We have an equation with parentheses. To make our lives easier, first get rid of the parentheses. We do this by using the distributive property.

It is used like this: a(b + c) = ab + ac.

Use the distributive property on the left-hand side.

3(x - 1) = 6
3x - 3 = 6

Now we have an equation that is easier.

The x variable is being multiplied by 3 and added to -3.
Reverse all of these operations with their inverse operation.

3x - 3 = 6
3x = 9 <--- I got rid of the -3 term by using the inverse of subtraction. Addition.
                  And I did the same for both sides to keep the equation true.
x = 3 <--- The inverse of multiplication is division.
                So, I divided both sides by 3.

So, x is equal to 3.

Given angle ABC shown on the coordinate plane below.
Crank

The attached image shows the image of A"B"C" after the transformation

<h3>What is the transformation of the triangle about?</h3>

The transformation rule states:

A"B"C" = Ro90° (T(-4,3)(ABC))

This implies that one need to rotate the triangle in a 90⁰ clockwise direction, and then one need to translate the triangle.

Using the image shown, the coordinates of ABC are;

A = (-1, 2)

B = (1, 4)

C = (3, -1)

The 90⁰ rule clockwise rotation  will be:

(x,y) -- (y,-x)

So, when translated, it will be:

A' = (2, 1)

B' = (4, -1)

C' = (-1, -3)

Then the translation of the triangle using T(-4,3):

(x, y) -  (x - 4, y + 3)

So, there is:

A'' = (-2, 4)

B'' = (0, 2)

C'' = (-5, 0)

You are going to roll two dice. Let the variable x = the sum of the numbers rolled. What is the probability that x = 9 ?
Vladimir79 [104]

The  first cube can land in any one of  6  ways.
The  second cube can land in any one of  6  ways.
Total number of ways that  2 dice can land = (6 x 6) = 36 ways.

For any of these ways, the sum of the numbers rolled is  9 :

3, 6
4, 5
5, 4
6, 3

There are  4  ways to roll a 9, out of a total of  36  ways that
the dice can land.  So the probability of rolling a  9  is

       4 / 36  =  1 / 9  =  <em>11-1/9 percent</em>
