yeet this is a thicc problem...

6x - 14 + 3(2x-1) = 5 - 2(x-10)

first expand

6x - 14 + 6x -3 = 5 -2x-20

now put constants and variables on either sides of the thingamajig

6x+6x+2x= 5 - 20 + 3 + 14

14x = 2

x = 1/7

i deserve an award for that XD

Sajia has 30 Books in her library. she sold 9 books at the thrift store on Saturday. Write and solve and inequality to determine

ELEN [110]

Sajia can sell 21 books she can sell if she comes back on sunday and the required inequality is $9 + x \leq 30$

Solution:

Given that Sajia has 30 Books in her library

She sold 9 books at the thrift store on Saturday

To find: We have to write and solve an inequality to determine number of more books she can sell if she comes back on sunday

Let "x" be the number of more books she can sell if she comes back on sunday

We can write a inequality as:

$\text{ books already sold } + \text{ number of books remaining } \leq \text{ total number of books she has }$

$9 + x \leq 30$

Now moving 9 from L.H.S to R.H.S we get,

$x \leq 30 - 9$

On solving 30 - 9 = 21,

$x \leq 21$

So Sajia can sell 21 books she can sell if she comes back on sunday

One city's highest temperature during this passed summer was 34 degrees Celsius, a second city's highest temperature over

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

$\°F = 93.2$

City 2 has a higher temperature

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\°F = (\°C * 9/5) + 32$

$City\ 2 = 97\°F$

Required

Convert 34°C to °F

Substitute 34 for C in the above formula:

$\°F = (34 * 9/5) + 32$

$\°F = 61.2 + 32$

$\°F = 93.2$

Comparing 93.2 to City 2's temperature of 97; we can conclude that city 2 has a higher temperature

Answer:

So, we conclude that the best estimate for the difference in the proportion of smokers is 4.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 27 of the 193 males in the sample smoke while 16 of the 169 females in the sample smoke.

We have the following proportion:

$27:x=193:100\%\\\\193x=27\cdot 100\\\\193x=2700\\\\x=\frac{2700}{193}\\\\x=13.9\%$

So we get that 13.9% of men smoke.

We have the following proportion:

$16:x=169:100\%\\\\169x=16\cdot 100\\\\169x=1600\\\\x=\frac{1600}{169}\\\\x=9.5\%$

So we get that 9.5% of women smoke.

We get: 13.9%-9.5%=4.4%.

So, we conclude that the best estimate for the difference in the proportion of smokers is 4.4%.

A blueprint uses a scale factor of 3 inches = 2 feet. What is the area on the blueprint of a 3,500 square foot house in inches?

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

7875 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

4ft^2 = 2ft * 2ft

4ft^2 = 3in * 3in

4ft^2 = 9in^2

For 3,500 square foot

3,500 square foot = x

Divide bith expressions

4/3500 = 9/x

4x = 9 * 3500

4x = 31500

x = 31500/4

x = 7875 square inches

Hence the area of the house in inches is 7875 square inches
