Answer:

x=21

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x-2/5*5=8*5 Multiply the 5 on both sides to cancel out the denominator.

2. 2x-2+2=40+2 Add 2 on both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

3. 2x/2=42/2 Divide both sides by 2 in order to isolate the variable itself. Yay, you got the answer, 21!

Heyy I hope you have a great day, this took forever to type so it would be very appreciated if you marked this answer as brainliest... UwU

Total no. of buttons = 300 + 700 + 1000

+ 500 = 2500

Possibility for a person to pick a pink button = 300/2500 = (3/25)%

Amount of pink buttons she can expect her friends to pick = 50(3/25) = 6

She can expect to make 6 pink barrettes.

A certain organization recommends the use of passwords with the following format: vowel commavowel, consonant comma consonant c

zimovet [89]

The password format is = inpray93

vowel , consonant, consonant, consonant, vowel, consonant, number, number.

There are 21 consonants, 5 vowels and 10 number choices (0-9)

Since, there are 21 consonants and repetition is allowed so for 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th positions 21 choices are available. For 1st and 5th positions, 5 choices are available and for 7th and 8th position there are 10 choices (0 to 9).

Passwords are not case sensitive which means upper case and lower case letters are same.

So, the number of passwords can be =

$5\times21\times21\times21\times5\times21\times10\times10$

= 486202500

Part (b) question is not given. But it can be opposite to the first part i.e when the password letters are case sensitive.

This means all the letters are different.

So, number of passwords will be =

$10\times42\times42\times42\times10\times42\times10\times10$

= 31116960000

What is the focus of the parabola?<br><br> y=−14x2−2x−2

nataly862011 [7]

First, we need to transform the equation into its standard form (x - h)²=4p(y - k).
Using completing the square method:

y = -14x² - 2x - 2
y = -14(x² + 2x/14) - 2
y = -14(x² + 2x/14 + (2/28)²) -2 + (2/28)²
y = -14(x + 1/14)² - 391/196
-1/14(y + 391/196) = (x + 1/14)²

This is a vertical parabola and its focus <span>(h, k + p) is (-1/14, -391/196 + 1/56) = (-1/14, -775/392).

Or (-0.071,-1.977).</span>
