Solve for x Show your work

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this and show your work, you have to start of with the equation (3x - 6) = 30.

You then have to add 6 to both sides like this:

(3x - 6) = 30 \\   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: + 6  \:  \:  \:   \:  \:   + 6

So then the 6 is cancelled out, and you are left with

3x = 36.

Now you just have to divide both sides by 3 like this:

\frac{3x}{3}  =  \frac{36}{3}

Which cancels 3 out, and you are left with

x = 12.

Zach is a shoe salesman, and he works on commission. This week, there is a special incentive to sell shoes and boots by a certai
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Zach earns $10 and for the pair of boots Zach earns $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be x the number of pairs of shoes

Let be y the number of pairs of boots

Then we can establish the following system of equations with the data of the statement:

5x + 9y = 185 \\7x + 9y = 205

We subtract the second equation from the first equation to eliminate the variable y and solve for x, just like this:

7x+9y-5x-9y=205-185\\2x=20\\x=\frac{20}{2}\\x=10

For y replacing in the first equation the value of x and solving for y:

5.10 + 9y = 185\\9y=185-50\\y=\frac{135}{9}\\y=15

So for the pair of shoes Zach earns $10 and for the pair of boots Zach earns $15

Someone please help me! Studying for finals and don’t understand how to complete problems like this! Thank you!
Drupady [299]

Answer:

(d). \frac{152}{377}

Step-by-step explanation:

sin² β + cos² β = 1

cos (α + β) = cos α cos β - sin α sin β

cos α = √(1 - \frac{400}{841} ) = 21 / 29

cos β = 12 / 13

sin β = √(1 - \frac{144}{169} ) = 5 / 13

sin α = 20 / 29

cos (α + β) = \frac{21}{29} × \frac{12}{13} - \frac{20}{29} × \frac{5}{13} = \frac{152}{377}

Suppose that we have two identical boxes: box 1 and box 2. box 1 contains 5 red balls and 3 blue balls. box 2 contains 2 red bal
sineoko [7]

(a) The probability of drawing a blue marble at random from a given box is the number of blue marbles divided by the total number of marbles. We assume that the probability of selecting one of two boxes at random is 1/2 for each box.

... P(blue) = P(blue | box1)·P(box1) + P(blue | box2)·P(box2) = (3/8)·(1/2) + (4/6)·(1/2)

... P(blue) = 25/48 . . . . probability the ball is blue

(b) P(box1 | blue) = P(blue & box1)/P(blue) = (P(blue | box1)·P(box1)/P(blue)

... = ((3/8)·(1/2))/(25/48)

... P(box1 | blue) = 9/25 . . . . probability a blue ball is from box 1
