Answer:
Part A: x = 4.
Part B: The answer normally would be x = 12, but since your question asked why it has no real solution, it is because the solution (x=12) does not make the equaion true. Why? Because the value given from the equation that should make the equation true does not relate the equation in itself; hence making it have no solution.
X = 9
you multiply both sides by 3 because you have to get rid of it and what you do to one side you do to the other then you divide both sides by 2 to isolate the variable. i hope that makes sense.
<u>The probability is </u><u>1/12</u>
The probability of choosing a nickel is 9/18 = 1/2. The probability of choosing a dime is 3/18 (because there are 3 dimes and since there is replacement, we still have 18 total coins to choose). With these, we get: (1/2) * (3/18) = 3/36 = 1/12
Two negatives added or multiplied make a positive.
Start by writing your own expression.
x is the smaller number and x + 1 is the next number
x(x + 1) = 420
x^2 + x - 420 =0 ⇒ constant = -420
