Aleksandr [31]3 years ago

Answer:

<h3>x = 3/2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

9|4/3x-2| + 7 = 7

First note that the value in parenthesis can both be negative and positive;

For the positive value, we have;

9(4/3x-2) + 7 = 7

9(4/3x-2) + 7 - 7 = 7 - 7

9(4/3x-2) = 0

Open the bracket

9(4/3x) - 9(2) = 0

36/3 x - 18 = 0

12x = 18

x = 18/12

x = 3/2

For the negative value;

9(-(4/3x-2)) + 7 = 7

9(-4/3x+2) + 7 - 7 = 7 - 7

9(-4/3x+2) = 0

Open the bracket

9(-4/3x) + 9(2) = 0

-36/3 x + 18 = 0

-12x = -18

x = 18/12

x = 3/2

Hence the value of x is 3/2

Armando has some coins in his pocket. 3 dimes 2 quarters 2 pennies 5 nickles What is the probability that he will pull out a nic
Licemer1 [7]

The probability that he will pull out a nickel, then a quarter, then a nickel is \frac{1}{33}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Number of dimes = 3

Number of Quarters = 2

Number of pennies = 2

Number of Nickles = 5

Total coins = 3 + 2 + 2 + 5

                 = 12  

Probability that Armando will pull out Nickel first = \frac{5}{12}                                                      

After taking out Nickel, the total number of coins in the pocket will be 11

So,

Probability that he will pull a quarter = \frac{2}{11}

Total coins remaining = 11 - 1 = 10

Total Nickel remaining = 5 - 1 = 4

Probability that he will take our Nickel = \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5}

Total probability = \frac{5}{12} X \frac{2}{11} X\frac{4}{10}

                         = \frac{1}{33}

A. Round to the nearest hundredth
aniked [119]

a. Rounding to the nearest hundredth  means that we only have access to numbers with 2 decimal digits. Our number is enclosed between 45.28 and 45.29. Which one is a better approximation? Well, the one who's closer! To tell how "close" two numbers are, just compute the absolute value of their difference:

|45.28502&#10;-45.28|=0.00502,\quad |45.28502&#10;-45.29|0.00498

So, the distance from 45.29 is less than the distance from 45.28, which makes 45-29 the best approximation.

b. Rounding to the nearest integer  means that we can't use decimal digits at all. By the same logic of case (a), we have to choose between 27 and 28: we have

|27.499-27|=0.499,\quad |&#10;27.499-28|=0.501

Which makes 27 the best approximation

c. Rounding to the nearest tenth  means that we can only use one decimal digit. Again, the logic is always the same: the number lies between 0.2 and 0.3, and we use the same test to check which is a better approximation:

|0.224-0.2|=0.024,\quad |0.224-0.3|=0.076

Which makes 0.2 the best approximation.

Use the Distributive Property to solve the equation.
umka21 [38]
X=-6

If you divide both sides by -5 5/5 is 0 & 20/5 is 4 the next step is to subtract 2 from both sides. -4-2 is -6
