Which value of a would make the following statement true? -3(2x + a) = -6x + 15

Your answer is -5.
This is because, if you expand the single bracket, you get -6x -3a, and since the other side of the equals sign is -6x + 15, then you need to do 15 ÷ -3 = -5.

I hope this helps!

The following figure is not drawn to scale.
erik [133]

Answer:

The triangle angle rule says that all of the angles in a triangle will add up to equal 180. So to find x we subtract the given angles ( 45 and 60 in this case) from 180.

x = 180-60-45

180-60-45=75

so x = 75

To find y we know that angle x and and y are angles formed on a straight line that are split up by a triangle segment. These angles are called supplementary angles which add up to equal 180.

So knowing that angle x = 75 we can find angle y by subtracting 75 from 180

180-75=105 so y = 105

Another way we could solve for y is the exterior triangle rule

This rule states that an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the two opposite interior angles

so y = 45 + 65

45 + 65=105

so y = 105

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Seventh grade: Total = 3 + 7 = 10

Number of boys = 7 boys

Probability of a boy being picked = 7/10

Eighth grade: Total 5 + 5 = 10

Number of boys = 5

Probability 5/10 = 1/2

The probability of the correct outcome = 7/10  *  1/2  = 7 / 20

Answer: 7 / 20

The following conditional statement true. what is the statements converse and is the converse true?
Lera25 [3.4K]
A converse is when we switch the hypothesis and conclusion, so "if a figure is a square then it has four right angles" the converse would be "If a figure has four right angles then it is a square" Which is false because of rectangles, your answer is D.
