1. simplify -7x-3x+2 to -10x+2
 -10x+2=-8x-8
2. add 10x to both sides
2=-8x-8+10x
3. simplify -8x-8+10x to 2x-8
2=2x-8
4. add 8 to both sides
2+8=2x
5. simplify 2+8 to 10
10=2x
6. divide both sides by 2
10/2=x
7. simplify 10/2 to 5
5=x
8. switch sides
x=5

1. simplify x-4x to -3x
-8-x=-3x
2. add x to both sides
-8=-3x+x
3. simplify -3x+x to -2x
-8=-2x
4. divide both sides by -2
-8/-2=x
5. two negatives make a positive
8/2=x
6. simplify 8/2 to 4
4=x
7. switch sides
x=4
hope this helps

The scores on the entrance exam at a well-known, exclusive law school are normally distributed with a mean score of 200 and a st
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

the lowest passing score would be x = 298

Step-by-step explanation:

School wishes that only 2.5 percent of students taking test pass

We are given

mean= 200,

standard deviation = 50

We need to find x

The area under the curve can be found by:

2.5 % = 0.025

So, 1- 0.025 = 0.975

We need to find the value of z for which the answer is 0.975

Looking at the z-score table, the value of z is: 1.96

Now, using the formula:

z = x - mean/standard deviation

1.96 = x - 200/50

=> 1.96 * 50 = x-200

98 = x - 200

=> x = 200+98

x = 298

So, the lowest passing score would be x = 298

13,22,31,...<br> Find the 31st term.<br> Find the 31st term.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer: 283

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, it is helpful to get an equation you can use to solve any term.

This equation is:

13 + 9(n-1)

So simply plug in 31 for n to get

13+9(31-1)

=13+270

=283

Write the equation of a line in the slope-intercept form that has a slope of 4 and contains the point (4, 12).
vekshin1

Answer:

y=4x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

we are given that a line has a slope of 4 and it contains the point (4, 12)

We want to write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

As we are already given the slope, we can immediately substitute it into the formula.

Replace m with 4 in y=mx+b:

y=4x+b

Now we need to find b

As the equation passes through the point (4, 12), we can use it to help solve for b

Substitute 4 as x and 12 as y:

12 = 4(4) + b

Multiply

12 = 16 + b

Subtract 16 from both sides

-4 = b

Substitute -4 as b

y = 4x - 4

Hope this helps!
