The equation that can be used to represent the situation given that x is the number of hours spent babysitting is 4(x + 8) = 56
<h3>How to write and solve equation</h3>
- Amount paid per hour for babysitting =$4
- Total amount made = $56
- Hours spent babysitting on Sunday = 8 hours
Total earned babysitting on Sunday = Hours spent babysitting on Sunday × Amount paid per hour
= 8 × 4
= $32
Number of hours he babysat on Saturday = $56 - (8 × 4) ÷ 4
= 56 - 32 ÷ 4
= 24 ÷ 4
= 6 hours
A. 8x+4 = 56
8x = 56 - 4
8x = 52
x = 52/8
x = 6.5
B. 4x+8 = 56
4x = 56 - 8
4x = 48
x = 48/4
x = 12
C. 8(x + 4) = 56
8x + 32 = 56
8x = 56 - 32
8x = 24
x = 24/8
x = 3
D. 4(x + 8) = 56
4x + 32 = 56
4x = 56 - 32
4x = 24
x = 24/4
x = 6

Answer:
The probability is 0.026 to 3 d.p
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate this , we shall be using the Bernoulli approximation.
let P = percentage of voters supporting the increase = 41% = 41/100 = 0.41
q = percentage of voters not supporting = 100-41% = 59% = 59/100 = 0.59
Now we want to calculate that exactly 15 out of 25 will vote in favor
Mathematically that would be ;
25C15 p^15 q^10
= 25C15 0.41^15 0.59^10
= 0.025981307443 or simply 0.026 to 3 decimal places
-4/7 > -2
greater then goes to the right and less then goes to the left
-4/7 is located to the right of -2
