Answer:
4 - ( 3x - 8 ) = 21
break the bracket first ,it gives : 4 - 3x + 8 = 21
12 - 3x = 21
- 3x = 21 - 12
- 3x = 9
-x = 9/3
-x = 3
X = - 3
[ check if the answer is correct, put -3 instead of X in the above equation ! we get 4 - { 3(-3) - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 9 - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 17 } = 21
break the bracket, minus and minus will multiply and will become plus , so we have 4 + 17 = 21 , hence 21 = 21 ! therefore X = -3
Answer:
a. 1/10 or 10%
b. 1/2 or 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the combination of machines 1, 2 and 3 produce 100% of the total output when added together, then the probability of choosing a bolt at random that is defective is: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10% out of 100% or 10/100, which is 1/10 or 10%.
If the bolt that is choosen at random is defective, than the probability that it came from machine 1 is 5/10 or 1/2 which is also 50%.
They are intersecting lines if they are not parallel so the other option is that they are intersecting.<span />
The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx+b. m being the slope (part one of name) and b being the y-intercept (part 2 of name).
Answer: 350 adult tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
(omg I remember this question!)
- a stands for the number of adult tickets sold
student tickets : a + 65
<em>the equation for the prob: </em>
765 = a + (a + 65)
<em>solve:</em>
combine 'like terms'
1.) 765 = a + a + 65
2.) 765 = 2a + 65
<u>- 65 - 65 </u>
700= 2a
divide by 2
700/2 = 2a/2
<em>(700/2 = 350) </em>
<em>(the "2" in 2a is cancelled out by the other 2)</em>
<u>350 = a </u>
