Answer:

-88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N(x) be the number of students at NMS for a certain number of years.

Let S(x) be the number of students at SMS for a certain number of years.

Let x be the number of years.

N(x)=1240-25x

S(x)=800-30x

When # of students is equal, N(x)=S(x). Therefore, we are looking for the value of x (# of years) when 1240-25x=800-30x

Subtract 1240 from each side

-25x=-440-30x

Add 30x

5x=-400

x=-88 years

Check your numbers.

54 divided by _____ = -27
Nikitich [7]

54/-2 = -27

First, let's rewrite:

Let x represent the unknown number:

\frac{54}{x}=\text{ -27}

\begin{gathered} \frac{54}{x}\text{ = -27} \\ 54\text{ = -27x} \\ \text{Divide both sides by -27} \\ \frac{54}{-27}=\text{ }\frac{-27x}{-27} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} 27\times2\text{ = 54} \\ x\text{ = -2  (because we are dividing positive number by a negative number)} \\ So\text{ our answer will be negative} \end{gathered}

Hence, 54/-2 = -27

Pat picked a card from a standard deck, looked at it, and then put it back. He then picked a second card. What is the probabilit
AlekseyPX

Answer: 17/52

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 total cards in a standard deck.

The number of diamonds in a deck of cards is 13 and there are 4 jacks in a deck of cards.

So the propabibilty of Pat picking a diamond is 13/52 and the probability of Pat picking a jack is 4/52. Now you have to add the two probabilities together.

You do not remove any digits because Pat put the card back into the deck, he didn't take it away. So we do not take away from the total

13 + 4 = 17

You do not need to change the denominator cause 52 is the same.

So 17/52 is the probability of Pat picking a diamond or a jack

I hope this helped!
