Answer:

x = 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

- 15 + 12x = 5x + 7 - 3x \\  + 12x - 5x + 3x = 15 + 7 \\ 10x = 22 \\  \frac{10x}{10}  =  \frac{22}{10}  \\ x = 2.2

Answer: x=\frac{11}{5}

<u>Simplify both sides of the equation</u>

<u></u>-15+12x=5x+7+-3x<u></u>

<u></u>12x-15=(5x+-3x)+(7) (Combine Like Terms)

12x-15=2x+7

<u>Subtract 2x from both sides</u>

<u></u>12x-15-2x=2x+7-2x\\10x-15=7<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Divide both sides by 10</u>

<u></u>\frac{10x}{10} =\frac{22}{10}<u></u>

<u></u>x=\frac{11}{5}<u></u>

<u></u>

Which techniques can be used to evaluate the expression 12.75/<br><br> 1.5
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 12.75/1.5. The technique in solving the division expression is as shown

First we can write the decimals as fraction as shown;

12.75 = 1275/100

1.5 = 15/10

12.75/1.5 = (1275/100)÷(15/10)

12.75/1.5 = 1275/100×10/15

12.75/1.5 = 1275/10 × 1/15

12.75/1.5 = 1275/150

12.75/1.5 = 8.5

Hence the result of the division is 8.5

There are 50 tickets in a raffle bag, and 10 of the tickets belong to Gary. A ticket is chosen at random, and the ticket owner's
Helga [31]
The probability of it happening once is 1/5, since 10/50 simplifies to 1/5. Because the ticket goes back in the bag, the probability stays constant at 1/5.

For it to happen twice, you multiply the probability of it happening once, twice.

1/5 • 1/5 = 1/25 probability of it being Gary's name twice in a row.
