7x-4x=27
Combine like terms 7x-4x (7-4) = 3
3x= 27
Divide by 3 on both sides to get x by itself

3x/3=27/3
Now what’s 3 divided by 3? 1 so x
And 27 divided by 3? 9

X=9

Answer:

A) $\dfrac{11}{23}$

B) $\dfrac{88}{345}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A survey of 46 college athletes found that

24 played volleyball,
22 played basketball.

A) If we pick one athlete survey participant at random, the probability they play basketball is

$P_1=\dfrac{22}{46}=\dfrac{11}{23}$

B) If we pick 2 athletes at random (without replacement),

the probability we get one volleyball player is $\dfrac{24}{46}=\dfrac{12}{23};$
the probability we get another basketball player is $\dfrac{22}{45}$ (only 45 athletes left).
