Answer:

−38

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−(6x+8)=4(17−x)

−6x+−8=(4)(17)+(4)(−x)(Distribute)

−6x+−8=68+−4x

−6x−8=−4x+68

Step 2: Add 4x to both sides.

−6x−8+4x=−4x+68+4x

−2x−8=68

Step 3: Add 8 to both sides.

−2x−8+8=68+8

−2x=76

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x−2=76−2

x=−38

You spin each spinner once. On the spinners, R represents red, B represents blue, G represents green, Y represents yellow, and P
NeTakaya

Answer:

1/6

1/12

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three possible outcomes in the left spinner, and four possible outcomes in the right spinner.  So there are a total of 3×4=12 possible combinations.  We can show that by making a grid:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&R&B&G\\R&RR&BR&GR\\B&BR&BB&BG\\P&PR&BP&GP\\Y&RY&BY&GY\end{array}\right]

Of these 12 combinations, 2 show both spinners landing on the same color (RR and BB).  So the probability is 2/12 = 1/6.

There is only 1 outcome in which the first spinner lands on R <em>and</em> the second spinner lands on P (PR), so the probability is 1/12.

There are 6 outcomes in which the first spinner lands on R <em>or</em> the second spinner lands on P (RR, BR, PR, RY, BP, GP).  So the probability is 6/12 = 1/2.

If (ax + 2)(bx + 7) = 15(x*2) + cx + 14 for all values of
Juli2301 [7.4K]

If (ax + 2)(bx + 7) = 15(x * 2) + cx + 14 for all values of x, and a + b = 8 then the two possible values for c is 31 and 41.

<h3>What is meant by linear equation?</h3>

A linear equation is an algebraic equation with only a constant and a first-order (linear) term of the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The above is sometimes referred to as a "linear equation of two variables," where y and x are the variables.

Let the equation be

(ax + 2)(bx + 7) = 15$$x^2 + cx + 14

(ax + 2)(bx + 7) = ab$$x^2 + 7ax + 2bx + 14 = ab$$x^2 + (7a + 2b) + 14

On comparing both equations

ab = 15     ------ (1)

7a + 2b = c   -------(2)

Also, it is given that a + b = 8  --------(3)

From equations (1) and (3) it can be observe that either a or b equal to 3 or 5

From equation (2),

When a = 3 and b = 5, then c = 7(3) + 2(5) = 21 + 10 = 31

When a = 5 and b = 3, then c = 7(5) + 2(3) = 35 + 6 = 41

Therefore, the correct answer is option D) 31 and 41
