Mathematics

Ratling [72]4 years ago

Answer:

Yes

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x - 5 = 3(1 - x) + 22

First distribute 3 into (1 - x)

We have

2x - 5 = 3 x 1 -3 x X + 22

2x - 5 = 3 - 3x + 22

The expression can be rearranged as

2x - 5 = 3 + 22 - 3x

2x - 5 = 25 - 3x

Add 3x to both sides

3x + 2x - 5 = 25 - 3x + 3x

5x - 5 = 25

Add five to both sides

5x - 5 + 5 = 25 + 5

5x = 30

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 30/5

x = 6

fiasKO [112]
<h3>Answer:  7/19</h3>

Explanation:

There are 7 blue marbles out of 4+7+8 = 11+8 = 19 total

The probability of selecting blue is therefore 7/19

We cannot reduce 7/19 any further because 7 and 19 have no common factors other than 1.

maksim [4K]
To find the median cancel out numbers on both sides, until one is left in the middle and if there are two in the middle add them up and divide by two. 

So in this case the median is

Solve for x. A. 19 B. 17 C. 15 D. 11
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

B. 17

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of intersecting secants outside of a circle, we have:

7 (7 + x) = 8 (13 + 8)

49 +7x = 8*21

7x = 168 - 49

7x = 119

x = 119/7

x = 17
