How many solutions does the equation have?

1 answer:

8 0

-6 + 6 = 0 0 + -2x = 12 + 6 -2x = 12 + 64x+2(x-3)=8x+12 is our main problem right? so...
4x + (-3 * 2 + x * 2) = 8x + 12
4x + (-6 + 2x) = 8x + 12
So next we do:
-6 + 4x + 2x = 8x + 12
Reorder the terms :) -6 + 6x = 12 + 8x
Now were going to solve for x
-6 + -2x = 12 + 8x + -8x
8x + -8x = 0
-6 + -2x = 12 + 0
-6 + -2x = 12
-6 + 6 = 0
0 + -2x = 12 + 6
-2x = 12 + 6=
-2x = 18
so now were just going to divide each side by -2
and so thats going to be like this
-2x = 18
/ -2 /-2
0 -9
so whats left over is x = -9
So your answer is A.

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

the train travels faster than the car

Step-by-step explanation:

first solve for the train multiply 130 by 2 to have it for 4 hours and that would be the car travels 260 miles in 4 hours then divide 130 by 2 to get to five hours which will be the car travels 325 miles in 5 hours so therefore the answer would be the trains travels faster hope this helped :-)

Answer:

0.14% probability of a person guessing the right combination

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the numbers are selected is important. For example, 1,3,2 is a different combination than 3,1,2. So we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

$P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}$
