Answer:

The correct answer is last option

5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, eight white balls and twenty black balls are in a bag

<u>To find the probability</u>

From the above data we get,

number of white balls = 8

Number of black balls = 20

total number of balls = 8 + 20 = 28

Probability of getting black ball = number of black ball/Total number of balls

 = 20/28 = 5/7

The correct answer is last option

5/7

Answer:

I is clear that, the linear equation 5x+12=5x-7 has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Checking the first option:</u>

\frac{2}{3}\left(9x+6\right)=6x+4

6x+4=6x+4

\mathrm{Subtract\:}4\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}

6x+4-4=6x+4-4

6x=6x

\mathrm{Subtract\:}6x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}

6x-6x=6x-6x

0=0

\mathrm{Both\:sides\:are\:equal}

\mathrm{True\:for\:all}\:x

<u>Checking the 2nd option:</u>

5x+12=5x-7

\mathrm{Subtract\:}5x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}

5x+12-5x=5x-7-5x

\mathrm{Simplify}

12=-7

\mathrm{The\:sides\:are\:not\:equal}

\mathrm{No\:Solution}

<u>Checking the 3rd option:</u>

4x+7=3x+7

\mathrm{Subtract\:}7\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}

4x+7-7=3x+7-7

\mathrm{Simplify}

4x=3x

\mathrm{Subtract\:}3x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}

4x-3x=3x-3x

\mathrm{Simplify}

x=0

<u>Checking the 4th option:</u>

-3\left(2x-5\right)=15-6x

\mathrm{Subtract\:}15\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}

-6x+15-15=15-6x-15

\mathrm{Simplify}\

-6x=-6x

\mathrm{Add\:}6x\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}

-6x+6x=-6x+6x

\mathrm{Simplify}

\mathrm{Both\:sides\:are\:equal}

\mathrm{True\:for\:all}\:x

Result:

Therefore, from the above calculations it is clear that, the linear equation

5x+12=5x-7 has no solution.

A is plotted on a coordinate grid at start bracket 3 and 1 over 2, negative 1 end bracket.. Choose the correct grid that best sh
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

A coordinate grid that shows a point located halfway between 3 and 4 units to the right and 1 unit down from the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

In a coordinate grid, the y axis is plotted on the vertical axis and the x axis is plotted on the horizontal axis. A is plotted on a coordinate grid at (3\frac{1}{2},-1) i.e (\frac{7}{2},-1). Above the origin is the positive y axis, below the origin is the negative y axis, right of the origin is the positive x axis and left of the origin is the negative x axis.

To plot A on the coordinate axis we need to locate 3\frac{1}{2} on the x axis and -1 on the y axis.  3\frac{1}{2} is halfway between 3 and 4, since the x coordinate is positive it is located to the right between 3 and 4 and since the y coordinate is negative it is located 1 unit down from the origin.
