To find the answer, you do these steps.

1) Simplify the brackets.
5 - x - 5 > -2(x + 4)

2) Put 5 - x - 5 as -x

-x > -2(x + 4)

3) Solve x + 4

-x > -2x - 8

4) Add 2x to both sides of equation.

-x + 2x > -8

5) Do -x + 2x to x

x > -8

Your answer is A.

Hope this helps! ☺♥

Alex73 [517]
We need to build a system of equations:

a + b + c = 127......(1)
b  - c = 13..............(2)
a - b - c = 41..........(3)

adding equations (1) and (3):-

2a = 168
a = 84   
Substituting for in equation (1)-
84 + b + c = 127
b   + c = 43...........(4)
Adding equations (2) and (4):-
2b = 56 

b = 28
Finally from equation (2)
c = 28-13 = 15

Answer is Country a had 84 points , b had 28 points and c had 15 points.

An urn contains 13 red marbles and 11 blue marbles. 12 marbles are chosen at random. What is the probability that 7 red marbles
algol13

The probability of selecting or choosing seven marbles is 0.29.

Let E be the event of choosing seven red marbles.

According to the given.

Total number of balls in an urn = 13 + 11 = 24

Total number of red marbles = 13

Total number of blue marbles = 12

Now, the total number of ways of selecting 12 marbles from 24 = ^{24} C_{12}

And the number of ways of selecting 7 red marbles = ^{13} C_{7} \times ^{11} C_{5}

As, we know that, the probability of any event can be calculated as by taking the ratio of favroble outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

Therefore, the probability of selecting or choosing seven marbles is given by

P(E) = \frac{^{13}C_{7}\times\ ^{11} C_{5}   }{^{24} C_{12} }

⇒ P(E) = \frac{\frac{13!\times11!}{7!\times6!\times 5!\times6! } }{\frac{24!}{12!12!} }

⇒ P(E) =  792792/2704156

⇒P(E) = 0.29

Hence, the probability of selecting or choosing seven marbles is 0.29.
