Answer: Yes you will still get a true statement because 3 is the solution to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well substitute 3 for x into the equation and solve for to see if they equal each other.

12 = 5(3) - 3    

12 = 15 - 3

12 = 12  

So if you substitute 3 you get the solution .

Now solve for x in the real equation to see if you get 3.

4x + 12 = 9x -3  

-4x           -4x

 12 = 5x -3  

+3           +3

15 = 5x  

x = 3

Two thirds a number plus 4 is 7
Sergio039 [100]
(2/3)x+4= 7

Subtract 4 from both sides
(2/3)x= 3

Divide both sides by 2/3. To divide by a fraction, multiply the first number by the reciprocal of the second.
3*3/2= 9/2

Final answer: 9/2 or 4.5

Sav [38]

Answer:

0.0006087 (4 sf)

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial distribution:  X ~ B(n, p)

where n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success

Let the random variable X be the number of people with brown eyes

n = 14

p = 40% = 0.4

Therefore,  X ~ B(14, 0.4)

P(X ≥ 12) = 1 - P(X ≤ 11)

              = 1 - 0.9993913226...

              = 0.000608677...
