Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
You solve a linear equation by putting the variable on one side of the equal sign and a constant on the other side. Here, variables and constants are on both sides of the equal sign, so you need to separate them.
The basic idea is that you add the opposite of any term you don't want. Whenever you perform any operation (like "add"), <em>you must do it to both sides of the equation</em>.
We observe that x-terms have coefficients of 10 and 9. We choose to add the opposite of 9x to both sides:
10 -9x -5 = 9x -9x +2
x -5 = 2 . . . . simplify
Now, we still have -5 on the left, where we don't want it. So, we add its opposite (+5) to both sides:
x -5 +5 = 2 +5
x = 7 . . . . simplify
The solution is x = 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If we were to end up with an x-coefficient other than 1, we would divide both sides of the equation by that coefficient. This will leave the x-term with a coefficient of 1.
100 and 101
the two integers are n and n+1. this means that 2n+1=201. n=100 and n+1=101
Answer: 75% Of the original price

Answer:
2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to know the distance Liam travelled using the bike.
If his speed was 8 mph and he travelled 3 hours, the distance travelled by bike is:
d = 8 * 3 = 24 miles
The total distance is 30 miles, so the remaining is:
30 - 24 = 6 miles
He travelled 6 miles with the speed of 3 mph, so the time walking is:
time = 6 / 3 = 2 hours
Add all the chips to find the total amount.
7 + 9 + 3 + 6 = 25 chips
Since there are 6 blue chips (6/25), that's the probability of just getting once.
When you pick a blue chip and it doesn't get replaced, then that means there is one fewer blue chip and one fewer from the total amount.
5/24
Multiply both probabilities.
6/25 * 5/24 = 30/600
Simplify.
30/600 → 1/20
Therefore, the answer is B
Best of Luck!
