Answer:

x=5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

8x−14=7.7x+3x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8x−14=7.7x+3x

8x+−14=7.7x+3x

8x−14=(7.7x+3x)(Combine Like Terms)

8x−14=10.7x

Step 2: Subtract 10.7x from both sides.

8x−14−10.7x=10.7x−10.7x

−2.7x−14=0

Step 3: Add 14 to both sides.

−2.7x−14+14=0+14

−2.7x=14

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.7.

−2.7x /−2.7 = 14 /−2.7

x=−5.185185 or 5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Residents can press on 10 different button choice when they enters the elevator. Number of components for the sample space for the event is

$10*10*10=1000$

There are 8 different possibilities that 3 consecutive buttons are pressed those are:

-1,2,3

-2,3,4

-3,4,5

-4,5,6

-5,6,7

-6,7,8

-7,8,9

-8,9,10

When the pressing order doesn't matter, those buttons can be pressed 3 different ways for each possibility.

$8*3=24$

The probability is:

$24/1000=0.024$
