Answer: 1. x=2
2. x=5
3.x=-3
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.
Hope this helped

Step-by-step explanation:
If Richard can paint the living room in 4 hrs, then in 1 hour he can paint 1/4 of the living .
If Vanessa can paint the living room in 5 hours, then in one hour, she can paint 1/5 of the living room.
In one hour Richard and Vanessa can paint 1/4 + 1/5 = 1/y
y is the number of hours it will take both Richard and Vanessa to paint the living room. 1/y is how much of the house they can paint in one hour.
1/4 + 1/5 = 1/y
(5 + 4)/20. ( find the LCM)
9/20 = 1/y
9y= 20
y = 20/9
y = 2.22hrs
y = 2 hrs 13 mins
Answer: 0.206
Step-by-step explanation: the probability of employees that needs corrective shoes are =8%= 8/100 = 0.08
Probability of employees that needs major dental work = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15
Probability of employees that needs both corrective shoes and dental work = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03
The probability that an employee will need either corrective shoes or major dental work = (Probability an employee will need correct shoes and not need dental work) or (probability that an employee will need dental work or not corrective shoes)
Probability of employee not needing corrective shoes = 1 - 0.08 = 0.92
Probability of employee not needing dental work = 1 - 0.15 = 0.85
The probability that an employee will need either corrective shoes or major dental work = (0.08×0.85) + (0.15×0.92) = 0.068 + 0.138 = 0.206 = 20.6%
The probability that an employee will need either corrective shoes or dental work = 0.206.
Please note that the word "either" implies that we must choose one of the two options (corrective shoes or dental work) and not both.
