Don’t know the answer I jus need to answer so I can ask another question
Answer:
I think it's 1/6 for the cube and 1/2 for the coin. so it would be 2/8 which would be 1/4 simplified, so in decimal form the probability is .25
3x + 14 = 143
3x = 129
X = 43
If this is what you mean..?
In order to do this you would work backward from the answer.
You have x = 25 and ant to include and addition. As we are working backwards, we use the opposite operation to addition - subtraction. We'll make it an easy number so we will subtract 15 to get to 10.
So far it looks like 10 = 15 + x
Now, to include a division, we want to do the opposite again, multiplication. Pick any number to multiply 10 by - for this example we'll choose 7.
7 x 10 = 70
Now we can write out the equation -
70/7 + 15 = x
No brackets are required as Division comes before addition in BIDMAS.
An alternate choice would be to have x the other side of the '='
To do this, multiply x by a number of choice (for example 3) to make the divison section of the equation. This makes 75. This can be written as a fraction. 75/x = 3
Next, for the addition, whatever happens on one side, the exact same happens on the other. Pick any number to add on (e.g. 5) and re-write the equation.
75/x + 5 = 8
Sorry if this doesn't make perfect sense
