1 answer:

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equation our aim is to find the value of what we are looking for as well as keeping the equation balanced. For example if we took away 1.4 only from one side then the equation would change so it's an important rule to keep in mind when solving equations, that you need to keep both sides of the equation the same.

0.7x - 1.4 = -3.5

→ First multiply everything by 10 to make everything into a whole number

7x - 14 = -35

→ Plus 14 to both sides to isolate 7x

7x = -21

→ Divide both sides by 7 to isolate 7

x = -3

A jar contains 30 red, 30 blue, and 60

kiruha [24]

The probability of picking red button is $\frac{1}{4}$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, A jar contains 30 red, 30 blue, and 60 white buttons.

You pick one button at a random choice,

We have to find the probability that it is red button.

Now, total number of buttons = 30 + 30 + 60 = 120 buttons.

Number of favourable cases for red button = 30 red buttons.

The probability of an event is given as:

$\text { probability of a event }=\frac{\text { favourable ways to pick red }}{\text { total possiblities }}$

$=\frac{30}{120}=\frac{1}{4}$

Thus the probability that it is red is $\frac{1}{4}$
