Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]x - [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
5x - 6y = 20
To solve this problem, we make y the subject of the expression:
Solution
5x - 6y = 20
Add -5x to both sides of the expression;
-5x + 5x - 6y = 20 + (-5x)
-6y = 20 - 5x
Now, multiply both sides by [tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex] ;
[tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex] x (-6y) = [tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex] (20 - 5x )
y = [tex]-\frac{20}{6}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]x
y = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]x - [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]

Think About the Process The length of a rectangle is twice the width. The area of the rectangle is 9
square units. Notice that you can divide the rectangle into two squares with equal area. How can you
estimate the side length of each square? Estimate the length and width of the rectangle.
Answer:
The side length of each square is 2.12 units.
The length ad width of the rectangle are 2.12 and 4.24 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the rectangle is x,
So, the length of the rectangle is 2x.
Area of the rectangle = 9 sq. units
[tex]9 = 2x \times x[/tex] [as area = length x width]
[tex]\Rightarrow 9 = 2x^2[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow x^2 = \frac{9}{2}=4.5[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow x = 1.5\sqrt{2}=2.12[/tex] units
So, width of the rectangle, x= 2.12 units and
the llengthof the rectangle, 2x= 2 x 2.12= 4.24 units.
After division of the rectangle into two equal square, so, the area of each square will be half of the area of the rectangle.
The area of the rectangle = 9/2=4.5 square units.
Let a be the length of the sides of the square, so
Area [tex]= a^2[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow a^2=4.5[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex] [tex]a = 1.5\sqrt{2}=2.121[/tex]
Hence, the side length of each square = 2.12 units.
A shop owner offered a 20% discount off the regular price of a mirror. The amount of the discount is $5. What is the regular price of the mirror?
Answer:
25 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
If 20 percent of the initial price was 5, you can create the equation:
0.2x=5, with x being the regular price.
Multiply both sides by 5:
x=25
Answer:
25$
Step-by-step explanation:
20/100 can be rounded down to 1/5 meaning all you have to do is multiply 5 by 5
5 times 5 is 25
25$ was the original price

An ant with a mass of 4 x 10-6 kg is carrying a bread crumb back to its anthill . The bread crumb has a mass of 8 x 10-5 kg. The mass of the bread crumb is how many times the mass of the ant?
Answer:
Mass of bread crumb is 20 times the mass of the ant..
Step-by-step explanation:
Mass of an ant = [tex]4\times 10^{-6}[/tex] kg
Ant carries a weight of bread crumb to its anthill.
Mass of the bread crumb = [tex]8\times 10^{-5}[/tex] kg
Ratio of their masses,
[tex]\frac{\text{Mass of the ant}}{\text{Mass of bread crumb}}=\frac{4\times 10^{-6}}{8\times 10^{-5}}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\text{Mass of the ant}}{\text{Mass of bread crumb}}=\frac{1}{2\times 10^{(-5+6)}}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\text{Mass of the ant}}{\text{Mass of bread crumb}}=\frac{1}{20}[/tex]
Mass of the bread crumb = 20×(Mass of the ant)
Therefore, mass of the bread crumb is 20 times the mass of the ant.

One of the wagers in roulette is to bet that the ball will stop on a number that is a multiple of 3. (Both 0 and 00 are not included.) If the ball stops on such a number, the player wins double the amount bet. If a player bets $5, compute the player's expectation. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Answer:
The player's expectation is a loss of 20 cents.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a game of roulette, there are 38 slots where the ball can stop.
The slots are numbered as follows: {0, 00, 1, 2, 3 ..., 36}.
So, N = 38.
The slots which are multiples of 3 are:
S = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33 and 36}
So, n (S) = 12.
Let X = the ball stops on a number that is a multiple of 3
The probability that the ball stops on a number that is a multiple of 3 is:
[tex]P(X)=\frac{n (S)}{N}=\frac{12}{38}=0.32[/tex]
It s provided that the player wins double the amount bet if the ball stops on a number that is a multiple of 3.
Compute the player's expectation as follows:
[tex]E(X)=\sum X\cdot P(X)[/tex]
[tex]=(\$10\times 0.32)+(-\$5\times (1-0.32))\\\\=\$3.20-\$3.40\\\\=-\$0.20[/tex]
Thus, the player's expectation is a loss of 20 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:
Together, Linda and Penny sold 492 boxes of Girl Scout cookies. Penny
sold 48 more boxes than Linda. How many boxes did Linda sell?
Answer:
222
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L = number of boxes Linda sold.
Let P = number of boxes Penny sold.
The sold a total of 492 boxes.
L + P = 492
Penny sold 48 more boxes than Linda.
P = L + 48
Substitute P with L + 48 in the first equation and solve for L.
L + L + 48 = 492
2L + 48 = 492
2L = 444
L = 222
Answer: Linda sold 222 boxes.
Check:
Penny sold 48 more boxes, so she sold 222 + 48 = 270.
Add the numbers they sold: 222 + 270 = 492
The difference is 48, and the total is 492. Our answer is correct.

A contractor purchases ceramic tile to remodel a kitchen floor. Each tile cost $4 and the adhesive/grouting material costs $17.82. If the contractor pays a total of $545.82 how many ceramic tiles did the contractor purchase
Answer:
132 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each tile cost $4
The adhesive/grouting material costs $17.82.
If the contractor pays a total of $545.82
Let the number of tiles be represented as x
The equation is represented as:
$17.82 + $4 × x = $545.82
17.82 + 4x = 545.82
Collect like terms
4x = 545.82 - 17.82
4x = 528
Divide bother sides by 4
4x/4 = 528/4
x = 132
The number of ceramic tiles the contractor bought = 132 tiles
Which description could be written as a linear function?
a) eight more than twice a number
b) three more than the product of two numbers
c) ten more than the square of a number
d) nine more than one divided by a number
Question:
Which description could be written as a linear function?
Answer:
Option a)
Explanation:
Let 2 numbers be x1 and x2.
For the first option:
Eight more than twice a number.
The graph would be y = 8 + 2x1 which is a linear function.
For the second option:
Three more than the product of two numbers.
The graph would be y = 3 + x1x2 which is a graph function.
For the third option:
Ten more than the square of a number.
The graph would be y = 9 + (x1)² which is a graph function.
For the fourth option:
Nine more than one divided by a number.
The graph would be y = 9 + 1/x1 which is a double-parabole function.
