Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The number is 0.75 or 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = the number.
Now set up an equation: The product of a number (x) and -4 = -4x. So -4x is subtracted from the number - x. x-(-4x)
Then, that equals 3 more than the number (x) = x+3
So the equation is x-(-4x)=x+3.
Then, solve the equation!
x-(-4x)=x+3
x+4x=x+3 (Distribute the negative to the parentheses)
5x=x+3 (Combine like terms)
4x=3 (Get the Xs on one side by subtracting x from both sides)
x=0.75 or 3/4 (divide by the coefficiant, 4, on both sides)
The is a 50% chance of being a boy or a girl.....previous siblings do not matter. Every child is an independent event. So even if u had 2 siblings that were boys, the result of the next one being a boy is still gonna be 50%...just as the odds of it being a girl, is 50% as well.
X= 1 y=4, x=2 y=8, x=3 y=12
Answer: x = 8, y = 2, coordinates (8,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x = 4y + 8 (divide by 2 to get value of x)
x = 2y + 4
(now substitute x into the second equation to find value of y)
2y + 4 - 2y = 4
2y - 2y = 4 - 4 (divide by 2 to get value of y)
y - y = 2 - 2
y = 2
Now plug in value of "y" to get value of "x".
x - 2(2) = 4
x - 4 = 4
x = 8
Coordinates (8,2)
