Solve for x: 2/3x-1=5

Mathematics

X = 9. This is because if we add 1 to both sides (to make it easier to isolate x), then we get 2/3=6. Multiplying both sides by 3, we get 2x = 18. Dividing both sides by 2 (to isolate x), we get x = 9. I hope this helps! :D

Fofino [41]

Answer:

The probability of hitting a single or a double is 1/5 or 20% or 20/100 or 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

In probability, whenever we are to answer an ‘or’ question, we add up the probabilities involved.

The probability of hitting a single is 15%, that is same as 15/100 or just simply 0.15

The probability of hitting a double is 5%, that is simply 5/100 or just simply 0.05

The probability of hitting a single or a double = Probability of hitting a single + Probability of hitting a double = 0.15 + 0.05 = 0.20 or 20/100 or 1/5

A necklace regularly sells for $18.00. the store advertises a 15% discount. what is the sale price of the necklace in dollars
SSSSS [86.1K]
I can solve with 2 methods:

I. Because the discount is 15 % of 18 $ , the price will be (100-15=85) 85 % of 18 $
18*85/100= 15,3 $ ( the sale price)

II. The discount is 15 % of 18$
15*18/100= 2,7$  ( the discount)
then I decrease it from the regularly price
18$-2,7$=15,3 $ (the sale price)

Personally I believe the first is an easier method.
I hope you understand and you can apply this in every similary problem.
