*Given
3(x+y)=y
y is not equal to zero
*Solution
1. The given equation is 3(x+y) = y and we are tasked to find the ratio between x and y. Distributing 3 to the terms in the parenthesis,
3(x+y) = y
3x + 3y = y
Transposing 3y to the right side OR subtracting 3y from both the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the equation would give
3x = -2y
Dividing both sides of the equation by 3,
x = (-2/3)y
Dividing both sides of the equation by y,
x/y = -2/3
Therefore, the ratio x/y has a value of -2/3 provided that y is not equal to zero.
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that 12.5% of students own at least 1 pet, then the percentage of students who do not own a pet is
100% - 12.5% = 87.5%
Calculate 87.5% of 32, that is
× 32
= 0.875 × 32 = 28 ← number of students who do not own a pet
Answer:
the bottom one
Step-by-step explanation:
all exponential graphs look similar to that
(-3x + 15) + (-3x + 2)
Simplify by combining like terms.
-6x + 17
-6x + 17
