2/3x = 3.5 + 3/8x
8 • (2/3x) = 3.5 + 3 • (3/8)

16/24 X = 3.5 + 9/24 X
16/24x - 9/24x = 3.5
7/24 X = 3.5
7x/24 = 3.5
24 • (7x/24) = 3.5 • 24
7x = 84
7x/7 = 84/7
X = 12.

The number is 12.

22. Solve 7x - 9 = 28+ 4(x - 1).<br> X=-3<br> X=3<br> x = 11<br> X=-11​
aleksley [76]

Answer:

c) x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: 7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x - 1)

<u><em>Steps:</em></u>

1. Distribute 4 through the parentheses:

7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x) + 4(-1)

7x - 9 = 28 + 4x - 4 [simplify]

7x - 9 = 24 + 4x

2. Subtract 4x from both sides:

7x - 4x - 9 = 24 + 4x - 4x

3x - 9 = 24

3. Add 9 to both sides:

3x - 9 + 9 = 24 + 9

3x = 33

4. Divide both sides by 3:

3x ÷ 3 = 33 ÷ 3

x = 11

5. Check your work:

7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x - 1) [substitute 11 for x]

7(11) - 9 = 28 + 4(11 - 1) [simplify]

77 - 9 = 28 + 4(10) [simplify]

68 = 28 + 40 [add]

68 = 68 ✔

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each trial is independent of the other

no of mistakes he does is binomial with p = 1/3

a) the probability that he makes no mistakes on his first 10 orders but the 11th order is a mistake

= (\frac{2}{3}) ^{10} *\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{2^{10} }{3^{11} }

b) Prob that shanker quits = P(Shankar does I one mistake and Fran does not do the first one)+Prob (Shanker does mistake in the II one while Fran does both right)

= \frac{1*5}{3*6} +\frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3}(\frac{5}{6})^2  =\frac{5}{18} +\frac{50}{216} \\=\frac{55}{108}
