If 3(y-1) = y -5. y = ____________.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

-1 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

the question is 3(y-1)=y-5

so, we open the bracets and multiply

so it becomes 3y-3 = y-5

now, we transpose

3y-y =-5+3

2y = -2

y= -2/2 = -1

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(y-1)=y-5\n\n3y-3=y-5\n\n3y-3+3=y-5+3\n\n3y=y-2\n\n3y-y=y-y-2\n\n2y=-2\n\n(2y=-2)/(2)\n\n\boxed{y=-1}

Hope this helps.

A student conducts a survey to determine which students at the high school completed an algebra course during their freshman year. 49, 34, and 48 students are selected at random from the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes. Each class has a population of 496, 348, and 481 respectively. Which type of sampling did the student use?random

stratified

systematic

cluster

Answers

The type of sampling done on the students is

STRATIFIED

Since the population are divided into strata (groups) according to their year level and random samples are taken from each of the stratum.

Random sampling is done when the samples are randomly taken from all the population. Systematic sampling is done when there is an interval used to determine which sample is to be taken. Cluster sampling is done when the population is grouped into cluters and samples are taken from random clusters. Cluster sampling does not ensure that samples will be taken from all clusters.

Solve for x.


23=79(6x−36)+9

Answers

23=474x-2844+9
23=474x-2835
-474x=-2835-23
-474x=-2858
x=1429/237

23 = 79(6x - 36) + 9

Distribute 79 inside the parentheses.

23 = 474x - 2,844 + 9

Combine like terms.

23 = 474x - 2,835

Add 2,835 to both sides.

2,858 = 474x

Divide both sides by 474.

x = 2,858/474

Simplified by dividing both sides by 2: 1,429/237

Your answer is x = 1,429/237.

What number completes the pattern 107-98 90-83 77

Answers

So we want to know which number comes next in the series of numbers 107 98 90 83 77. First we find the pattern: 107-98=9, 98-90=8, 90-83=7, 83-77=6 so now we see that each number in the pattern is smaller by 1 than the previous number. so the next number will be 5 and 77-5=72 and that is the next number. Also the complete number series is: 72-4=68, 68-3=65, 65-2=63, 63-1=62 and finally 62-0= 62.
