x + (x+1) >=46

2x+1 >=46

subtract 1 from each side

2x >= 45

divide by 2

x>= 22.5

x =23

x+1 =24

The two integers are 23 and 24

How to solve for 6x-12+2x=3+8x-15

Alecsey [184]

6x−12+2x=3+8x−15

Simplify:

6x+−12+2x=3+8x+−15

(6x+2x)+(−12)=(8x)+(3+−15)(Combine Like Terms)

8x+−12=8x+−12

8x−12=8x−12

Subtract 8x from both sides.

8x−12−8x=8x−12−8x

−12=−12

Add 12 to both sides.

−12+12=−12+12

0=0

The real numbers are the only solution we can have.

Which simplified fraction is equal to 0.53 with bar?

Oxana [17]

I assume that 0.53 with a bar means the decimal fraction in which 3 is repeating.

24/45, 8/15, and 48/90 all result in the same decimal value. Thus, we are simply looking for the one that is fully simplified.

The correct answer is 8/15.

Hope this helps!

Assume that the probability that a baseball player will get a hit in any one at bat is 0.250. What is the probability that he wi

Yanka [14]

Answer: 0.0791

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability that a baseball player will get a hit in any one at bat is 0.250.

Let x be the first hit.

According to the geometric probability , the probability that x (th) trial is the first success = $P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x-1}p$ , where p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

As per given p= 0.250

Then, the probability that he will get his first hit on his 5th at bat will be :

$P(X=x)=(1-0.25)^{5-1}(0.25)\\\\=(0.75)^4(0.25)\\\\=0.0791015625\approx0.0791$

Hence, the probability that he will get his first hit on his 5th at bat is 0.0791 .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the results of a random survey of children between the ages of 13 and 18 about their favorite activity.

Based on these results, we are to find the number of children who will prefer organized sports if 250 children were asked about their favorite activity.

Children who will prefer organized sports = $\frac{37}{155} \times 250$ = 60
