Answer:
Let us assume the total number of students surveyed = x
Then
Number of students preferring red = x/4
Number of students preferring blue = x/8
Then
Number of students remaining = x - [(x/4) + (x/8)]
=x - [(2x + x)/8)
= x - (3x/8)
= (8x - 3x)/8
= 5x/8
Number of students preferring the color green = (3/5) * (5x/8)
= 3x/8
We also know that the total number of students preferring the color green is 15
So
3x/8 = 15
3x = 15 * 8
x = (15 * 8)/3
= 5 * 8
= 40
So in total 40 students were surveyed. I hope the procedure is clear to you.
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in 4 for X and you get 44
Answer : The incorrect step is, (A) step 1: -10 + 6x > 8
Step-by-step explanation :
The given expression is:

Now solving this expression step by step.
First -4 distributed over parentheses.

Now solving bracket term, we get:

Now taking like terms together, we get:



Now multiplying this expression by (-1), we get:

Thus, the incorrect step is, (A) step 1: -10 + 6x > 8
I know that the answer for number 10 is the first option
