Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

combine like terms to get 15x=30. divide by 15 on both sides to get x=2

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Simplify the expression

4x+9x+2x=30

Simplify the arithmetic:

15x=30

2. Isolate the x

15x=30

Divide both sides by 15:

\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{30}{15}

Simplify the fraction:

x=\frac{30}{15}

Find the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator:

x=\frac{2\cdot 15}{1\cdot 15}

Factor out and cancel the greatest common factor:

x=2

Why learn this

Linear equations cannot tell you the future, but they can give you a good idea of what to expect so you can plan ahead. How long will it take you to fill your swimming pool? How much money will you earn during summer break? What are the quantities you need for your favorite recipe to make enough for all your friends?

Linear equations explain some of the relationships between what we know and what we want to know and can help us solve a wide range of problems we might encounter in our everyday lives.

Find the missing coefficient.<br><br> -<br> y2 − [-5y − y(-7y − 9)] − [-y (15y + 4)] = 0
maria [59]
There is only one solution in the given equation -y2 − [-5y − y(-7y − 9)] − [-y (15y + 4)] = 0. In solving this problem, apply first PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents,multiplication, division, addition, subtraction). Then equation will transform into -y2+5y-7y2-9y+15y2+4y=0. Combine terms with same power and achieve 7y2=0. Divide both sides with 7 and perform square root of zero. Since the root is zero, we have one solution of the given equation which is y=0.

At a school pep rally the ratio of students who wore red to those who wore yellow is 7 to 3 their are 300 students at the rally
Serhud [2]
Red to yellow.......7:3....added = 10
so 7/10 of the total students wore red and 3/10 of the total students wore yellow

and there are 300 total students...
7/10(300) = 2100/10 = 210 wore red
3/10(300) = 900/10 = 90 wore yellow

how many more wore red.....(210 - 90) = 120 more students wore red then yellow

Does the table represent an exponential function? Explain.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

No, because as the x-values are increasing by a constant amount, the y-values are not being multiplied by a constant amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a set of ordered pairs of the form (x, y)

If a function is exponential then the ratio between the consecutive values of y, is always equal to a constant.

This means that:

\frac{y_2}{y_1}=\frac{y_3}{y_2}=\frac{y_4}{y_3}=by1y2=y2y3=y3y4=b

This is: y_2=by_1y2=by1

Now we have this set of points {(-1, -5), (0, -3), (1, -1), (2, 1)}

Observe that:

\begin{gathered}\frac{y_2}{y_1}=\frac{-3}{-5}=\frac{3}{5}\\\\\frac{y_3}{y_2}=\frac{-1}{-3}=\frac{1}{3}\\\\\frac{3}{5}\neq \frac{1}{3}\end{gathered}y1y2=−5−3=53y2y3=−3−1=3153=31

Then the values of y are not multiplied by a constant amount "b"

a bag contains 5 grape tootsie pops and 8 chocolate tootsie pops. if juan pulls a chocolate tootsie pop out of the bag and eats
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

= 5 / 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is an outcome of chance. It is a measure of outcomes of events.

To solve the probability of picking a Tootsie Pop, we must comfortably know the contents of the bag.

Number of GRAPE Tootsie pops = 5

Number of CHOCOLATE Tootsie pops= 8

Total number of Tootsie pops = The sum of both Tootsie pops

Total number = 5 + 8

= 13.

Let's note that tge question said , Juan pulls a chocolate Tootsie Pop and eats. The implication is it has reduced the total number of Tootsie Pops left in the bag.

Therefore:

The probability that the next pop he pulls out will be grape will be

Probability (Grape) = 5 / (13 -1)

= 5 / 12

The probability that the next Pop he pulls out will be a grape = 5/12
