Answer:
5(x+4)=6
5 times a number and (+) 4 is equal to 6.
Answer:
x = 162 cards need to be dealt with
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Estimation of likelyhood of next card to be queen, a king, or an ace:
( 64 - 0.2*x ) / ( 208 - x )
Find:
For what values of x is this likelihood greater than 70%?
Solution:
- Use the likely-hood estimation relation and set up the inequality as follows:
( 64 - 0.2*x ) / ( 208 - x ) > 0.7
( 64 - 0.2*x ) > 0.7*( 208 - x )
64 - 0.2*x > 145.6 - 0.7*x
0.5*x > 81.6
x > 163.2
- It would require 162 cards to be dealt with for the probability of next card being queen, a king, or an ace is greater than 70%

Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect square trinomial is always in the form
(a+b)(a+b)= 
ie. (x+4)(x+4)= 
Answer:
A salad costs $2.50
A sandwich costs $4.50
A drink costs $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the salad, y represent the sandwich, and z represent the drink.
Since three salads, two sandwiches, and one drink cost $17.75:
3x + 2y + z = 17.75 (1)
Since one salad, one sandwich, and three drinks cost $10.75:
x + y + 3z = 10.75 (2)
Since a salad costs twice as much as a drink:
x = 2z (3)
Multiply the equation 2 by -2 then, sum the equation 1 and equation 2:
-2x - 2y - 6z = -21.50
3x + 2y + z = 17.75
→ x - 5z = -3.75
Replace the x with 2z using equation 3:
2z - 5z = -3.75
-3z = -3.75
z = 1.25
x = 2z → x = 2.50
x + y + 3z = 10.75 → 2.50 + y + 3.75 = 10.75 → y + 6.25 = 10.75 → y = 4.50
