-5 * (3x - 4) + 4= 114

-15x +20 + 4 = 114

-15x = 114 - 24

-15x = 90

x = 90 : (-15)

x = -6

Subtract 4 from both sides:

-5(3x - 4) = 110

There is a coefficient for the term in parentheses: -5. To get rid of this coefficient, divide both sides by -5:

3x - 4 = -22

Add 4 to both sides:

3x = -18

Divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself:

\boxed{x = -6}

A padlock has a four-digit code that includes digits from 0 to 9, inclusive. What is the probability that the code does not cons
Eduardwww [97]
Since there is no repetition allowed, there are 10 possibilities for the 1st digit, 9 for the 2nd, 8 for the 3rd, and 7 for the 4th. This gives a total of (10)(9)(8)(7) = 5040 four-digit codes.
For all odd digits to be used, there are 5 possibilities for the 1st digit (1,3,5,7,9), 4 for the 2nd, 3 for the 3rd, 2 for the 4th. This gives a total of (5)(4)(3)(2) = 120 codes that only use odd digits.
Therefore there are 5040 - 120 = 4920 codes that do not consist of all odd digits. The probability is 4920/5040 = 41/42.

A map show a town with an area of 3.5 inches.If the map has a scale of 1 inch:4 miles,what is the actual area of the town?
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The actual area of the town is 14 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know that the scale is 1 inch:4 miles and that the map shows a town with an area of 3.5 inches, you can expressed this as follows:

Scale: 1 inch:4 miles

map area: 3.5 inches

If the actual area is x, you can say that:

3.5:x=1:4

This would be:

\frac{3.5}{x}=\frac{1}{4}

Now, you can solve for x:

x=(3.5*4)/1

x=14

According to this, the answer is that the actual area of the town is 14 miles.
