Answer: The number is 0.75 or 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = the number.
Now set up an equation: The product of a number (x) and -4 = -4x. So -4x is subtracted from the number - x. x-(-4x)
Then, that equals 3 more than the number (x) = x+3
So the equation is x-(-4x)=x+3.
Then, solve the equation!
x-(-4x)=x+3
x+4x=x+3 (Distribute the negative to the parentheses)
5x=x+3 (Combine like terms)
4x=3 (Get the Xs on one side by subtracting x from both sides)
x=0.75 or 3/4 (divide by the coefficiant, 4, on both sides)
Answer:
46,303
Step-by-step explanation:
12789+9324+9324+1078+12789+999= 46,303
He had saved 320 initially
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount he saved be 'a'
Amount spent = 20 + 40 + 30
= 90
His grand father gave 50
At the end he has 280
280 = a - 90 +50
a = 280 -50 +90
= 320
He had saved 320 initially
<h3>
Answer: 9/100</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
There are 3 pink marbles out of 10 total (we can see that 2 yellow + 3 pink + 5 blue = 10 total)
The fraction 3/10 represents the probability of pulling out a pink marble at random. Since the first one is put back, this means the fraction 3/10 stays the same on the second draw as well.
We use the idea mentioned in the hint to multiply the fractions:
(3/10)*(3/10) = (3*3)/(10*10) = 9/100
The probability of pulling two pink marbles in a row is 9/100, where the first marble is put back.
Effectively, if you were given 100 tries at doing this, you should expect about 9 of those times you get 2 pink marbles in a row.
