Algebraic expresion: 56-2x
1) -3x -3 -7x = 17
• start by grouping so add -3x and -7x which gives you -10x
• 10x -3 (+3) = 17 +3 = 20 add 3 on both sides)
• 10x (/10) = 20/ 10 = 2
1) x = 2
2) 10x -6 (+6) = 24 + 6 = 30
• 10x (/10) = 30/ 10 = 3
2) x = 3
3) -4 (+4) -5x = -39 +4 = -35
• -5x (/-5) = -35/ -5 = 7
3) x = 7
4) 3x - 5 > 10
this one i don’t understand, is there a typo maybe ?
5) -5x + x + 16 = -3 you can put a 1 to hold the place of x to make it 1x
• (-5x + 1x) + 16 = -3
• -4x + 16 (-16) = -3 -16 = -19
• -4x (/-4) = -19/ -4 = 4.75 or 4 3/4
5) x = 4.75
Answer:
a. 1/10 or 10%
b. 1/2 or 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the combination of machines 1, 2 and 3 produce 100% of the total output when added together, then the probability of choosing a bolt at random that is defective is: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10% out of 100% or 10/100, which is 1/10 or 10%.
If the bolt that is choosen at random is defective, than the probability that it came from machine 1 is 5/10 or 1/2 which is also 50%.
(1/2)^2 = 1/4
2-2/3 = 6/3 - 2/3 = 4/3
OK so:
(1/2)^2 - 6(2-2/3) = 1/4 - 6(4/3)
= 1/4 - 8
= 1/4 - 32/4
= -31/4
