Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since B is the midpoint, that means segment AB has to be the same length as BC.

Therefore:

2(3x-1)=8x-20

6x-2=8x-20

18=2x

9=x

Find the solutions to x2 = 28.
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer: x = \pm2\sqrt{7}\\\\

Work Shown:

x^2 = 28\\\\x = \pm\sqrt{28}\\\\x = \pm\sqrt{4*7}\\\\x = \pm\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{7}\\\\x = \pm2\sqrt{7}\\\\

This can be rewritten into x = 2\sqrt{7} \ \text{ or } \ x = -2\sqrt{7}

Katen [24]

Answer: 3 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for example 2/4=4/8 so it is multiplied by 2. In this problem the fractions are 2 2/4 and 6 1/8. We are subtracting so you would first multiply the fraction that’s going to subtracted from the other fraction 2 3/4= 2 6/8. Now that we have our fractions we can subtract 6 1/8-2 6/8 this would leave us with 3.375 which is equal to 3 3/8.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Proved,

P(A∪B)=0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Sue travels by bus or walks when she visits the shops.

Probability( catch the bus to the shop ), P(A) = 0.4

Probability( catch the bus from the shop ), P(B) = 0.7

Both A and B are independent events.

Therefore,

P(A∩B) = 0.4×0.7

           = 0.28

Probability Sue walks one way = 1 - P(A∩B)

                                                   = 1 - 0.28

                                                   = 0.72

Hence, the probability that Sue walks at one way is 0.72
