Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

7 + 5(x - 3) = 22

The first step is to distribute the 5

7+ 5x-5*3 =22

7+ 5x-15 =22

Combine like terms

5x-8 =22

Add 8 to each side

5x-8+8 =22+8

5x = 30

5x/5 = 30/5

x=6

Answer:

The Answer is c) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

5 (x - 3) + 7 = 22

5 (x - 3) = 5 x - 15:

5 x - 15 + 7 = 22

Grouping like terms, 5 x - 15 + 7 = 5 x + (7 - 15):

5 x + (7 - 15) = 22

7 - 15 = -8:

5 x + -8 = 22

Add 8 to both sides:

5 x + (8 - 8) = 8 + 22

8 - 8 = 0:

5 x = 22 + 8

22 + 8 = 30:

5 x = 30

Divide both sides of 5 x = 30 by 5:

(5 x)/5 = 30/5

5/5 = 1:

x = 30/5

The gcd of 30 and 5 is 5, so 30/5 = (5×6)/(5×1) = 5/5×6 = 6:

Answer:  x = 6

There are seven boys and five girls in a class. The teacher randomly selects three different students to answer questions. The f
Aleks [24]

The probability of picking one girl would be \frac{5}{12}. That is because there are 5 girls out of the 12 students, and the probability of an event occuring is: \frac{\text{# of things you want}}{\text{# of things are possible}}.

Using that same logic, the next student should be easier. We reduced the student population by 1, so we have 11 possible ways it can happen now instead of 12, so that gives us:\frac{7}{11}, for the probability of picking a boy as the second pick.

And lastly, using the same logic shown above, the probability of picking a girl on the third pick would be:\frac{4}{10}.

We are not done, though. We have the separate probabilities, but now we have to multiply then together to figure out the probability of this exact event happening:

\frac{5}{12}*\frac{7}{11}*\frac{4}{10}=\frac{140}{1320}

Which when reduced is:

\frac{7}{66}
