First, group your like terms:
30-4.5x+36=102-7.5x-60
30+36-4.5x=102-60-7.5x
66-4.5x=42-7.5x
Second, add 7.5x on both sides:
66+3x=42
Next, subract 66 on both sides:
3x=-24
Now, divide 3 on both sides:
-24/3=-8
x=-8

Which of the following lists all of the positive factors of 18?
babymother [125]

The square root of 18 is 4.2426, rounded down to the closest whole number is 4. Testing the integer values 1 through 4 for division into 18 with a 0 remainder we get these factor pairs: (1 and 18), (2 and 9), (3 and 6). The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18.

PLS HELP BRAINLIEST WILL BE GIVEN :D
disa [49]

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

By tracing the lines on the tree diagram, we see the probability of both being red is 0.5 × 0.6 = 0.3.

The probability of both being blue is 0.5 × 0.4 = 0.2.

So we would expect to get both blue 2/3 of the times we get both red.

X = 2/3 (84)

X = 56

Please help and explain how you solved it. Thanks.
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

This is 0.14 to the nearest hundredth

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we list the parameters;

Drive to school = 40

Take the bus = 50

Walk = 10

Sophomore = 30

Junior = 35

Senior = 35

Total number of students in sample is 100

Let W be the event that a student walked to school

So P(w) = 10/100 = 0.1

Let S be the event that a student is a senior

P(S) = 35/100 = 0.35

The probability we want to calculate can be said to be;

Probability that a student walked to school given that he is a senior

This can be represented and calculated as follows;

P( w| s) = P( w n s) / P(s)

w n s is the probability that a student walked to school and he is a senior

We need to know the number of seniors who walked to school

From the table, this is 5/100 = 0.05

So the Conditional probability is as follows;

P(W | S ) = 0.05/0.35 = 0.1429

To the nearest hundredth, that is 0.14
