Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf x = -100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given Equation:</u>

x/5 + 6 = -14

Subtract 6 to both sides

x/5 = -14 - 6

x/5 = -20

Multiply 5 to both sides

x = -20 × 5

x = -100

Answer:

The answer is (-100).

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given</u>;</h3>

x/5 + 6 = -14

The value of x

Now,

x/5 + 6 = -14

Cross multiplication

x + 5 × 6 ÷ 5 = -14

x + 30/5 = -14

Multiply 5 both sides we get,

x + 30/5 × 5 = -14 × 5

x + 30 = -70

x + 30 – 30 = -70 – 30

x = -100

Thus, The value of x is (-100).

Answer:

Yes she made an error. Explanation is below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sample space for a six sided number cube be S

$n(S) = \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}\\n(S) = 6$

Let the event of a number getting greater than two be B

$n(B) = \{3,4,5,6\}\\n(B) = 4$

To find:

the probability of complement of B that is

p(~B) = ?

Solution"

First we need to solve probability for number getting greater than two

$p(B) = \frac{n(B)}{n(S)}$

Now substituting the values we get

$p(B) = \frac{4}{6}$

$p(B) = \frac{2}{3}$

but we need complement of B so

$p(\textrm{complement of B)} = 1 - p(B)\\p(\~B) = 1 - p(B)\\p(\~B) = 1 - \frac{2}{3}\\ =\frac{1}{3} \\$

P(complement of rolling a number greater than two) = $\frac{1}{3}$

Use the fact that 2 1/2 divide 1/8 =20 to find 2 1/2 divide 5/8

Tasya [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that $2\frac 1 2 \div \frac 1 8 =20$

$\Rightarrow \frac 5 2 \div \frac 1 8 =20$

$\Rightarrow \frac 5 2 \times 8 1 =20 \cdots(i)$

Now, $2\frac 1 2 \div \frac 5 8$ $= \frac 5 2 \div \frac 5 8$ $=\frac 5 2 \times \frac 8 5$

This can be written as

$\frac 5 2 \times \frac 8 5=\frac 5 2 \times \left( \frac 8 1 \times \frac 1 5\right)$ [as $\frac 8 5=\frac 8 1 \times \frac 1 5$ ]

$=\left(\frac 5 2 \times \frac 8 1 \right)\times \frac 1 5$

$=20 \times \frac 1 5$ [ by using equation (i)]

Hence, $2\frac 1 2 \div \frac 5 8=4$
