Answer:

Simplifying

6x + -3 = 21 + -2x

Reorder the terms:

-3 + 6x = 21 + -2x

Solving

-3 + 6x = 21 + -2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2x' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 6x + 2x = 21 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: 6x + 2x = 8x

-3 + 8x = 21 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0

-3 + 8x = 21 + 0

-3 + 8x = 21

Add '3' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 3 + 8x = 21 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + 8x = 21 + 3

8x = 21 + 3

Combine like terms: 21 + 3 = 24

8x = 24

Divide each side by '8'.

x = 3

Simplifying

x = 3

Answer:x=3

Step-by-step explanation:first add 2x to both sides to get all the x's together

6x - 3 + 2x = 21

then add three to both sides to get the x's alone

6x + 2x = 21 + 3

simplify both sides of the equation

8x = 24

divide both sides by 8 to get x by itself

24/8 = 3

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio between flamingos and chachalacas is 2:1, we see that the ratio of flamingos to chachalacas to parrots to herons is 10:5:7:3. The sum of these numbers is 25, so every 'ratio number' gets 375/25 = 15 animals. So the number of chachalacas is 15 * 5 = 75.

postnew [5]

Answer: А. On average, the number of students going to an office hour varies from the mean by about 2.2 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation is a measure of spread, which gives how values deviate from the average or mean value of a particular distribution. Hence, the standard deviation is usually defined about the average value of a distribution.

Therefore, for a certain random variable representing the number of student who visits office hours, the standard deviation will be defined about the average or mean value of the random variable Q.

Thus, stated as ; number of students going to an office hour varies from the mean by 2.2 on average.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ = 4^{2}  - 4 * 4 * (-63)  =  16 + 16 * 63 = 16 * (1 + 63) = 16 * 64

VΔ = 4 *  8 = 32

a = (- 4 ± 32) * \frac{1}{8}

a' = 7/2

a''= 9/2
