Answer:
3/12 = 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 12 marbles in the bag. If the marble drawn at random is red, it is one of the 3 red marbles.
The probability is "3 out of 12" = 3/12 which simplifies to 1/4.
Answer:
x = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's turn this into an equation:
twenty more ( +20 ) than four times a number ( 4x ) is equal ( = ) to the difference ( - ) between 139 and 3 times the number ( 3x ).
4x + 20 = 139 - 3x
Now let's solve:
Subtract 20 from each side:
4x = 119 - 3x
Add 3x to each side:
7x = 119
Divide each side by 7:
x = 17
Answer: I think the two trains meet at 9pm
Explanation: A=train a B=train b
If A is traveling for 6 hours and B is traveling for 3 hours, then you minus 3 hours from A, so you are left with 3 hours. Convert that into time, and you are left with 9pm!
Hope this helps! :)
I got (-6.28, -0.76).
Step 1.) Write out the problems
-2x=8-6y
-15x=21-6y
Step 2.) Pick a problem and solve for X
-2x=8-6y = x=-4-3y
Step 3.) Plug in the x
(-15)(-4-3y)= 21-6y
60 + 45y= 21-6y
Step 4.) Solve for y
y=-0.76
Step 5.) Plug in the y value into one of the equations
-2x= 8- 6(-0.76)
-2x= 8 + 4.56
x= -6.28
Step 6.) Check your answers
-2(-6.28)=8-6(-0.76)
12.56=12.56
Step 7.) Write it out
(-6.28,-0.76)
