X=-9.
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation then isolate the variable
Answer:
1/40
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability: (number of ways to achieve the desired result / number of possible results)
For example, if we want a coin to land on heads:
We know there is one way for it to land on heads and two possible outcomes. Thus, the possibility of flipping a head is 1/2.
Using this, we know that there are 5 grey marbles (the desired result) and there are (5 + 3 + 6 + 2 + 4) total possible outcomes. The probability of drawing a grey marble is then:
5 / (5 + 3 + 6 + 2 + 4) =
5/20 =
1/4
We also know that there are 2 yellow marbles, so the probability of drawing one would be: 2 / 20 = 1/10
To find the probability of both of these events happening right after each other, multiply the probability of them each happening together.
1/4 * 1/10 = 1/40 chance of picking a grey marble and then a yellow marble.
Solve:
We need to isolate k, so multiply both sides by the denominator, which is 64. When we do that, the fraction will cancel and we get:
If you want to check, plug in your answer to the original equation and see if it is true:
This statement is true, so .
27 because 4*4=16. 65+16=81 and 81 divided by 3=27
