen.
Now in algebraic expressions, "is" stands for "="
So we have:

Step 3:
Solving the equation to find y.

Subtracting 5 from 13, we get :
y=8
Answer:
For the given equation the solution is y=8.
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
The line parallel to x=8 is another vertical line:
x = constant
To make it go through a point with an x-coordinate of -3, the constant must be -3.
Your line is ...
x = -3
Answer: Angle A = 53.9 degrees
Step-by-step explanation: We have a right angled triangle with two sides clearly given and one angle to be calculated. If the angle to be calculated is angle A, then having angle A as our reference angle, line AC (10 units) is the adjacent, line CB is the opposite while line AB (17 units) is the hypotenuse. Having been given the adjacent and the hypotenuse, we can now use the trigonometric ratio as follows;
CosA = adjacent/hypotenuse
CosA = 10/17
CosA = 0.5882
By use of the calculator or table of values,
A = 53.97
Approximately to the nearest tenth,
A = 53.9 degrees
Answer:
0.1527
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a researcher wishes to conduct a study of the color preferences of new car buyers.
Suppose that 50% of this population prefers the color red
15 buyers are randomly selected
Let X be the no of buyers who prefer red.
X has exactly two outcomes red or non red.
Also each buyer is independent of the other
Hence X is binomial with p = 0.5 and n = 15
Required prob =The probability that exactly three-fifths of the buyers would prefer red
= P(X=9)
= 
=
