For the first one, they got rid of the 6x when they shouldn’t have, and the correct answer is x = 21.5
For the second one, 47 would be subtracted by 180, not 90, and the correct answer is 133
For the third one, 5x - 10 doesn’t equal 115, 5x - 10 equals 180 - 115, and the correct answer is x = 17
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
This situation has two unknowns - the total number of half dollars and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.
- h+q=31 is an equation representing the total number of coins
- 0.50h+0.25q=11 is an equation representing the total value in money based on the number of coin. 0.50 and 0.25 come from the value of a half dollar and quarter individually.
We write the first equation in terms of q by subtracting it across the equal sign to get h=31-q. We now substitute this for h in the second equation.
0.50(31-q)+0.25q=11
15.5-0.50q+0.25q=11
15.5-0.25q=11
After simplifying, we subtract 15.5 across and divide by the coefficient of q.
-0.25q=-4.5
q=4
We now know of the 31 coins that 4 are quarters.

Answer:
There is an 85% probability that the sprinkler head will be activated.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have these following probabilities:
50% of the first sprinkler being triggered
90% of the first sprinkler being reliable
50% of the second sprinkler being triggered
80% of the second sprinkler being reliable.
What is the probability that the sprinkler head will be activated?
is the probability of the first sprinkler being triggered and activated. So:
is the probability of the second sprinkler being triggered and activated. So:
There is an 85% probability that the sprinkler head will be activated.
