Answer:

n=3 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n+7) Multiply each term in the parenthesis by 8

8n + 8 x 7

8n + 56

4 - 6n = 8n + 56

move variable to the left by adding its opposite to both sides

-6n - 8n + 4 = 8n - 8n +56

eliminate the opposites

-6n - 8n + 4 = 56

collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients

-6n - 8n

(-6 - 8)n

calculate the difference

-14n

divide both sides of the equation by -14

-14n / (-14) = 52 / (-14)

n = 52 / (-14)

n = -52/14

n= -26/7

alternative form of writing the answer is

n= -3 5/7 or n= 3.71429

If a person flips a coin and then rolls a six dash sided die, describe the sample space of possible outcomes using Upper H comm

xenn [34]

Answer:

Sample Space (S) = { (1,H), (1,T), (2,H), (2,T), (3,H), (3,T), (4,H), (4,T), (5,H), (5,T), (6,H), (6,T) }

Step-by-step explanation:

If a person flips a coin; the possible outcomes of flipping a coin are { Head (H), Tail (T) }

If a person rolls a six dash side die, the possible outcomes of rolling a dice are { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 }

Now, If a person flips a coin and then rolls a six dash side die;

The Sample Space (S) which is the set of all the possible outcomes of the activities carried out can be described as follows:

DIE COIN →

↓

H T

1 (1,H) (1,T)

2 (2,H) (2,T)

3 (3,H) (3,T)

4 (4,H) (4,T)

5 (5,H) (5,T)

6 (6,H) (6,T)

Sample Space (S) = { (1,H), (1,T), (2,H), (2,T), (3,H), (3,T), (4,H), (4,T), (5,H), (5,T), (6,H), (6,T) }

Micheal solved this inequality as shown: step 1: -6(x + 3) + 10 < -2 step 2: -6x - 18 + 10 < -2 step 3: -6x - 8 < -2 st

<h3>Answer: addition property of inequality</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

These are the steps to focus on

step 3: -6x - 8 < -2

step 4: -6x < 6

The move from the third step to the fourth step has us adding 8 to both sides. Therefore, we use the addition property of inequality.

That property has four forms

If $a > b$ then $a + c > b+c$
If $a < b$ then $a+c < b+c$
If $a \ge b$ then $a + c \ge b+c$
If $a \le b$ then $a+c \le b+c$

It's similar to the idea of starting with a = b, then adding c to both sides to get a+c = b+c

We add the same thing to both sides to keep things balanced.
