13/52. There are 13 red hearts in a deck of 52 cards.
Answer: x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
First convert 3/4 to decimal= 0.75
0.75 (8x - 4) = 7x + 2
6x - 3 = 7x + 2
Transpose 7x from right hand side to the left hand side
6x - 7x = 2 + 3
-x = 5
x = -5
I hope this helps.
Answer:
Let 'a' be the first term, 'r' be the common ratio and 'n' be the number of terms
Series = 2+6+18.......= 2+2•3¹+ 2•3².......= 728
Now,

So,

Therefore, number of terms is 6
For this problem, let x be the number of children and y for adults. Formulate the equations: 1st equation, x + y = 3,200 and 2nd equation 5x + 9y = 24,000. Re-arrange 1st equation into x = 3200 - y. Then, substitute into 2nd equation, 5(3,200-y) + 9y = 24,000. Then, solve for y. The 16,000 - 5y + 9y = 24000. Final answer is, y = 2000 adults went to watch the movie.
