Let "x" be the "unknown number" for which we are to solve.
8x − (-54/9) = -18 ; Solve for "x" ;
→ 8x − (-6) = - 18 ;
→ 8x + 6 = - 18 ;
Subtract "6" from each side of the equation:
→ 8x + 6 − 6 = - 18 <span>− 6 ;
to get: 8x = -24 ;
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "8" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; & to solve for "x" ;
8x / 8 = -24 / 8 ;
to get: x = -3 .

Answer: P(x > - 0.23) = 0.41
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are assuming that the readings at freezing on a batch of thermometers are normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = the readings at freezing on a batch of thermometers.
µ = mean temperature reading
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 0°C
σ = 1.00°C
the probability of obtaining a reading less than -0.23°C is expressed as
P(x > - 0.23)
For x = - 0.23
z = (- 0.23 - 0)/1 = - 0.23
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.41
Set y equal to 25 because this is the amount of money Aisha wants to save. This gives you 25 = 50-1.99x. Now we can solve for x, which is the variable. First, subtract 50 from both sides so that you can get the variable, x, by itself. After subtracting 50 from both sides, you are left with -25 = -1.99x . If it is easier for you, you can put the numbers on opposite sides so it reads -1.99x = -25 . Now divide both sides by -1.99 so that x is by itself. So -1.99x ÷-1.99 = 1x which is equal to just x and -25÷-1.99 = about 12.56, which is a decimal. (Remember that when you divide a negative number by a negative number, it becomes a positive number) Finally we have x = 12.56 (or 1x = 12.56) with 12.56 being equal to the number of songs Aisha can buy if she also wants to save money in her bank account. However, nobody can buy only .56 or part of a song. Round down to the nearest whole number, which is 12. This is how many songs she can buy and it makes sense because it is 12 entire songs, not 12 and just the chorus of a song. If you want to check, you can plug in 12 for x and she shouod have a little more than $25 in her bank account. So Aisha can buy 12 songs is she wants to save $25. I hope this helped :)
I could be wrong but I think you solve for y then graph it then find where the lines intersect. You’re using ed puzzle though so just rewatch the part of the video and you’ll get the answer.
