Simplify 1/3(6x - 15) to 6x - 15/3
6x - 15/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)
Factor out the common term; 3
3(2x - 5)/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)
Cancel out 3
2x - 5 = 1/2(10x - 4)
Simplify 1/2(10x - 4) to 10x - 4/2
2x - 5 = 10x - 4/2
Factor out the common term; 2
2x - 5 = 2(5x - 2)/2
Cancel out 2
2x - 5 = 5x - 2
Subtract 2x from both sides
-5 = 5x - 2 - 2x
Simplify 5x - 2 - 2x to 3x - 2
-5 = 3x - 2
Add 2 to both sides
-5 + 2 = 3x
Simplify -5 + 2 to -3
-3 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3
- 1 = x
Switch sides
<u>x = -1</u>
Given that Erica and AAron,are using lottery system to decide who will wash dishes every night.
They put some red and blue power chips and draw each one. If same colour, Aaron will wash and if not same colours Erica will wash
If the game is to be fair, then both should have equal chances of opportunity for washing.
i.e. Probability for Erica washing = Prob of Aaron washing
i.e. P(different chips) = P(same colour chips)
Say there are m red colours and n blue colours.
Both are drawing at the same time.
Hence Prob (getting same colour) = (mC2+nC2)/(m+n)C2
Probfor different colour = mC1+nC1/(m+n)C2
The two would be equal is mC2 +nC2 = m+n
This is possible if mC2 =m and nC2 = n.
Or m = 2+1 =3 and n =3
That for a fair game we must have both colours to be 3.
Answer:
Answer: the equivalent form of 6(2x+3x+10) are 12x+18x + 60 and 30x+60.
Hope this helps
The correct answer for the question shown above is the second option, the option B, which is: B. <span>W'(2, 10), X'(2, 2), Y'(10, 2)
The explanation is shown below: As you can see, the original triangle has the following coordinates </span><span> W(1, 5), X(1, 1), and Y(5, 1); the triangle must be dilated by a common scale factor, so if you analize the option B, you can notice that the triangle was dilated by a scale factor of 2.</span>
