Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (-5x + 7) = -6  (original problem)

-10x + 14 = -6  (distributive property)

         -14    -14  (inverse operation

-10x = -20  (addition)

-1/10 x -10x = -20 x -1/10  (inverse operation)

x = -20/-10 (multiply)

x = 2  (simplify)

One person is selected at random from a class of 20 males and 13 females. Find the odds against selecting a male and a female
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Odds for male= 1.538

Odds for female =  0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for odds, not a probability. A probability shows how much the chance for the event to happen, so it can be expressed as a percentage. Odds show how the event more likely to happen compared to the chance it did not happen. If an event has a 90% probability, the odds will be 90:10= 9

In this case, the odds of selecting a male will be:  

number of male : number of female= 20:13 = 1.538

The odds of selecting a female will be

number of female : number of male = 13/20 = 0.65
