Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x -8 =8x +4/2

3x -8 =8x +2

3x -3x -8 = 8x -3x +2 (subtract 3x both sides )

-8 = 5x +2

-8-2 =5x+2 -2 (subtract 2 both sides )

-10 =5x

-10/5 = 5x/5 (divide 5 both sides)

-2 = x

Answer:

$\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of white balls = 24

Number of black balls = 16

Unknown:

The probability that white ball is drawn at random = ?

Solution:

The probability of an event is the likelihood of such an event to occur. That an event will occur has a probability of 1, it will not occur have a probability of zero.

In this problem, the total number of outcomes of drawing any ball has sample space of (24 + 16)outcomes = 40outcomes.

Probability of an event = $\frac{number of successful outcome}{sample space}$

Pr(white balls) = $\frac{24}{40}$ = $\frac{3}{5}$
