Answer:

<u> y = 19/36</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that what you want is the value of y, you can pass all the right side stuff to the left, and the y to the right:

2/3 + 15/6 = 6y

Then you can sum the fractions on the left by using the same denominators:

4/6 + 15/6 = 6y       ==>      19/6 = 6 * y

then  you can pass the 6 that is multiplying on the right to the left - now dividing:

<u> y = 19/36</u>

  15 = 36y . . . . . . . . . . add 36y+11

  15/36 = y = 5/12 . . . . divide by 36, reduce the fraction

_____

At a certain company, 64.5% of the employees have engineering degrees. Express this percent as a decimal
Verdich [7]

At a certain company, 64.5% of the employees have engineering degrees.

To express the percentage as a decimal we need to remove the % symbol.

To remove % symbol we always divide by 100

When we divide by 100 we move the decimal point two places to the left.

64.5 =\frac{64.5}{100}  = 0.645

The decimal vale of 64.5% is 0.645

All sides of a square and a pentagon are 9 inches long. Are their perimeters the same? Explain
EastWind [94]


No they wouldn't be the same because, the perimeter is adding all sides.

The square has 4 sides so you would add 9, four times.

9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 36

And a pentagon has 5 sides so you would add 9, five times.

9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 45

So, they are not the same.

Hope this helps. :)

The length of the rectangle is 4cm less than its width . what are the dimensions of the rectangle if its area is 140
melomori [17]
Let the width of the rectangle be x
Then length =x-4
Area=x(x-4)=140
x²-4x=140
x²-4x-140=0
x²-14x+10x-140=0
x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0
(x-14)(x+10)=0
Therefore,length=14 cm and  width=10 cm
