4.5(8 - x) + 36 = 102 - 2.5(3x + 24)

36 - 4.5x + 36 = 102 - 7.5x - 60

72 - 4.5x = 42 - 7.5x

-4.5x + 7.5x = 42 - 72

3x = - 30

x = -30/3

x = -10 <===

Hope this helps!

In a certain card game you draw one card off a standard deck of 52 cards. If you draw a spade you get paid $12, if you draw a re
Mariulka [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 2 red aces, 2 red Queens, and 13 spades.  That leaves 35 cards for everything else.

For the game to be fair, the cost must equal the expected value.  The expected value is the sum of each outcome times its probability.

C = (12) (13/52) + (20) (2/52) + (38) (2/52) + (0) (35/52)

C = 68/13

C ≈ 5.2308

A four-pack of 4242-ounce ink cartridges sells for $85.99$85.99. The expression 42c42c represents the amount of ink in a number
masya89 [10]
The variable cc refers to how much ink is in a certain number of cartridges. If the box says 42cc, that means the amount of ink in those particular cartridges is 42. If a box said 12cc, the amount would be 12. The variable cc just states the amount of ink you can expect from a particular amount of cartridges.

How do I find the variable?<br><br> N x 1/5 = 2/15<br><br> N / 1/5 = 1/3
algol [13]
First you need to get all variables on one side. You do that by multiplying the reciprocal of the fraction to everything.
N(5/1) x 1/5(5/1)=2/15(5/1)
5n=2/15 x 5/1
Then solve the multiplication problem
5n= 10/15
Then you should reduce the fraction
5n=2/3
Then divide both sides by 5
5n/5=N
2/3 divided by 5 =2/15

N=2/15
