Answer:

1=x or x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+2)-10=4x-6+x

distribute

3x+6-10=4x-6+x

combine like terms

3x-4=5x-6

subtract 3x from each side

-4=2x-6

add 6 to both sides

2=2x

divide by 2

1=x or x=1

Answer:

If you wanted to simplify the equation.

3x - 4 = 5x - 6

If you wanted to solve for x.

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+2)-10=4x-6+x

3x + 6 - 10 = 4x-6+x

3x - 4 = 4x - 6 + x

3x - 4 = 5x - 6

If you wanted to simplify the equation this is it. If you wanted to solve for x, continue reading.

Add 4 to both sides of the equation.

3x - 4 + 4 = 5x - 6 + 4

Simplify.

3x = 5x - 6 + 4

3x = 5x - 2

Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation.

3x - 5x = 5x - 5x - 2

Simplify.

-2x = 5x - 5x - 2

-2x = -2

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term.

(-2x/2) = (-2/2)

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator.

x = (-2/-2)

Divide the numbers.

x = 1

Given

Train travels 10.1 miles in half an hour i.e.

Distance $d=10.1\ \text{miles}$

time $t=0.5\ hr$

we know, $\text{distance=speed}\times\text{time}$

Insert the values

$\Rightarrow 10.1=v\times 0.5\\\Rightarrow v=20.2\ mph$

If two cards are drawn without replacement from a 52 card deck, find the probability that the second card drawn is red, given th

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The probability that the second card drawn is red, given that the first card was a heart is 0.1225

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cards in a deck = 52

Total red cards = 26

Heart cards = 13

Probability of getting red card = $\frac{13}{52}$

Total remaining card = 51

Remaining red cards = 25

Probability of getting red card in second draw without replacement = $\frac{25}{51}$

So, the probability that the second card drawn is red, given that the first card was a heart = $\frac{13}{52} \times \frac{25}{51} =0.1225$

Hence the probability that the second card drawn is red, given that the first card was a heart is 0.1225
