x = 4

First you combine like terms:

8 + 4x = 24

Then solve:

4x = 24 - 8

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

8 - 2x + 6x = 24

The first step is to simply both sides of the equation.

8+-2x+6x=24

(−2x+6x)+(8)=24

4x + 8 = 24

The second step is to subtract 8 from both sides.

4x + 8 -8 = 24 - 8

4x = 16

The third and final step is to divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 16/4

x = 4.

Write the equation of a linear line that has a slope of 4 and has a y intercept of 3

Schach [20]

Linear line formula: y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

In this case the question gives us what we need to substitute.

m = 4

b = 3

y = 4x + 3

A power system will collapse if a ground fault occurs on any two of lines A, B, and C simultaneously. Assume that ground faults

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

0.000298 = 0.0298% probability that the system will collapse

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of possible ways the system can fail:

2 lines from a set of 3 fail, or all three fail.

Two from a set of 3:

Can be A and B, A and C, or B and C. Three possible outcomes then.

The probability of each is:

0.01*0.01*0.99

Two failling, each with 0.01 probability, and 1 working, with 0.99 probability.

All three:

Each with 0.01 probability.

a) What is the probability that the system will collapse

Both cases, so

$p = 3*(0.01)^2*0.99 + (0.01)^3 = 0.000298$

0.000298 = 0.0298% probability that the system will collapse
