Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 3 ( x - 2 ) = 21

Distribute

4x -3x +6 = 21

Combine like terms

x+6 = 21

Subtract 6 from each side

x+6-6=21-6

x = 15

4 x -3 x + 6 = 21
x + 6 = 21
x = 21 - 6
x = 15

For safety reasons, four different alarm systems were installed in the vault containing the safety deposit boxes at a beverly hi
AleksAgata [21]
The probability any one system works is 0.99
So the probability of any one system failing is 1-0.99 = 0.01, so basically a 1% chance of failure for any one system

Multiply out the value 0.01 with itself four times
0.01*0.01*0.01*0.01 = 0.000 000 01
I'm using spaces to make the number more readable
So the probability of all four systems failing is 0.00000001
Subtract this value from 1 to get
1 - 0.00000001 = 0.99999999

The answer is 0.99999999 which is what we'd expect. The probability of at least one of the systems working is very very close to 1 (aka 100%)

twice the sum of a number and 6 is equal to 3 times the difference of the number and 8. Find the number
Serhud [2]

In order to solve this problem, we must solve an equation.

First, we need to define our unknown.

Let's call our number "n".


So, the sum of the number and 6 is the same as saying n+6

Then we need to multiply it by 2 (since it's twice the sum)

2(n+6)

This whole thing is equal to three times of the difference of the number and 8

n-8 is equal to the difference between the number and 8, then we need to multiply it by three.

3(n-8)

now, we set both sides equal and solve

2(n+6)=3(n-8)\\2n+12=3(n-8)\\2n+12=3n-24\\12=n-24\\36=n

The number is 36
