7. 7-2 = 5
5 x 2 = 10.
answer: x = 7
3x + 4 = 2x + 27
3x - 2x = 27 - 4
x = 23 <==
Answer:
Online Poll
We can conclude that
c. most Americans prefer Clay Aiken out of those former contestants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sample responses received from the poll = 941,434
Proportion of voters for Clay Aiken = 55%
Computed proportion of voters for the other 5 contestants = 45% (100% - 55%)
This gives an average of 7.5% (45%/5) for the other 5 contestants.
Therefore, the conclusion is that "most Americans prefer Clay Aiken out of those former contestants" in the American Idol contest.
Well, first you need to decide what place you want to round it TO.
Example: Round it to the nearest hundredth:
The next larger hundredth is 186.29 .
The next smaller hundredth is 186.28 .
Now look at it.
186.282 is closer to 186.28 than it is to 186.29 .
So the nearest hundredth is 186.28 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest hundredth, it becomes 186.28 .
Similarly . . .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest tenth, it becomes 186.3 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest whole number, it becomes 186 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest ten, it becomes 190 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest hundred, it becomes 200 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest thousand or anything larger,
it becomes zero.
I'm curious . . . where did this number come from ?
It happens to be one thousandth of the speed of light, in miles per hour.
Did it come up in science class, or did a science geek use it for
one of the problems in math ?
The equation for this problem would be 56=2x+5x, which can be simplified to 56=7x, x being the number of cups of soda. To find x you must get it alon be dividing both sides by 7 (56/7=7x/7). Doing this gives you 8=x, or in other words 8 cups of soda.
Hope this helps!
