Answer:

  $1.45

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question, we would like to have an equation that has the cost of a game as its only variable. That is, we would like to eliminate the cost of a ride from the system of equations we must write.

Let g and r represents the costs of a game and a ride, respectively. Then the expenses of the two carnival-goers can be described by ...

  5g +6r = 11.75

  7g +8r = 16.15

We note that the ratio of coefficients in the variable (r) that we want to eliminate is 3:4. So we can subtract 4 times the first equation from 3 times the second to eliminate that variable.

  3(7g +8r) -4(5g +6r) = 3(16.15) -4(11.75)

  g = 1.45 . . . . . . simplify

The cost to play one game was $1.45.

6-4x=6x-8x+8<br><br> find the value of x
ad-work [718]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

6 − 4x = 6x − 8x + 8

Combine 6x and −8x to get −2x.

6 − 4x = −2x + 8

Add 2x to both sides.

6 − 4x + 2x = 8

Combine −4x and 2x to get −2x.

6 − 2x = 8

Subtract 6 from both sides.

−2x = 8 − 6

Subtract 6 from 8 to get 2.

−2x = 2

Divide both sides by −2.

x = \frac{2}{-2}

Divide 2 by −2 to get −1.

x = 1

Hope this helps and have a great day! =D

Help please?!?!??!?!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?

Answer:

16.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is defined by the formula: the number of desirable outcomes over the total outcomes. The total number of outcomes is the sum of all shoes that he could possibly pick:

5 + 7 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 2 + 3 = 36

And the desirable outcomes are those where he picks brown boots, which is 6 outcomes.

Using the formula for probability, we get the expression: 6/36 to represent the probability. It simplifies to 1/6 which is about 16.7%
