Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 71 = 2x - 50

3x - 2x = -50 + 71

x = 21

Check:

3(21) - 71 = 2(21) - 50

63 - 71 = 42 - 50

-8 = -8

Answer: $x=21$

Subtract 2x from both sides

$3x-1-2x=2x-50-2x\\x-71=-50$

Add 71 to both sides

$x-71+71=-50+71\\x=21$

How many solutions are there to the following system of equations?

sweet [91]

$4x-8y=0 \\
\underline{-3x+8y=-7} \\
4x-3x=0-7 \\
x=-7 \\ \\
4x-8y=0 \\
4 \times (-7)-8y=0 \\
-28-8y=0 \\
-8y=28 \\
y=\frac{28}{-8} \\
y=-\frac{7}{2} \\ \\
 \left \{ {{x=-7} \atop {y=-\frac{7}{2}}} \right.$

There is one solution to this system of equations. The answer is B.

The probability that a newborn baby at a certain hospital is male is 50%. Find the probability that 7 or 8 out of 10 babies born

marin [14]

Answer:

0.1611

Step-by-step explanation:

Uaing the binomial probability relation :

p = 0.5 ; q = 1 - p = 0.5

n = 10

Using the relation :

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

P(x = 7) = 10C7 * 0.5^7 * 0.5^3

P(x = 7) = 0.1172

x = 8 ;

P(x = 8) = 10C7 * 0.5^7 * 0.5^3

P(x =8) = 0.0439

P(x = 7 or x = 8) = 0.1172 + 0.0439 = 0.1611

The sum is 294903.

_____
This is the sum of 15 terms of a geometric sequence with first term 9 and common ratio 2. That sum is given by the formula
$S_{n}=a\dfrac{r^{n}-1}{r-1}$
$S_{15}=9\dfrac{2^{15}-1}{2-1}=9\cdot(32768-1)=294903$
