Answer:

Infinite solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 5 to the numbers inside the parenthesis.

5 × 4=20

5 × -x=-5x

-5x+20.

They are the same.

-5x+20=-5x+20

Add 5x on both sides:

-5x+5x+20=-5x+5x+20

20=20

So there are infinite solutions.

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(4-x)=-5x+20

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand

-5(4-x)=-5x+20

Reorder the terms in parentheses

+(-20+5x)=-5x+20

Remove unnecessary parentheses

-20+5x=-5x+20

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.

+5x+5x=+20+20

We simplify left and right side of the equation.

+10x=+40

We divide both sides of the equation by 10 to get x.

x=4

A ________ is a whole number that divides another whole number with a remainder of 0
Brut [27]

It's a factor. This concept is widely used throughout algebra, and you'll probably bump into it through the end of high school and beyond.

A common use is expressing a term in <em>prime factorization</em>, or reducing a number to its most base parts- primes. For example:

20 = 4 * 5 = 2 * 2 * 5

Of course, a number like 13 which is already prime is made up of itself and 1. <em>Factors do not have to be primes.</em> 20 is also reducible through combinations of 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20. Prime factorization is just a handy example.

Basically, factors multiply with each other to create other numbers, and numbers can be reduced down to their factors.

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

10.55% probability

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the CDs are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

1 Bach CD, from a set of 4.

1 Beethoven CD, from a set of 6.

1 Brahms CD, from a set of 3.

1 Handel CD, from a set of 2.

So, D=144

4 CDs from a set of 4+6+3+2 = 15.

So, T= 1365

p= D/T= 144/1365 = 0.1055

10.55% probability that she will choose one by each composer
