Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

-2(x + 5) = -2

-2(x) -2(5) = -2

Multiply:

-2(x) -2(5) = -2

-2x - 10 = -2

Add 10 on both sides:

-2x - 10 = -2

      +10    +10

-2x = 8

Divide by -2 on both sides:

-2x = 8

/-2     /-2

x = -4

An animal shelter spends three dollars per day to take care for each bird and seven dollars per day take care for each cat Alexa
NikAS [45]

Answer:

There were 16 birds  at the shelter on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cats and birds on Wednesday = 34

let the number of birds on Wednesday = b

Then number of cats = (34 -b)

The rate of taking care of each bird in shelter = $3

The rate of taking care of each cat in shelter = $7

Total amount spent by shelter on Wednesday = $174

So, according to the question

b x ($3)  +  (34 -b) ($7) =  $ 174

or,  3b + 238 - 7b = 174

or, 4b = 64

⇒ b = 64/4 = 16

Hence, the number of birds in shelter on Wednesday = b = 16

and  Number of cats = 34 - 16 = 18

of people of the same sex and similar ages follow a Normal distribution reasonably closely. Weights, on the other hand, are not
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Right-skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the weight distributed is skewed, because the mean and the median are not equal.

Moreover, the distribution is right-skewed because the mean is greater than the median and because the mean is influenced by the tail of large values.
