Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Three times a number increased by ten equal to twenty less than six times a number. Let the number be x.

3x + 10 = 6x-20

Add -6x and -10 on both sides.

3x-6x = -20-10

-3x=-30

Cancel the negative signs on both sides.

3x=30

Divide 3 on both sides.

x=30/3

x=10

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. <br><br> 3x+4y=8<br> X-Y=12
Margarita [4]

STEP 1: Multiply second equation by -3.

After multiplying we have the following system:

3x+4y−3x+3y=8=−36

STEP 2: add the two equations together to eliminate x from the system.

7y=−28

STEP 3: find y

<u>y=−4</u>

<u></u>

STEP 4: substitute the value for y into the original equation to solve for x.

3x+4(−4)=8

<u>x=8</u>

dem82 [27]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The probability of selecting a defective roll followed by another defective roll = \frac{1}{35}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of rolls in a box = 15

The number of defective items = 3

Two rolls are to be selected, one after the other. The probability of selecting a defective roll followed by another defective roll = ?

The probability that the first roll is detective = \frac{3}{15}

The probability that the second roll is detective = \frac{2}{14}

Required probability = (\frac{3}{15} ) (\frac{2}{14} )

= \frac{1}{35}
