1. you could distribute the 2 which would give you 2m - 16 + 3 = 17
2. You could add the 2 and 3 together and the problem would be 5(m - 8) = 17

What is the value of x in the equation 7x + 2y = 48 , when y = 3?<br><br> x =
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Plug in 3 for "y":

7x + 2y = 48

7x + 2(3) = 48

2*3 = 6

7x + 6 = 48 
Then, you have to subtract 6 to both sides..

7x = 42

Divide 7 to both sides and the your answer would be 6

You randomly draw twice from this deck of cards
Serggg [28]

The probability of not drawing C in neither draw is P = 0.5

<h3>How to get the probability?</h3>

All the cards have the same probability of being drawn, in this case, our set of cards is {F, D, C, G}

The probability of not drawing C is equal to the probability of drawing F, D or G. So we have 3 options out of 4, then the probability is:

p = 3/4.

Now we draw another, this time there are 3 cards, one of these is C, and the other two cards are not C. Then the probability of not drawing C again is equal to 2 over 3.

q = 2/3.

The joint probability (for both of these events to happen) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities:

P = p*q = (3/4)*(2/3) = 0.5

borishaifa [10]

Answer: 1102 minutes

Explanation: Let x be the number of minutes Jim used 105.60 = 75 + 0.30 ( x − 1000 ) ⇒ 105.60 = 75 + 0.30 x − 300 ⇒ 105.60 = 0.30 x − 225

Aidan drives to school and back each day. The school is 16 miles from his home. He averages 40 miles per hour on his way to scho
Fed [463]
First we have to answers stand that speed is equivalent to the distance traveled in a certain time span. That is speed = distance/time. Conversely, time = distance/speed. We are asked to find the speed going home given, distance, total time and speed going to school. We can answer this equation by adding the time Aidan is spending going and coming back from school 

t = (distance to school)/(speed to school) + (distance to home)/(speed to home)

1hour = (16)/(40) + (16)/(speed to home) 

Speed to home = 26.67miles/hour
