Solve the equation: <br> 2x + B= C<br><br> X=

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Add (-2X) to both sides:
2X + B + (-2X) = C + (-2X)
If we (rearrange) it into B + 2X + (-2X) = C + (-2X)
B + 2X - 2X = C + (-2X)
Since +2X - 2X = 0
B + 0 = C + (-2X)
B = C + (-2X)
B = C - 2X

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know that its a right triangle and 8 and $\sqrt{17}$ are not the hypotenuse.

the equation for this is $a^{2}$ + $b^{2}$ = $c^{2}$ with c being the hypotenuse.

$8^{2}$ + $\sqrt{17} ^{2}$ = $c^{2}$

64+17= $c^{2}$

81=c

$\sqrt{81}$ =c

9=c

Four girls and six boys are in a Spanish club. Three of the people will be chosen at random to represent the group in a photogra

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:50 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 4 girls and 6 boys in a club

Probability of choosing 1 girl and 2 boys is

$=\dfrac{\text{No of ways of choosing 1 girl and 2 boys }}{\text{No of ways of choosing 3 member out of 10 member}}$

No of ways of choosing 1 girl and 2 boys $=^4C_1\times ^6C_2$

$P=\dfrac{^4C_1\times ^6C_2}{^{10}C_3}$

$P=\dfrac{4\times 15}{10\times 3\times 4}$

$P=\dfrac{15}{30}=\frac{1}{2}$

i.e. $50\%$
