Mathematics

kiruha [24]3 years ago

1) both 8x and -6x are the same form - they’re just a coefficient with a variable, while 9 and -7 are just plain numbers. move the expression around as shown in the picture: 8x - 6x + 9 - 7. now coefficients with variables are next to each other, while plain numbers are next to each other, making it easier to solve.
2) now solve: 8x - 6x is 2x, and 9 - 7 is 2. now you have 2x + 2, which is the final answer.

i don’t know if i explained it very well, but if you look at the picture you should be fine.

In a New York Times/CBS News Poll, respondents were asked if it should be legal or illegal to send a text message while driving.
AnnZ [28]

Answer: \dfrac2{201}

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of persons said it is legal to text while driving = 8

Number of persons said it is illegal to text while driving = 804

Total persons sampled = 804+8 = 812

Since probability =\dfrac{\text{favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

The probability of randomly selecting someone who believes it should be legal to text while driving = \dfrac{8}{804}=\dfrac2{201}

Required probability = \dfrac2{201}

What number could be added to 0.40 mL for the level pf precision to be 0.01mL?
Mila [183]

Answer:

-0.39mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

The expression would be: 0.40 + x = 0.01

Apply algebra to the equation to solve for x. You can subtract 0.40 from each side to simplify the expression. Here's what it should look like after applying algebra: x = -0.39

Therefore the answer is -0.39mL
