Solve the equation 0.25 (8z - 4) = z + 8 - 2z

Mathematics

Distribute
2z-1=z+8-2z
add like terms
2z-1=-z+8
add z to both sides
3z-1=8
add 1 to both sides
3z=9
divide both sides by 3
z=3

First you have to combine the like terms of z and 2z on the left side. Then you must distribute the 0.25 to 8z and -4. So then your equation should look like this: 
2z - 1 = 8 - 1z
So now you add 1z to both sides. The 1z on the right cancels out and now you have 3z - 1 = 8
Next you add 1 to both sides and it cancels out on the left: 3z = 9
Then you just divide by 3 on both sides to get the variable by itself. The 3 on the left cancels out and 9 divided by 3 equals 3! So z = 3

You have 200 items that cost $20 and you are selling them at the price of $100.
allochka39001 [22]

Your total profit is $13,000. First you bought the 200 items for $20 each. That costs $4,000. Then you sold $50 of the items at $100 each. That’s $5,000. So already you’re in the green. You’ve already made $1,000 profit. Then you sold the rest of the items at a 20% discount. 150 items multiplied by $80 is $12,000. $12,000 plus the $1,000 equals $13,000 total.

What is the probability of tossing a penny and landing on heads 3 times in a row
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Suppose you have a fair coin: this means it has a 50% chance of landing heads up and a 50% chance of landing tails up. Suppose you flip it three times and these flips are independent. What is the probability that it lands heads up, then tails up, then heads up? So the answer is 1/8, or 12.5%.

Solve the equation by completing the square
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

s = - 1 ± \sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

s² + 2s - 6 = 0 ( add 6 to both sides )

s² + 2s = 6

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the s- term )² to both sides

s² + 2(1)s + 1 = 6 + 1

(s + 1)² = 7 ( take the square root of both sides )

s + 1 = ± \sqrt{7} ( subtract 1 from both sides )

s = - 1 ± \sqrt{7}

Thus

s = - 1 - \sqrt{7} , s = - 1 + \sqrt{7}
