-7x + 2x (add common factors)
-5x+6+21 (what happen to one side happens to the others
-5x=21 (divide by five)
x= -3

Combine like terms, 2x + -7x = -5x.
Now you have -5x + 6 = 21.
subtract 6 from both 6 and 21, the 6 cancels out and 21-6=15.
You’re left with -5x=15
Divide 5 on both sides, -5 cancels out, and you’re left with
x=-3
sorry this was messy and i hope this made sense!

If you choose one student at random, what is the probability (±0.0001) that the student's score is between 20 and 30?
nordsb [41]
Z-score for 30 = (30 - 25) / 5.8 = 0.8621
z-score for 20 = (20 - 25) / 5.8 = -0.8621
:
Note find probabilities from z-tables
:
Probability ( 20 < X < 30 ) = 0.8051 - 0.1949 = 0.6102

Consider the geometric sequence 16, 8, a, 2, b, ... (a) Write down the common
Artist 52 [7]

Find the common ratio by dividing.

16 / 8 = 2

8 / a = 2

2 / b = 2

The common ratio is 2.

Since we need to find the values of a and b, use the common ratio to solve for them.

8 / 2 = 4 (a)

2 / 2 = 1 (b)

Now, we know that first 5 terms.

We can solve for the 8th term using the previous terms and the common ratio.

6th term: 1 / 2 = 0.5

7th term: 0.5 / 2 = 0.25

8th term: 0.25 / 2 = 0.125

Part A: 2

Part B: a = 4, b = 1

Part C: 0.125

Best of Luck!
