The solution for t
4 = 2t + 8
4 + (-8) = 2t + 8 + (-8)
-4 = 2t
-4 / 2 = 2t / 2
-2 = t
t = -2
Answer:
-2x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write expression
(5x + 2) - (7x - 8)
Step 2: Distribute negative
5x + 2 - 7x + 8
Step 3: Combine like terms
-2x + 10
Answer:
85, 68, 51
Step-by-step explanation:
Average: The sum of all the numbers divided by the number of numbers
If the ratio of the scores is 5 : 4 : 3, let's just set it as 5x : 4x : 3x
Then using the definition of an average, we can write this equation.
(5x + 4x + 3x) / 3 = 68
Multiply both sides by 3.
5x + 4x + 3x = 68 * 3
Simplify.
12x = 204
x = 17
Now, substitute x = 17 into the original scores (5x, 4x, and 3x)
5x = 5 * 17 = 85
4x = 4 * 17 = 68
3x = 3 * 17 = 51
Just in case, let's check this answer. Find the average of the 3 test scores.
(85 + 68 + 51) / 3 =
204 / 3 = 68
Thus, the answers are correct
Between 75 and 98.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first have a look at the previous data available:
Friday, 27 dunk teachers out of 215 participants (12.5%)
Saturday: 54 dunk teachers out of 417 participants (12.9%)
Sunday: 39 dunk teachers out of 368 participants (10.6%)
So, based on the previous 3 days, she can expect between 10% and 13% will dunk a teacher.
If she has 750 contestants on Monday, the number of winners should then be in the range of 75 (10% of 750) and 98 (13% of 750).
Hi,
She lacks 240-42 = 198
She earns 12 usd per hours so : 198 /12 = 16.5
