Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve:
Distribute 5 among everything inside the first parentheses. You'll get 5x - 15.
Next distribute -2 among everything in the second parentheses. You'll get
-2x - 2.
<u>All together: 5x - </u><u>15</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>2x </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>= 4</u>
Now combine like terms:
5x - 2x = 3x and -15 - 2 = - 17
<u>All</u><u> </u><u>together</u><u>: 3x -</u><u> </u><u>17 = 4</u>
Add 17 on both sides to get 21, and then divide both sides by 3. Answer is x = 7.
________________________________
Last, don't forget to check your work.
You can plug in 7 for x to get:
5(7 - 3) = 20
5 × 7 = 35
5 × -3 = -15
35 - 15 = 20
-2(7 + 1) = -16
-2 × 7 = -14
-2 × 1 = - 2
-14 -2 = -16
<u>20 - 16 = 4</u>
⬆⬆⬆Therefore this is correct.
Sorry this is a bit lengthy, but hope this helps :)
A. The
y-intercept (b) of a linear equation is obtained when x = 0. Therefore from the
given table,
y - intercept
= 8
Since at
time zero the displacement is 8 ft, this means that the horse was already
outside the barn initially.
B. The
average rate of change of the function represents the slope of the linear
equation (m). This can be calculated using the formula:
average rate
of change = m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)
m = (158 –
58) / (3 – 1)
m = 50
<span>C. Since we have determine the y-intercept and
the slope, we can formulate the linear equation:</span>
y = m x + b
y = 50 x + 8
The domain
is the value of x. When y = 508, x is equivalent to
508 = 50 x +
8
<span>x = 10 hrs</span>
The answer is 1:2. all you have to do is add the dots for example 4/5 would be 4:5
<span>1. </span>The probability that one of the diners orders fish = number of diners who ordered fish / total number of diners
p1=45/100=0.45
<span>2. </span>The probability that one of the diners is wearing dress= number of diners wearing dress/ total number of diners
<span>3. </span>p2=14/100=0.14
<span>The probability that one of the diners ordered the fish or is wearing a dress is: p=0.45+0.14=0.59</span>
