Answer:

B. The result is not correct because Step 2 has an error.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+5=3(2x+1)                 Distribute on the right side

6x+5=6x+3

-6x    -6x                        Subtract 6x from both sides

5≠3                                There is no solution because 5 doesn't equal 3

The reason Paloma's result is wrong is because you can't subtract 3 from 5 and set it equal to 0

Ex: 5-3 = 0         2 = 0

A 20% solution of fertilizer is to be mixed with a 50% solution of fertilizer in order to get 180 gallons of a 40% solution. How
anyanavicka [17]

Answer: 60 gallons of the 20% solution and 120 gallons of the 50% solution should be mixed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gallons of 20% solution that should be mixed.

Let y represent the number of gallons of 50% solution that should be mixed.

A 20% solution of fertilizer is to be mixed with a 50% solution of fertilizer in order to get 180 gallons of a 40% solution. This means that

0.2x + 0.5y = 0.4×180

0.2x + 0.5y = 72- - - - - - - - - - - -1

Since the total number of gallons is 180, it means that

x + y = 180

Substituting x = 180 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.2(180 - y) + 0.5y = 72

36 - 0.2y + 0.5y = 72

- 0.2y + 0.5y = 72 - 36

0.3y = 36

y = 36/0.3

y = 120

x = 180 - y = 180 - 120

x = 60

Please help me with this and find x!! Thank you, only if you know!
scoray [572]

Answer:

x = 9.8

Step-by-step explanation:

to find x, use pythagorean theorem

a^{2} = c^{2} - b^{2}

a^{2} = 14^{2}  - 10^{2}

a^{2} = 196 - 100

a^{2} = 96

\sqrt{a^2} = \sqrt{96}

a = 9.7979 ⇒ 9.8

In a statistics class there are 18 juniors and 10 seniors; 6 of the seniors are females and 12 of the juniors are males. If a st
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

P(a junior or a senior)=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the probability is given by:

P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{N}

Where P(A) is the probability of occurring an event A, n(A) is the number of favorable outcomes and N is the total number of outcomes.

In this case, N is the total number of the students of statistics class.

N=18+10=28

The probability of the union of two mutually exclusive events is given by:

P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)

Therefore:

P(a junior or a senior) =P(a junior)+P(a senior)

Because a student is a junior or a senior, not both.

n(a junior)=18

n(a senior)=10

P(a junior)=18/28

P(a senior) = 10/28

P(a junior or a senior) = 18/28 + 10/28

Solving the sum of the fractions:

P(a junior or a senior) = 28/28 = 1
