8x –3(5x–2)=7–10x Solve this equation with a clear value for x

Answer:

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x –3(5x–2)=7–10x

Distribute

8x - 15x +6 = 7-10x

Combine like terms

-7x + 6 = 7- 10x

Add 10x to each side

-7x +10x+ 6 = 7- 10x+10x

3x+6 = 7

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6 =7-6

3x = 1

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 1/3

x = 1/3

Answer: x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: Start by changing the -3 to plus a negative 3 so you know that you are distributing a -3 through the parentheses.

-3(5x) is -15x and -3(-2) is 6.

So we have 8x - 15x + 6 = 7 - 10x.

Simplifying the left side further gives us -7x + 6 = 7 - 10x.

Now subtract 6 from both sides to get -7x = 1 - 10x.

Now add 10x to both sides to get 3x = 1.

From here it should be easy to find that <em>x = 1/3</em>.

I haven’t done math in forever, do you want us to simplify it? Bc it would be 2x+8=-16=4x+6 but I’m not sure

<span>3. Two isosceles right triangles

Every square has 4 right angles, so each triangle will have one right triangle, which makes the triangles, right triangles. 

They are isosceles because all sides of the square are the same, though the diagonal is not.

Hope this helps :)

Which statement is correct for the graph of the specified function?
mash [69]

The correct statement regarding the function plotted in the graph is:

C) The maximum value of the quadratic function occurs at y = 4.

<h3>What is the rate of change of the linear function?</h3>

When x = 0, y = -7, and when x = -5, y = 8, hence the rate of change(change in y divided by change in x) is given by:

R = [8 - (-7)]/-5 - 0 = 15/-5 = -3

<h3>What is the maximum value of the quadratic function?</h3>

It is concave down, hence it has only a maximum value at y = 4 and not a minimum value, hence option C is correct.

A coin is to be spun 25 times. Let x be the number of spins that result in heads (H). Consider the following rule for deciding w
larisa [96]

Answer:

0.0433

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a fixed number of trials (N = 25) and the probability of getting heads is always p = 0.05, we are going to treat this as a binomial distribution.

Using a binomial probability calculator, we find that the probability of obtaining heads from 8 to 17 times is 0.9567 given that the con is fair. The probability of obtaining any other value given that the coin is fair is going to be:

1 - 0.9567 = 0.0433

Since we are going to conclude that the coin is baised if either x<8 or x>17, the probability of judging the coin to be baised when it is actually fair is 4.33%
