Answer:



Step-by-step explanation:
We can create an equation for this problem by converting the words to an equation.
The <em>flat fee</em> was $119. We then add $75 for every hour worked. This means that this becomes
. Since the total cost was $306.50, the equation is
.
We can now solve for x, the amount of hours worked, to find it’s value.

The possible combinations are:
1,9
2,8
3,7
4,6
9,1
8,2
7,3
6,4
Total straws: 9
Probability of first being 1: 1/9
Probability of second being 9: 1/8
Probability of both: 1/9 x 1/8 = 1/72
This will be multiplied by 8 as there are 8 possible combinations:
8 x 1/72
= 8/72
= 1/9
Answer:
x = 1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(3x-1+3x) = 3
add like terms:
-5(6x-1) =3
distribute -5 throughout the Parentheses:
-30x+5= 3
move the constant to the right side and change it's sign:
-30x=3-5
calculate:
-30x= -2
Divide both sides by -30:
x = 1/15
