<u>Answer:</u> The value of x will be 2.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
To calculate the value of 'x' or solve for x, we need to isolate x from 8.
In the equation, 8 is in addition with 'x' so for isolating it, we need to apply the reverse operation of addition.
Reverse operation of addition is subtraction.
We need to subtract 8 from both sides of the equation, we get:

By doing this, we get the value of 'x' as 2.
Error done by Alice was that she added 8 and it did not led to the isolation of 'x'.
Henry would be able to write 14 pages of a novel in 8 hours.
5 1/4(or 5.25)/3=1 3/4 (or 1.75)
1 3/4 x 8 =14

Answer:
(b) 1/792
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is;
<em>Counting: Grading One professor grades homework by randomly choosing 5 out of 12 homework problems to grade.</em>
<em>(a) How many different groups of 5 problems can be chosen from the 12</em>
<em>problems?</em>
<em>(b)Probability extension: Jerry did only 5 problems of one assignment. What is the probability that the problems he did comprised the group that was selected to be graded?</em>
<u>In (a)</u>
<u></u>
Apply the formula

where n=12 and r=5
substitute values

In (b)
If Jerry did only 5 problems of one assignment then the probability will be
