Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equation our aim is to find the value of what we are looking for as well as keeping the equation balanced. For example if we took away 4 only from one side then the equation would change so it's an important rule to keep in mind when solving equations, that you need to keep both sides of the equation the same.

4 ( 2x - 1 ) = 3x - 19

→ Expand the brackets

8x - 4 = 3x - 19

→ Minus 3x from both sides to isolate -19 and bring all the x coefficients to one side

5x - 4 = -19

→ Add -4 to both sides to isolate 5x

5x = -15

→ Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x and therefore find the value of x

x = -3

→ We can substitute x = -3 back into 4 ( 2x - 1 ) = 3x - 19 to see if we have the correct solution, if we end with the same number on both sides then  x = -3 is correct.

4 ( 2x - 1 ) = 3x - 19

8x - 4 = 3x - 19

( 8 × -3 ) - 4 = ( 3 × -3 ) - 19

-24 - 4 = - 9 - 19

-28 = -28

So x = -3 is correct

-3 +3(n+8)= 2(1 + 6n) - 8
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

3 =n

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 +3(n+8)= 2(1 + 6n) - 8

Distribute

-3 +3n +24 = 2 +12n -8

Combine like terms

21+3n = 12n -6

Subtract 3n from each side

21+3n-3n = 12n-3n -6

21 = 9n -6

Add 6 to each side

21+6 = 9n-6+6

27 = 9n

Divide each side by 9

27/9 = 9n/9

27/9 =n

Divide the top and bottom by 3

3 =n

A^2 = 4 and B^2 = 3. What is C^2 × 15?
adoni [48]

Answer:

105

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming A^2 + B^2 = C^2:

C^2 = 4 + 3 = 7

So,

C^2 * 15 = 49(15) = 105

Note: Since the relationship between A, B, and C isn't known, it cannot be said for certain that 105 is the answer.

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 10 men and 5 women in a conference room

total People=15

(a)Probability that the committee consists of 2 men and 2 women

we have to select from 10 men and 5 women

P=\frac{^5C_2\times ^{10}C_2}{^{15}C_4}

(b)Bob and Jane end up on the same committee

as bob and Jane are necessary to include so there are 4 women and 9 men left to select remaining 2 person

P=\frac{^{13}C_2}{^{15}C_4}

(c)Bob is in the committee but Jane is not

9 men and 4 women left to choose other 3 person

P=\frac{^{13}C_3}{^{15C_4}}
