Answer:

x= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute -2 into the parenthesis.

-6x+(-20)+14x= 28

The negative sign cancels out the addition sign,

-6x-20+14x= 28

Add the variables together.

(-6x+14)

8x-20= 28

Add 20 to both sides.

8x-20= 28

+20 +20

Divide to both sides.

8x= 48

No because that would just be measuring freshman a better sampling method would be surveying the same number of students for each grade

Pierce is making a rectangular frame for a photo collage that has a perimeter of 72.2 72.2 inches. The length of the frame is 20

Allushta [10]

Answer:

$P = 2x+2y$ (1)

And we know that the lenght is y = 20.3. If we solve for x from equation (1) we got:

$P-2y = 2x$

$\frac{P-2y}{2} =x$

And replacing we got:

$x = \frac{72.2 in -2*20.3 in}{2}= 15.8 in$

And the width for this case would be 15.8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that the photo is rectangular. Let's define:

x = the width, y= the length

And we know that the perimeter is given by:

$P = 2x+2y$ (1)

And we know that the lenght is y = 20.3. If we solve for x from equation (1) we got:

$P-2y = 2x$

$\frac{P-2y}{2} =x$

And replacing we got:

$x = \frac{72.2 in -2*20.3 in}{2}= 15.8 in$

And the width for this case would be 15.8 in

In science class, Logan estimates the volume of a sample to be 42 mL. The actual volume of the sample is 48 mL. Find the percent

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Percent of error of Logan's Estimate is 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Actual Volume of sample =48 mL

Estimated Volume of sample = 42 mL

We need to find the percent errors of Logan estimate.

To calculate percent of error below are the steps.

Step 1: Subtract the Actual value from the estimated value.

Step 2: Take the absolute value of step 1

Step 3: Divide that answer by the Actual value.

Step 4: Multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

Now Substituting the values we get;

Step 1: To Subtract Actual Volume with Estimated Volume

Estimated Volume of sample - Actual Volume of sample = 42 - 48 = -6 mL

Step 2: Find Absolute value we get;

$|-6| = 6$

Step 3 : Divide that answer by the Actual volume.

$\frac{6}{48}=0.125$

Step 4: Multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

$0.125\times 100 = 12.5\%$

Hence Percent of error of Logan's Estimate is 12.5%

15c² - 5c. Factorise completely

KATRIN_1 [288]

Looking at the problem, what we must do to complete this question is to completely factor the expression that was provided. The expression that was provided is $15c^2 - 5c$ .

The first step that we must do is to take a look at the expression and see what the two pieces of the expression have in common. We can see that both $15c^2$ and $-5c$ have the number 5 and the variable c associated with them so we can factor out those two.
