How many solutions are there to the equation below? 8(x-3) = 7x- 20

Mathematics
1 answer:
luda_lava [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 4 (ONE solution)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a first order linear equation, so we can expect 1 solution.

Multiplying out the left side, we get:

8x - 24 = 7x - 20, which simplifies to:

x = 4 (ONE solution)

A total of $2100 for a house painting job is to be divided between two painters in the ratio of 3 to 4. How much does each paint
kakasveta [241]
\bf 2100\qquad 3:4\qquad \cfrac{3}{4}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot \frac{2100}{3+4}}{4\cdot \frac{2100}{3+4}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 300}{4\cdot 300}\implies \cfrac{900}{1200}

Suppose the test scores of students in a class are normally distributed with a mean of 86 and a standard deviation of 4. What is
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the z-score for a student that had a particular mark at the test

To calculate the z-score, we need to use a mathematical formula

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

From the question;

x = 76

mean = 86

standard deviation SD = 4

Plugging these values in the equation, we have;

z-score = (76-86)/4 = -10/4 = -2.5

PLEASEEEEE HELPPPPP<br><br><br> Quick 15 points
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we only know the measure of the angles, we can only say the triangles are similar, not congruent.  We need at least one side measurement on each triangle to determine if the triangles are congruent.  And it would have to be the same side measurement.  Then we could use ASA (Angle side Angle) or AAS ( Angle Angle side) to determine congruence.

The triangles are similar

62+39 +79 = 180

The three angles are the same

<A = 62 = <X = 62

<B = 39 = <Y = 39

<C = 79 = <Z = 79

This is shown by AAA similarity

Express in the simplest form 777:147​
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

your answer should be 37:7

Try to reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).

The GCF of 777 and 147 is 21

Divide both terms by the GCF, 21:

777 ÷ 21 = 37

147 ÷ 21 = 7

The ratio 777 : 147 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 21 :

777 : 147 = 37 : 7

Therefore:

777 : 147 = 37 : 7
