Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

36 (x - 5) = 9 x - 18

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

36 x - 180 = 9 x - 18

Subtract 9 x from both sides:

(36 x - 9 x) - 180 = (9 x - 9 x) - 18

36 x - 9 x = 27 x:

27 x - 180 = (9 x - 9 x) - 18

9 x - 9 x = 0:

27 x - 180 = -18

Add 180 to both sides:

27 x + (180 - 180) = 180 - 18

180 - 180 = 0:

27 x = 180 - 18

180 - 18 = 162:

27 x = 162

Divide both sides of 27 x = 162 by 27:

(27 x)/27 = 162/27

27/27 = 1:

x = 162/27

The gcd of 162 and 27 is 27, so 162/27 = (27×6)/(27×1) = 27/27×6 = 6:

Answer:  x = 6

What is the P(H,H,H,T,T) on 5 flips of a coin?<br><br> I need help
meriva

Answer:

The probability for Heads will be 60% or 3/5.

The probability for Tails will be 40% or 2/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coin flipped 5 times and landed on Heads 3 times. This shows that out of 5 situations, 3 situations were Heads. Therefore, the  probability is 3/5.

The coin landed on Tails 2/5 times the coin was flipped, which is basically the probability.

HELP!! Identify the transformation from ABC to A'B'C'.
elena55 [62]

Answer:

<em>Thus, the transformation from ABC to A'B'C' is a reflection over the x-axis.</em>

<em>Choice 1.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Reflection over the x-axis</u>

Given a point A(x,y), a reflection over the x-axis maps A to the point A' with coordinates A'(x,-y).

The figure shows triangles ABC and A'B'C'. It can be clearly seen the x-coordinates for each vertex of both triangles is the same and the y-coordinate is the inverse of it counterpart. For example A=(5,3) and A'=(5,-3)

Thus, the transformation from ABC to A'B'C' is a reflection over the x-axis.

Choice 1.

14 is what percent of 28?
Butoxors [25]
50%. If you divide 28 by 14, (14/28), you’d get 0.5. Move the decimal place two places to the right, and that’s 50% :)
