$2x - 8 = x + 4$

Collecting like terms,

$2x - x = 4 + 8$

Since the signs change when its position changes.

$x = 8 + 4 \\ x = 12$

What does 6x mean?

Answer:

6 times x

Step-by-step explanation:

6x can be written as (6)(x) which can be written as 6 *x, or 6 times x.

[] When you have two numbers next to each other like this, and one of them is a variable, you multiply them together.

[] While 6x can be written as 6 x x you can see it gets confusing as the multiplication sign looks a lot like the variable, so 6 x x can be written as 6x for this reason as well

Answer:

P=0.17

Step-by-step explanation:

If A and B are dependent events, then we have a Rule of Addition:

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)$

Let A represent event that customer at Mega Hit is subscribed to premium movie channels while B represent event that customer at Mega Hit owns a DVD, so, we get the following:

$P(A)=0.42\\P(B)=0.31\\P(A \cup B)=0.56\\\\$
