Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x−5)+4x−2=4

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−5)+4x−2=4

(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+4x+−2=4(Distribute)

3x+−15+4x+−2=4

(3x+4x)+(−15+−2)=4(Combine Like Terms)

7x+−17=4

7x−17=4

Step 2: Add 17 to both sides.

7x−17+17=4+17

7x=21

Step 3: Divide both sides by 7.

x=3

A sheet of glass has a density of

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

2500 kg/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of a material is the ratio of mass and volume of that material.

The S.I unit for density is grams per centimeters cubed (g/cm³) or kilograms per meter cubed (kg/m³)

Given density as 2.5 g/cm³ , convert to kg/m³

Formula is;

1g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³

2.5 g/cm³=? cross-multiply

=2.5×1000 = 2500 kg/m³

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

$\frac{19}{18,750,000}=0.0000010133333333$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that in a recent year, 304 of the approximately 300,000,000 people in the United States were struck by lightning.

$\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Number of possible outcomes}}$

$\text{P( A randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year)}=\frac{304}{300,000,000}$

$\text{P( A randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year)}=\frac{19}{18,750,000}$

$\text{P( A randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year)}=0.0000010133333333$

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year is $\frac{19}{18,750,000}=0.0000010133333333$ .
