Answer:

The solution of the equation 9x=7(x+2) is:

Option D) 7

Step-by-step explanation:

9x=7(x+2)

Eliminating the parentheses applying distributive property:

9x=7(x)+7(2)

Multiplying:

9x=7x+14

Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting 7x both sides of the equation:

9x-7x=7x+14-7x

Subtracting:

2x=14

Solving for x: Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:

2x/2=14/2

Dividing:

x=7

Solution: x=7 (option D)

You make 70% of the basketball shots you take. If you
Temka [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that you make one shot is 70%, or 0.7.

The probability that you make 10 shots is the probability that you make 10 shots in a row. This means that you have to make the first shot AND the second shot AND the third shot and so on. The probability of two independent events both happening is P(A) * P(B), and we can apply that here. Each shot has a 0.7 chance of success, so we multiply that 10 times to get (0.7)¹⁰=0.0282475249

The probability that you make 9 shots can be represented by the following combinations, with M representing a miss and S representing a make.

MSSSSSSSSS

SMSSSSSSSS

SSMSSSSSSS

and so on. There are 10 possible combinations as there are 10 possible places where you can miss but still make 9. The probability of one of these combinations happening is

(0.3) for the miss multiplied by the probability of all the rest making it, or (0.7)⁹ = 0.3 * 0.7⁹ = 0.0121060821

Then, we multiply by 10 because there are 10 possible combinations, resulting in 0.121060821. Add this to the probability of making all 10 to get

0.0282475249 +  0.121060821 = 0.1493083459

How many distinct arrangements of four letters (without repeats) from the set {a, b, c, d, e} are possible? 15?
larisa [96]
From the pool of 5 letters, we're picking 4. We can arrange the 4 we picked in 4!=24 ways.

But there are 5 ways of *not* picking the remaining letter. To account for the arrangements containing the letter not picked, we multiply this total by 5.

Put another way, suppose we drew a, b, c, and d, but not e. We have 24 possible arrangements for these 4 letters, but for any distinct arrangement there are 5 ways of replacing any letter with e.

So the number of arrangements we can actually make is 5!=120.

suppose a triangle has two sides of length 2 and 3 and that the angle between these two sides is 60. what is the length of the t
arlik [135]

Answer:

  √7 ≈ 2.646

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines is applicable. It tells you ...

  c² = a² + b² - 2ab·cos(C) . . . . . where a, b, c are triangle side lengths, and angle C is opposite side c.

Filling in the given information, you have ...

  c² = 2² + 3² - 2·2·3·cos(60°) = 4 + 9 - 12·(1/2) = 7

  c = √7 ≈ 2.646

The length of the third side is √7, about 2.646 units.
