$3x = x + 40 \\ 3x - x = 40 \\ 2x = 40 \\ x = \frac{40}{2} \\ x = 20$
The answer is x = 20

The answer is x=20 that’s the right answer I’m not algebra so I can’t really help u but I’m guessing it is 20

A horticulturist wants to improve the soil quality in a garden by adding 120 pounds of nitrogen and 54 pounds of potassium. A pa

eimsori [14]

x and y are the packs of organic and inorganic fertilizer, respectively.

pounds of nitrogen added = 2x + 6y = 120

pounds of potassium added = 3x + 2y = 54

eliminate the y terms. subtract the first equation from 3 times the second equation.

9x + 6y = 162

-2x - 6y = -120

------------------

7x = 42

x = 6

y = 18

Answer:

P ( snowboard I ski) = 0.5714

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Ski

Event B: Snowboard.

28 out of 120 students ski:

This means that $P(A) = \frac{28}{120} = 0.2333$

16 out of 120 do both:

This means that $P(A \cap B) = \frac{16}{120} = 0.1333$

P ( snowboard I ski)

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1333}{0.2333} = 0.5714$

P ( snowboard I ski) = 0.5714
