How do you solve 3x+7=x

vredina [299]

3x + 7 = x

First, subtract 3x from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 7 = x - 3x
Second, simplify x - 3x to -2x. / Your problem should look like: 7 = -2x
Third, divide both sides by -2. / Your problem should look like: $\frac{7}{-2}$ = x
Fourth, simplify $\frac{7}{-2}$ to $-\frac{7}{2}$ / Your problem should look like: $- \frac{7}{2}$ = x
Fifth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: x = $-\frac{7}{2}$

Answer as fraction: $-\frac{7}{2}$
Answer as decimal: -3.5

The expression 4g gives the number

jeka57 [31]

Answer: 16 quarts.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 quart = 1/4 gallon.

4 quarts = 1 gallon.

If you have 4 gallons, then you need to multiply 4 by 4, because every gallon is equal to 4 quarts.

4 x 4 = 16.

Therfore, there are 16 quarts in 4 gallons.

A couple has 2 children. what is the probability that both are girls if the older of the two is a girl?

12345 [234]

Assuming that the probability of boys and girls is equal (in reality slightly more boys than girls are born), the probability is 1/2, simply because the older girl's gender is given and therefore not a part of the probability.

This question comes from the 'boy or girl paradox', a.k.a. the Mrs Smith Problem.

In order to efficiently bid on a contract, a contractor wants to be 95% confident that his error is less than two hours in estim

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in order to efficiently bid on a contract, a contractor wants to be 95% confident that his error is less than two hours in estimating the average time it takes to install tile flooring.

Std deviation =4.5 errors

95% confidence interval = Mean±1.96*std dev

Hence we have

$1.96(\frac{4.5}{\sqrt{n} } )$

$\sqrt{n} \geq 4.41\\n\geq 19.4481$

Sample size should be 20.
