It is a linear equation with only one unknown, although it looks strange because of the fractions, so lets get rid of the fractions:
<span>2/x = 1/4
</span>(2/x) = (<span>1/4)
</span>4*(2/x) = <span>1
8/x = 1
8 = 1*x
x = 8
that is the solution</span>
He can buy 6 water bottles that are $3 a piece.
Answer:
c=5
Step-by-step explanation:
5
He will have a 1/531,441 chance of winning next week.
There are 10 balls in each container; for 6 containers, this gives us 10^6 = 1,000,000. There is 1 correct combination of balls, so his chance the first week is 1/1,000,000.
The second week, 1 ball is removed from each container; this will give us 9^6 = 531,441 chances. There is 1 correct combination, so he will have a 1/531,441 chance of winning.
3x+6, you have to distribute the negative to get the parentheses away and simplify
