<span>2(x+4)=-5x+1
Use distributive property(Multiply 2 by x and 4).
2x + 8= -5x+1
Add 5x to both sides so that the variable x is only on one side
7x + 8=1
Subtract 8 from both sides
7x= -7
Divide 7 on both sides so that the only thing remaining on the left side is the variable x.
Final Answer: x= -1</span>

The average of three numbers is 45. two of the numbers are equal. the last number is 89. what are the two missing numbers?
trasher [3.6K]
The average of a set of data is equal to the sum of the values divided by the number of data present. So, if we have three numbers, the average would be:

let x, y and z represent the three numbers
average = x + y + z / 3 = 45

Two number are equal in value, so let x = y. Substituting the value to the expression of average,

45 = x + x + z / 3
45 = 2x + z / 3

It said that the last number is 89 so z is equal to 89.

45 = 2x + 89 / 3
135 = 2x + 89
46 = 2x
x = 23

Therefore, the two numbers are both 23.

A number cube has six sides. The probability of landing on any of the numbers is equal. The theoretical probability of rolling a 6 is 1/6. I expect a 6 to be rolled (1/6)(300), or 50 of 300 times
