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!

A bag contains 50 lottery balls, numbered 1-50. A ball is chosen at random, then a month of the year is selected. What is the pr
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

4/75

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two sample spaces

1.Lottery balls

2. Month of the year

For lottery balls the sample space is S= 50

Multiples of 3 between 1 and 50 are

(3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,45,48)= 16 in numbers

Hence the probability of choosing a multiple of 3

Pr(multiple of 3) = 16/50= 8/25

Also the sample space for months of the year is S= 12

Two months starts with letter m, March and may

Pr(of months with m) = 2/12= 1/6

the probability of choosing a multiple of 3 and a month starting with the letter M= 8/25*1/6= 8/150= 4/75

In preparation for the Senior Prom, 8 seniors got together and decided to travel in style and rent a limousine. They investigate
Snowcat [4.5K]
<span>The limousine will cost $240.
$180 for the first three hours, plus 30 for each hour after. They need two extra hours.
So, 180+30(2)=240.
They also want to leave a $20 dollar tip.
So, 240+20=260
That is $260 dollars they need to pay altogether.
Divide that number by the number of students and you'll get how much they each must pay.
260/8=32.50

$32.50 each.
