Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

n = 5


Discussion:

Let the original number be "n"  Translating the problem  statement to mathematical symbolism:

n + 4 = 19 - 2n                   =>  add 2n to both sides

n + 2n + 4 = 19 - 2n + 2n  =>  combine like terms

3n + 4 = 19                        => subtract 4 from both sides

3n = 19 -4  = 15                 => divide both sides by 3

n = 15/3 =5


Check: Does 5 +4 = 19 - 2(5)? Does 9 = 9? Yes. so the value for n is confirmed correct.


Thank you,

MrB

Susan is going to watch a movie in her collection she has 5 action movies 4comedies and 3 dramas she will randomly select one mo
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

9/12 or 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first add the choices all up.

5+4+3= 12.

We have 12 movie choices in total.

Now, we know that we have 3 drama movie choices...so the chance we will choose drama is 3/12, but we are not finding that.  We want the chance she will NOT choose drama, so that would be 9/12.

*Since the chance she will choose drama is 3/12, the chance she will not choose is 9/12. 9+3 is 12, the total amout.*
