Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 2 on both sides

7x+2=16

7x=14

Divide by 7 on both sides

x=2

Hope this helps! :)

Answer: x = 2

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for <em>x</em> in the equation you see here, our goal is to get <em>x</em> by itself.

Our first step will be to isolate the

term containing <em>x</em> which in this case is 7x.

To isolate 7x, we have to get rid of the +2 by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation. On the left, +2 and -2 cancel out and we're simply left with 7x. On the right, 16 - 2 simplifies to 14.

So we have 7x = 14.

Now divide both sides by 7 and we find that <em>x = 2</em>.

Cards are selected from a standard deck of 52, the results are recorded in the table. what is the empirical probability of not s
Cerrena [4.2K]

The table have the following results:

 

Hearts – 7

Diamonds – 4

Clubs – 8

Spades – 5

There is a total of 24

 

The question is asking for the probability of not selecting a heart.

So we need to add the probabilities of the diamonds, clubs, and spades since these suits are different from hearts.

So = 4 + 8 + 5 = 17

And we have a total of 24 cards

<span>Therefore the probability is 17/24. </span>
