The value of "x" is 5.5

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to solve the proportion

\frac{3x - 4}{14} = \frac{9}{10}

We can solve the above given proportion for "x" by cross multiplying

Multiply the numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction

Multiply the numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction

Set the two products equal to each other

Solve for the variable "x"

\rightarrow \frac{3x - 4}{14} = \frac{9}{10}\\\\\rightarrow 10(3x - 4) = 14 \times 9\\\\\rightarrow 30x - 40 = 126\\\\\rightarrow 30x = 126 + 40\\\\\rightarrow 30x = 166\\\\\rightarrow x = 5.533

On rounding to nearest tenth we get 5.5

Thus value of "x" is 5.5

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:\frac{^{10}C_5}{^{12}C_5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a total of 12 diesel engines

out of which 2 are defective

Company have to choose 5 good engines to ship.

Therefore no of ways in good engines are selected is ^{10}C_5

no of ways in which any 5 engines are selected from a total of 12 engines is

^{12}C_5

Therefore the required probability =\frac{^{10}C_5}{^{12}C_5}

=\frac{7}{22}=0.318

Answer:

s = 130 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

decagon has a 1,440 degrees interior angles

equation: 1,440 = s + 1310

to find s, add all the known angles

⇒ s + 150 + 170 + 160 + 130 +120 + 160 + 105 + 160 +155

⇒ s + 1,310

equation:

s + 1310 = 1440

subtract each side by 1310

⇒ s + 1310 - 1310 = 1440 - 1310

⇒ s = 130
