-6x-7=3x+11 how to solve this problem

Shalnov [3]

You have to get the x to one side so you'll subtract 3x from -6x and 3x from 3x, the 3x will cancel out and -6x - 3x is -9x-7=11, you have to add 7 from both sides the 7+7 cancels out and also add 11+7 which leaves -9x=18, you have to divide -9x/-9 and do 18/-9, which gets you x=-2. Here's the work shown if you didn't what i said...
-6x-7=3x+11
-3x -3x
-9x-7=11
+7 +7
-9x=18
-9 -9
x=-2

What is the probability that the spinner lands on an even number or on the unshaded section? one-fifth two-fifths three-fifths f

Tasya [4]

The probability that the spinner lands on an even number or on the unshaded section is; 3/5

<h3>How to find the probability?</h3>

From the spinner attached, we see that the number of sections on the spinner is 5 sections.

Now, we can also see that;

Number of even numbers section = 2

Number of shaded sections = 1

Thus, probability that the spinner lands on an even number or on the unshaded section is;

P(even number or unshaded section) = (2 + 1)/5 = 3/5
