Answer:

The simplified form would ve -19 - 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we combine anything, we first must expand the expression by distributing the -3 to the terms in the parenthesis.

-7 - 3(4 - 2x) - 10x

-7 - 12 + 6x - 10x

Now we can combine the terms with and without variables.

gladu [14]

Answer:

There are 30 ounce of green paint 18 ounces blue paint was needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

In order to make green paint a 2:3 ratio of blue paint and yellow paint is used.

Assume 2x blue paint and 3x yellow paint required to make 30 ounce of green paint.

According to the problem,

2x+3x=30

⇒5x=30

$\Rightarrow x=\frac {30}{5}$

⇒ x=6

The amount of blue paint is = 2×6

=12 ounces

The amount yellow paint is = (3×6)

= 18 ounces

There are 30 ounce of green paint 18 ounces blue paint was needed.

Find the z-score such as 88% of the area under the normal curve is to the left of the z-score

jok3333 [9.3K]

If you have a calculator with statistical functions, that's the way to go.

On my TI-83, I typed in invNorm(0.88) and got the result z = 1.17.

88% of the area under the normal curve is to the left of z = 1.17.

Solve for x.<br> Sqrt8 (Sqrt2 - x) = 11

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: $\frac{-7\sqrt{2} }{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, let's get rid of the parentheses. We can multiply it out to get $\sqrt{16}-x\sqrt{8} =11$ . We know that the square root of 16 is ±4, so now our equation is ±4 - $x\sqrt{8}$ =11. I'm guessing since the problem only has one solution it's most likely only positive 4, so let's revise our equation to 4 - $x\sqrt{8}$ =11. We can use inverse operations to make the a little easier to solve: -7= $x\sqrt{8}$ . We divide both sides by $\sqrt{8}$ to get $\frac{-7}{\sqrt{8} } =x$ , which we can rationalize (remove the square root from the denominator so that it's a proper answer) by multiplying by $\frac{\sqrt{8} }{\sqrt{8} }$ (which is equal to one so we can use it) which is equal to $\frac{-7\sqrt{8} }{8}$ . Let's finish this by simplifying it. $\sqrt{8} =2\sqrt{2}$ (2x $2^{2}$ ). We can simplify it further by simplifying the 2, making it $\frac{-7\sqrt{2} }{4}$ .
