Answer:
x = 11
distributive law
additive law
multiplication property
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question an equation
4(x-7) = 2x-6
Distributive law
a(b+c) = ab +ac
4x - 4(7) = 2x - 6
4x -28 = 2x - 6
Use the addition property of equality to reduce the 2x on the right.
4x - 2x - 28 = 2x - 2x -6
4x -2x -28 = -6
Use the addition property of equality to reduce -28 to zero on the left.
4x - 2x- 28 + 28 = -6 + 28
2x = 22
Use the multiplication property of equality to reduce 2x to just x
2x2 = 22/22
x = 22/2
x = 11
(x + 9)(x + 12) = 0
Expanding the brackets, we get:
When you multiply it is just 5*23=115
115*2= 230
Answer:
the probability that at least one envelope is a yellow envelope is 16/21
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that at least one envelope is a yellow envelope is P(Y);
P(Y) = 1 - P(Y)'
P(Y)' is the probability that no envelope is a yellow envelope.
Given;
red envelope = 1
blue envelopes = 3
green envelopes = 2
yellow envelopes = 3
Total = 9
Number of non-yellow envelope = 9 -3 = 6
(6 envelope are not yellow)
P(Y)' = P1 × P2 × P3
Since there is no replacement;
P(Y)' = 6/9 × 5/8 × 4/7
P(Y)' = 5/21
From equation 1;
P(Y) = 1 - 5/21
P(Y) = 16/21
the probability that at least one envelope is a yellow envelope is 16/21.
