I don't know.  But I know how to find it.  Let's work it out together:

                                              <u>5x  =  2x + 20</u>

Subtract  2x  from each side:    3x  =  20

Divide each side by  3 :              <em>x  =  20/3</em>  or    ( 6 and 2/3 ).

9x-7=-7 how do you solve this problem
borishaifa [10]
<span>9x-7=-7 
You would add 7 to both sides because you want to get to the point were your variable is alone. 9x = 0 Then you would dicide each side by 9 because after doing this your variable would be alone. x = 0 would be your final answer.

Earth’s surface is approximately 70% water. There is no water on the surface of Mars, and its diameter is roughly
Pie

Answer:

  Earth

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't need scientific notation.

The areas of similar figures are proportional to the square of their linear scale factor. If Mars is 1/2 the diameter of Earth, its total surface area is (1/2)² = 1/4 that of Earth.

That is, the land area of Mars is 25% of the total area of Earth.

The land area of Earth is 1-70% = 30% of the total area of Earth. 30% is more than 25%.

Earth has more land area than Mars.

The lifetimes of 10,000 watch batteries are normally distributed the mean lifetime is 500 days the standard deviation is 60 days
Lelu [443]
Given:
μ = 500 days, the population mean
σ = 60 days, the population standard deviation

Therefore
μ + σ = 560
μ - σ = 440
μ + 2σ = 620
μ - 2σ = 380
μ + 3σ = 680
μ - 3σ = 320

The figure shown below illustrates the normal distribution
About 68% of the total area lies in x = (μ-σ, μ+σ)
About 95% of the total area lies in x = (μ-2σ, μ+2σ)
About 99.7% of the total area lies in x = (μ-3σ, μ+3σ).
