Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y=x-5 add 5 to both sides
y+5 = x-5+5
x= y+5
Answer:
12/20, or 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the probability of Raymond not picking red lillies, we first must establish the total amount Raymond can choose from as well as the amount of non-red lillies.
The total amount Raymond can choose from is the amount of bouqets. There are 8 red ones, 5 pink ones, and 7 violet ones. This means that there are 8+5+7=20 total bouquets.
The amount of non-red lillies is determined because we are asked to find the probability of selecting a non-red bouquet. We find the number of non-red bouquets by subtracting the total (20) by the number of red bouquets (8) to get 12.
Therefore, the total amount is 20 and the number of non-red bouquets is 12. Thus, if Raymond picks one bouquet, the probability of him selecting a non-red one is 12/20, or 3/5. The probability of him picking up a red bouquet, similarly, would be 8/20, as there are 8 options of red bouquets out of 20 total
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3 = -3x -2
2x = -3x -5
5x = -5
x= -1
First, simplify the equation.
8x - 2x - 2 = 7x + 8
Now subtract 8 on both sides to get rid of the one on the right side.
8x - 2x - 10 = 7x
Solve the left side.
6x - 10 = 7x
Subtract 6x from both sides.
-20 = x
Therefore, x = -20.
