Hey there!

We need to find the one value of x that, when plugged in, will equal 11.

You have asked if x can equal 5. Let's plug it in and see if it works.

3(5)+2=11

15+2=11

17=11

You can see that this statement is false. So, what can we do to find the right answer.

We need to isolate x so we can see what it equals. To do this, we will use inverse operations.

3x+2-2=11-2

3x=9

3x/3=9/3

x=3

If we plug in 3, you will see that it does equal 11, making the equation true.

I hope this helps!

The stem-and-leaf plot shows the temperatures of patients who registered at a clinic one day. How many patients registered at th
saveliy_v [14]

As the key suggests, the left part is the integer part of the number, while the digit on the right is the decimal part of the number.

So, for example, the first row describes the two values 97.2 and 97.8, while the second row describes the values 98.1, 98.3 (repeated twice), 98.5, 98.6 and 98.7 (repeater three times).

So, the number of values is given by the number of leaves: you simply have to count how many digits are there on the right part of the screen.

The answer is thus 24

PLZ HURRY IT'S URGENT!!

Answer:

OPTION C: 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

Chances of raining the next day + Chances that it will not rain = 100%

One of them should definitely be true.

So, if the chance of it raining tomorrow is 40% then there is 60% chance that it will not rain tomorrow.

This can also seen as follows:

Probability of rain tomorrow + Probability of no rain = 1

Given Probability of rain tomorrow = 40% = $ \frac{40}{100} = \frac{2}{5} $

Probability of no rain tomorrow = 1 - Probability of rain tomorrow

⇒ Probability of no rain = 1 - $ \frac{2}{5} $

⇒ Probability of no rain = $ \frac{3}{5} $

Expressing it as percentage: $ \frac{3}{5} \times 100 $ = 60%.
