\bf{7x-x}

We can take out x as a factor

\bf{x(7-1}

What is 7-1=?

6 !

\bf{x(6)=6x}

So your final answer is

\boxed{\bf{6x}}

In a naval engagement, one-third of the fleet was captured, one-sixth was sunk, and two ships were destroyed by fire. One-sevent
Otrada [13]

Answer:

60 ships.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of ships in the naval fleet be represented by x

One-third of the fleet was captured = 1/3x

One-sixth was sunk = 1/6x

Two ships were destroyed by fire = 2

Let surviving ships be represented by y

One-seventh of the surviving ships were lost in a storm after the battle = 1/7y

Finally, the twenty-four remaining ships sailed home

The 24 remaining ships that sailed home =

y - 1/7y = 6/7y of the surviving fleet sailed home.

Hence

24 = 6/7y

24 = 6y/7

24 × 7/ 6

y = 168/6

y = 28

Therefore, total number of ships that survived is 28.

Surviving ships lost in the storm = 1/7y = 1/7 × 28 = 4

Total number of ships in the fleet(x) =

x = 1/3x + 1/6x + 2 + 28

Collect like terms

x - (1/3x + 1/6x) = 30

x - (1/2x) = 30

1/2x = 30

x = 30 ÷ 1/2

x = 30 × 2

x = 60

Therefore, ships that were in the fleet before the engagement were 60 ships.

Find the probability that when a couple has three children, at least one of themis a girl. (Assume that boys and girls are equal
kvv77 [185]

Answer:   \bold{\dfrac{7}{8}=87.5\%}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

"At least one girl" means P(1 girl) + P(2 girls) + P(3 girls)   or   1 - P(all boys)

I will use the latter: 1 - P(all boys)

P(all boys) = \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{8}

1 - P(all\ boys) \quad = \quad 1-\dfrac{1}{8}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{7}{8}}
