Answer= -54
-2(bx-5)=16
If b is 3, then it changes to -2(3x-5)=16
We want to find x, right? Then we must do -2•3x and -2(-5). The result would be -6x and 10.
Then again, the equation would change -6x+10=16
Which would be -6x=6
Is x=6/6
And then x would be 1
Please tell me what I did wrong and if it is wrong, comment on this and I’ll fix my mistake!^^
Answer:
feet tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Ajax is "5 and 1 fourth feet tall", which can be written as the mixed number
.
His sister is "3 eighths foot shorter", so she's 3/8 feet shorter than 5 1/4.
So, this is just a subtraction problem:

To solve this, we want to convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction, which is:
. Now, we want to find a common denominator. In this case, that common denominator is 8, so
.
Finally, we subtract 3/8 from 42/8:
. So, Ajax's sister is 39/8 feet. Converting this into a mixed number, we have: 39/8 = 4
.
Therefore, Ajax's sister is
feet tall.
Hope this helps!
The most likely number of cats = 21/37 x 8 = 4.54 ≈ 5 cats
The most likely number of dogs = 16/37 x 8 = 3.46 ≈ 3 dogs
The probability of that arrangement happening = 1/8^2 = 1/64 = 0.00156
Yea they are cuz they have the same side and angle measurements
