X=-1.8
To solve first use the distributive property to change the equation to -2x+1 1/3+1=5
Then you subtract 1 from 5 so then the equation looks like this: -2x+1 1/3=4
Next subtract 1 1/3 from 4 to get 3.6
then divide it by -2 and you get -1.8
Answer:
-24x + 18y
Step-by-step explanation:
6 x -4x = -24x
6 x 3y = 18y
Answer:
<em>The probability of obtaining the letter p twice is 1/121</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Probability of Recurring Events</u>
There are 11 letters in the word 'independent', one of which is the letter 'p'.
When those letters are written on individual cards and they are put into a box, there are 11 different choices to pick at random.
This means the individual probability of getting a 'p' is:

The card is reinserted into the box, leaving the sample space unaltered, thus the second card has the same probability:

We'll use the multiplication rule. Just multiply the probability of the first event by the second.


The probability of obtaining the letter p twice is 1/121
For this question, we must use BIDMAS
Brackets
Indices
Division
Multiplication
Addition
Subtraction
26.6 x 24.4 / 5.67 x 4.02
First, round all the values to their first significant figure
30 x 20 / 6 x 4
The first occurring operation in BIDMAS is Division
20/6 = 3 1/3
Now do the multiplication
30 x 3 1/3 x 4 = 400
Or you can round to the nearest whole number (although it can be more difficult if doing sums in your head)
27 x 24 / 6 x 4
27 x 4 x 4
27 x 16 = 432
The more accurately you round, the closer the estimation is to the actual answer (≈460)
1 Sig Fig = 400
Whole number = 432
