What is the solution to the following equation? |3x - 6| = 10

Mathematics
1 answer:
lorasvet [3.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Set up the following two equations, because of the absolute value:

3x-6=10

3x-6=-10

2) Solve both equations:

3x=16

3x=-4

3) Divide both sides by 3:

x=16/3

x=-4/3

4) Make fractions proper:

x=5 1/3

x=-1 1/3

Hey there!

\boxed{x=1;y=4}

3x + y = 7 \\ \\ &#10;    6x + 4y = 22

y = -3x + 7 \\ \\ Plug \ this \ in \ for \ variable \ (y) \ in \ equation \ \\ \\ &#10;&#10;       6x + 4*(-3x+7) = 22 \\ \\ &#10;       -6x = -6 \\ \\ 6x=6 \ x+1 \\ \\ x=1 \ y=-3x+7 \\ \\ \boxed{y=-3(1)+7=4} \\ \\ \boxed{\boxed{x=1;y=4}}

I hope this helps you!

Name each polynomial by degree and number of terms .
laiz [17]

Answer:

Polynomials are classified according to their number of terms. 4x3 +3y + 3x2 has three terms, -12zy has 1 term, and 15 - x2 has two terms. As already mentioned, a polynomial with 1 term is a monomial. A polynomial with two terms is a binomial, and a polynomial with three terms is a trinomial.

A bag contains 6 red balls and 3 blue balls. 4 balls are selected at random. find the probability of selecting 4 red balls.
geniusboy [140]
Assuming that the balls are not replaced; 

\frac{6}{9}* \frac{5}{8}* \frac{4}{7}* \frac{3}{6}= 5/42 

(the numbers are decreasing in the denominator as you are presumably taking out the red balls. In the denominator, there is one less ball each time since you took out a red one). 

Therefore, the probability of selected 4 red balls consecutively without replacement is 5/42. 

Hope I Helped :)
