Answer:

18.25

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number

add 6:    (x+6)  

double it :   2(x+6)

result = 48.5

2 (x+6) = 48.5

x+6 = 24.25

x = 18.25

Three fifths of a number is equal to twice the number minus sixty-three hundredths. What is the number?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

That number is 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5x = 2x - 63/100

0.63 = 2x - 3/5x

0.63 = 10/5x - 3/5x

0.63 = 7/5x

7x = 0.63*5 = 3.15

x = 3.15/7

Given the following three arithmetic sequences : 1, 3, ... and 1, 4, ... and 1, 5, ... A number is randomly selected from 1 to 1
ladessa [460]

Answer:

  0.333

Step-by-step explanation:

The first sequence starts at 1 and has a common difference of 2. It will include every odd number in the range.

__

The second sequence starts at 1 and has a common difference of 3. It will include odd numbers and the even numbers 4, 10, 16, .... That is, all even numbers of the form 6n -2 will be included. The last one corresponds to the largest value of n such that ...

  6n -2 ≤ 1000

  6n ≤ 1002

  n ≤ 167

That is, 167 even numbers will also be excluded.

__

The third sequence starts at 1 and has a common difference of 4. Every number in this sequence is also a number in the first sequence.

__

So the numbers in these sequences include all 500 odd numbers and 167 even numbers, for a total of 667 numbers. The probability that a randomly chosen number is not in one of these sequences is ...

  (1000 -667)/(1000) = 333/1000 = 0.333 . . . . p(not a sequence term)
