In this case, you can multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the 1/4 real quick.
4[1/4(8x+16=4x]
8x+16=16x
8x=16
x=2

Answer:

×=2 and where are the steps to show his error?

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Distribute the 1/4.

2. 2x+4=4x-2x.

subtract 2x.

3.4=4x-2x

4. Add like terms

5.4=2x

6.Divide 2

2=x

since we have 6 witnesses and 5 men so,

therefore the probability that they would pick the same man is \frac{5}{6} =0.83333 to 5 decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

probability is the likelihood of an event occurring or not happening.

Find center,foci, and vertices of ellipse (x+3)^2/21+(y-5)^2/25=1
sasho [114]
I don't know if we can find the foci of this ellipse, but we can find the centre and the vertices. First of all, let us state the standard equation of an ellipse. 

(If there is a way to solve for the foci of this ellipse, please let me know! I am learning this stuff currently.) 

\frac{(x-x_{1})^2}{a^2}+ \frac{(y-y_{1})^2}{b^2}=1

Where (x_{1},y_{1}) is the centre of the ellipse. Just by looking at your equation right away, we can tell that the centre of the ellipse is: 

(-3,5)

Now to find the vertices, we must first remember that the vertices of an ellipse are on the major axis. 

The major axis in this case is that of the y-axis. In other words, 

b^2>a^2 

So we know that b=5 from your equation given. The vertices are 5 away from the centre, so we find that the vertices of your ellipse are: 

(-3,10)
 & (-3,0)

I really hope this helped you! (Partially because I spent a lot of time on this lol) 

Sincerely,

Richard s kitchen floor measures 22 ft by 16ft. He plans on laying title down and each tile piece measures 16 inches by 16 inche
olya-2409 [2.1K]
We calculate the floor area of the kitchen:
 A = (22) * (16)
 A = 352 feet ^ 2
 We consider the following conversion:
 1 foot = 12 inches.
 Applying the conversion we have:
 A = 352 * (12/1) ^ 2
 A = 50688 in ^ 2
 We calculate the area of each tile:
 A = (16) * (16)
 A = 256 in ^ 2
 Then, the number of tiles is given by:
 N = (50688) / (256)
 N = 198
 Answer:
 He
 needs to buy 198 tiles
