Answer:

x = 41/3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

7(1x - 3) = 4(x + 5)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Simplify:                                        7(x - 3) = 4(x + 5)
  2. Distribute:                                     7x - 21 = 4x + 20
  3. Subtract 4x on both sides:          3x - 21 = 20
  4. Add 21 on both sides:                  3x = 41
  5. Divide 3 on both sides:                x = 41/3

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    7(1(41/3) - 3) = 4(41/3 + 5)
  2. Multiply:                        7(41/3 - 3) = 4(41/3 + 5)
  3. Subtract/Add:               7(32/3) = 4(56/3)
  4. Multiply:                        224/3 = 224/3

Here, we see that 224/3 is indeed equivalent to 224/3. ∴ x = 41/3 is a solution to the equation.

And we have our final answer!

Which of these could be considered a statistical question? A.How many pets does Tom have at home? B.On average, how many plants
meriva

Answer:

<h2>B. On average, how many plants do the students in your class have at home?</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A statistical question must have the characteristic of variability, that is, it must be a question that can be answered by a collective, where each person has a slaightly or big different answer, because all of them are different, that's the variability ingredient.

Among the options, you can notice that only B has this characteristic, it's the only statistical question. In other words, question A and C are questions about one person, they don't have variability.
