- 8x - 9 = - 21

Add 9 to both sides:

- 8x = - 12

Divide both sides by - 8:

x = -12/-8

x = -3/-2

x = 3/2 OR 1.5

Hope this answer helps :)

To do this equation first:

Add 9 to both sides so you can leave -8x alone.

-8x-9+9=-21+9

-8x=-12

Divide both sides by 8:

-8x/8=-12/8

x=3/2

Answer: x=3/2

s2 = 4 min

p = 0.9
Condition (x > 25)

We need to get the t-value between the two means and comparing it wit the t-value for the time of 25 minutes given that there is a 90% probability that the weather will be good. Simply use the t-test formula and use the t-test table to get the probability.

1) Find the values of 'a' and 'b' for the given parallelogram *
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram consecutive angle are supplementary, sum to 180, so

2a + 122 = 180 ( subtract 122 from both sides )

2a = 58 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 29

---------------

In a parallelogram the opposite sides are congruent, then

b + 6 = 10 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

b = 4
