Answer: 0.877

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag contains 15 basketballs

7 have defective valves.

8 are good

choose 3 out of the bag randomly

probability that at least 1 will have a defective valve = 1 - probability of none have a defect, so

P of no defect: 8/15 * 7/14 * 6/13 = 0.123

at least 1: 1 - 0.123 = 0.877

5x + 3 = 7x – 1. Find x<br><br> a. 1/3<br> b. ½<br> c. 1<br> d. 2
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to get like items on the same side(put the variables on one side and the non-variables on the other).  Remember anything you do on one side of the equal, you have to do on the other side, too.

5X+3=7X-1   I'm going to move the -1 first, but you don't have to as long as you keep the equation equal.

5X+3+1=7X-1+1    We know that +1-1 is zero and so is -1+1.  So

5X+3+1=7X      We don't need to keep that zero.

5X+4=7X         Now, we want to move the 5X over.

5X-5X+4=7X-5X    Simplify and get rid of the zero.

4=2X             Last, we have to divide to get the 2 away from the X.

4/2=2X/2            Not everyone know that slash mean divide, :-).

2=X

Solve the equation below for x.
svetlana [45]
If x + y = 5 and 3x = 2 then what you
do is:
3x = 2 and since you want the variable by itself you’d divide by 3... giving you an answer of x = 2/3 BUT YOURE NOT DONE YET
so now you plug what x equals (2/3) into the equation x + y = 5:
2/3 + y = 5
to solve this you have to subtract each side by 2/3 so x = 5 - 2/3
(5/1 - 2/3.... to get like denominators multiply the nominator and the denominator for 5/1 by 3 giving you: 15/3 - 2/3 = 13/3)
your final answer would be 13/3
