Astudent is trying to solve the system of two equations given below:
equation p: y + z = 6
equation q: 8y + 7z = 1
which of the following is a possible step used in eliminating the y-term?
a (y + z = 6) ⋅ −8
b(y + z = 6) ⋅ 7
c (8y + 7z = 1) ⋅ 7
d (8y + 7z = 1) ⋅ 8

If a || b and b | y, then ? a) x || y. b) x | a. c) a | y. d) a || y.

If m∠abc = 70°, what is m∠abd? justify your reasoning.  using the addition property of equality, 40 + 70 = 110, so m∠abd = 110°.  using the subtraction property of equality, 70 − 30 = 40, so m∠abd = 30°.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + m∠abd = 70. so, m∠abd = 30° using the subtraction property of equality.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + 70 = m∠abd. so, m∠abd = 110° using the addition property of equality.

In a survey of 1015 adults, a polling agency asked, "when you retire, do you think you will have enough money to live comfortably or not. of the 1015 surveyed, 534 stated that they were worried about having enough money to live comfortably in retirement. construct a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of adults who are worried about having enough money to live comfortably in retirement.
