A spinner has three unequal sections.
Red = 10
Yellow = 14
Blue = 6
We are asked to find the experimental probability of landing on yellow.
Recall that the experimental probability is given by
In this case, the number of desired outcomes are
Yellow = 14
The total number of possible outcomes is
Total sections = 30
Therefore, the experimental probability of landing on yellow is 7/15
Simplifying
4x + 16 + -1x = 22 + 6
Reorder the terms:
16 + 4x + -1x = 22 + 6
Combine like terms: 4x + -1x = 3x
16 + 3x = 22 + 6
Combine like terms: 22 + 6 = 28
16 + 3x = 28
Solving
16 + 3x = 28
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-16' to each side of the equation.
16 + -16 + 3x = 28 + -16
Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0
0 + 3x = 28 + -16
3x = 28 + -16
Combine like terms: 28 + -16 = 12
3x = 12
Divide each side by '3'.
x = 4
Simplifying
x = 4
.Kim is x years old. Jordan is 7 years older than Kim. Four times Jordan’s age is equal to 200. (a)Write an equation that could be used to solve for Kim’s age, x. (b)How old is Kim? (c)How old is Jordan? Answer:
Kim = x
Jordan = x + 7
4(x+7) = 200
4x + 28 = 200
4x = 200 - 28
4x = 172
x = 172/4
x = 43. Kim's age
Jordan: x + 7 → 43+7 = 50
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
12-4x=12-4x
-12
-4x=-4x/-4
x=1
