35x – 13 x = x – 1

⇒ 22 x = x - 1

⇒ 22x - x = -1

⇒ 21x = -1

⇒ x = -1/21

Thus,the value of x is -1/21

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms and get x by itself on one side of the equation.

$35x - 13x = x - 1 \\ 22x - x = - 1 \\ 21x = - 1 \\ x = - \frac{1}{21}$

Answer:

$x = - \frac{1}{21}$

HELP ASAP ITS SO HARD! Kelsey did the following division problem. Her teacher says that the quotient she found is wrong. −2 5/6

SpyIntel [72]

Part A

Her steps were

$-2 \frac{5}{6} \div 1 \frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \div \frac{4}{3}\\\\-\frac{6}{17} \times \frac{3}{4}\\\\-\frac{6\times 3}{17\times4}\\\\-\frac{18}{68}\\\\-\frac{9}{34}\\\\$

Kelsey made a mistake on line 3. Note how the 17/6 flips to 6/17. This is not correct. You keep the first fraction the same, but you do flip the second fraction. This only applies when you divide two fractions.

The third step should look like $-\frac{17}{6}\times \frac{3}{4}$

=======================================================

Part B

Here's what she should have written

$-2 \frac{5}{6} \div 1 \frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \div \frac{4}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \times \frac{3}{4}\\\\-\frac{17\times 3}{6\times 4}\\\\-\frac{51}{24}\\\\-\frac{17}{8}\\\\$

If you want to convert that improper fraction to a mixed number, then you could do something like this

$-\frac{17}{8} = -\frac{16+1}{8}\\\\-\frac{17}{8} = -\frac{16}{8}-\frac{1}{8}\\\\-\frac{17}{8} = -2 \frac{1}{8}\\\\$

Or you could divide 17 over 8 using long division to get 2 remainder 1. The 2 is the quotient that goes to the left of the 1/8. The remainder of 1 is the numerator of 1/8.

$\frac{\sqrt{3}y\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}y\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $y:$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $\sqrt{y} :$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}}{4\sqrt{5}}$

Multiply $\sqrt{5}$ on the numerator and denominator:

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}\sqrt{5}}{4\sqrt{5}\sqrt{5}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{15}\sqrt{x}}{20}$

Classify the following statement as an example of classical probability, empirical probability, or subjective probability. Exp

AlekseyPX

Answer:

It is a case of classical probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are selecting a number between 1 and 100 randomly which is divisible by 14 the only favorable cases are 14,28,42,56,70,84,98 which are 7 cases out of 100 total numbers thus the required probability becomes

$P(E)=\frac{7}{100}=0.07$
