Hello!

First of all, let's undo the square roots by squaring both sides.

6x+2=9x-8

We subtract 9x from both sides.

-3x+2=-8

We subtract 2 from both sides.

-3x= -10

We divide both sides by -3.

x=10/3

I hope this helps!

\sqrt{6x+2}=\sqrt{9x-8}\qquad \left(x\geq-\dfrac{1}{3} \wedge x\geq \dfrac{8}{9}\implies x\geq \dfrac{8}{9}\right)\\\\ 6x+2=9x-8\\\\ 3x=10\\\\ x=\dfrac{10}{3}

For each day enter the number of hours worked. Use the format shown in Model 1 and answer in terms of a reduced fraction.
natulia [17]
It is often easiest to use "military time". That is, add 12 to all the afternoon numbers and do the subtraction in the usual way. Of course, 1 hour = 60 minutes, so 10 minutes = 10/60 hour = 1/6 hour.

Mon: 15:10 -8:00 = 7:10 = 7 1/6

Tue: 15:25 -8:05 = 7:20 = 7 1/3

Wed: 14:30 -8:00 = 6:30 = 6 1/2

Thur: 14:45 -7:55 = 7:(-10) = 6:50 = 6 5/6

Fri: 15:38 -7:58 = 8:(-20) = 7:40 = 7 2/3

Some calculators have nice features for working with degrees, minutes, and seconds. In this context, degrees and hours are the same thing. That is, the base-60 arithmetic is the same whether you consider the numbers to be hours or degrees. Similarly, some calculators convert nicely between decimal fractions and mixed numbers. In short, a suitable calculator will almost do this math for you. (You just need to add 12 to all the numbers in the column on the right.)

A standard six-sided die is rolled twice and the top faces are observed. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers on
melisa1 [442]

<u>Answer: </u>

A standard six-sided die is rolled twice and the top faces are observed and the probability that the sum of the numbers on the top faces is 10 is \frac{1}{12}

<u>Solution: </u>

The sample space of two dice outcomes is given as follows:

{(1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6)

(2, 1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3, 1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4, 1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5, 1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6, 1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6) }

Total number of events n(s) = 36

Expected Outcomes = {(4, 6), (5, 5), (6, 4)}

Number of favorable outcomes n(E) = 3

Probability (sum of numbers on the top faces is 10) = \frac{n(E)}{n(s)} = \frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{12}

Therefore the probability that the sum of the numbers on the top faces is 10 is \frac{1}{12}
