Im guessing its asking what y equals, subtract 3y from each side, the result is 2y-6=-20, add six to each side to get 2y=-14, divide each side by 2, the answer is.....
Y= -7

A scientist looks at a bacterium and a virus in a lab. The bacterium has a diameter of mc020-1.jpg meters. The virus has a diame
Reil [10]
You can divide the two values A = diameter of bacterium B = diameter of virus A/B = (10^(-6))/(10^(-7)) A/B = 10^(-6-(-7)) A/B = 10^(-6+7) A/B = 10^(1) A/B = 10 Since the ratio of the two diameters is 10, this means that the diameter of the bacterium is 10 times greater than that of the virus.

Answer:

The probability is 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to answering this question is considering the fact that the two married employees be treated as a single unit.

Now what this means is that we would be having 8 desks to assign.

Mathematically, the number of ways to assign 8 desks to 8 employees is equal to 8!

Now, the number of ways the couple can interchange their desks is just 2 ways

Thus, the number of ways to assign desks such that the couple has adjacent desks is 2(8!)

The number of ways to assign desks among all six employees randomly is 9!

Thus, the probability that the couple will have adjacent desks would be ;

2(8!)/9! = 2/9

This means that the probability that the couple have non adjacent desks is 1-2/9 = 7/9 = 0.77778

Which is 0.8 to the nearest tenth of a percent
