Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 11 - 5x + 17 = 0

First collect like terms and add or subtract them,

3x - 5x + 11 + 17 = 0

-2x + 28 = 0

Second subtract -28 from both side, which will be,

-2x + 28 - 28 = 0 - 28

-2x = -28

Then divide both side by -2,

-2x / -2 = -28 / -2

after dividing it by -2, the final answer will be,

<h2><u>x = -14 </u></h2><h2>I hope this helps you.</h2>

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

22 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

A dozen items means 12 number of items.

Number of cookies brought by Sherry = No. of containers multiplied by number of cookies in one container

= 2 $\times$ 6 = 12

Number of cookies brought by Sally = A dozen cookies = 12

Number of cookies brought by Sandy = 2

Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together = 12 + 12+2 = 26

Total number of cookies to be brought = 4 dozen = 48 cookies

Number of cookies to be brought by Harry = Total number of cookies to be brought - Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together

48 - 26 = <em>22 cookies</em>

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of Students =300

Percentage who had cats, n(C) = 40%

Percentage who had both cats and dogs , $n(C \cap D)$ = 12%

Percentage who had neither cats nor dogs, $n(C \cup D)'$ =45%

Now:

Universal Set, $U = n(C)+n(D)-n(C \cap D)+n(C \cup D)'$

$100 = 40 + n(D)-12+45\\n(D)=100-73\\$Percentage of those who own dogs =27\%$

Therefore:

Number of Students who had dogs

=27% of 300

=81
