Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
x = 10
Answer:
8/15
Step-by-step explanation:
because there are 8 red marbles out of 15 marbles
The volume of the box as a polynomial in the variable x is x(12 - 2x)(7 - 2x)
<h3>How to determine the volume?</h3>
The complete question is added as an attachment
From the attached image, we have:
Length = 12 - 2x
Width = 7 - 2x
Height = x
The volume is calculated as:
Volume = Length * Width * Height
Substitute the known values in the above equation
Volume = (12 - 2x) * (7 - 2x) * x
This gives
Volume = x(12 - 2x)(7 - 2x)
Hence, the volume of the box as a polynomial in the variable x is x(12 - 2x)(7 - 2x)

Answer:
0.12
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose there are 100 kids
60% have fever, so <em><u>what is 60% of 100?</u></em>
We convert percentage to decimal and multiply:
60/100 = 0.6
0.6 * 100 = 60 have fever
20% of the people having fever (60 of them) have sore throats, so,
<u><em>What is 20% of 60?</em></u>
We convert percentage to decimal and multiply:
20/100 = 0.2
0.2 * 60 = 12 have sore throat
So, how many people are there with fever AND sore throat, that is 12. We took initially there to be 100 people. Hence, the probability is:
