The coefficient of b (that is, 2) divides into 2b and also into 8, so it is a factor (a value that is multiplied by another value to produce a term in an expression)
Answer:
<u>x = 5</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Equating the terms :
Add 2 on both sides :
- x + 3 + 2 = 2x - 2 + 2
- x + 5 = 2x
Subtract x from both sides :
- x + 5 - x = 2x - x
- <u>x = 5</u>
3 blue, 2 red, 5 white........total of 10 sweaters
probability that red is picked first : 2/10 reduces to 1/5
replace
probability of second pick being white : 5/10 reduces to 1/2
replace
probability of third pick being blue : 3/10
probability of all of this happening : 1/5 * 1/2 * 3/10 = 3/100 <==
Assuming she bought one pack of each and that’s all she can get.
She can make 42 arrangements with 4 balloons each:
2yellow
1blue
1red
(Having 28 red left over)
Good luck, again we are assuming she bought the balloons because it says “balloon packs come in”
