Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive Property: a(b + c) = (a*b) + (a*c)

           2x - 4(x - 3) = -8 + 5x - 8

2x + x * (-4) - 3*(-4) = -8 + 5x - 8

          2x - 4x + 12  = -8 + 5x - 8    

   2x -  4x - 5x + 12 = -8 - 8

               -7x  + 12  = -16

                       -7x  = -16  -12

                      -7x   = -28

                          x = -28/-7

x = 4

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-4x+12=5x-16

12-2x=5x-16

12+16=5x+2x

28=7x

4=x

klasskru [66]

Answer:

X = 2 / Z = 78

Explanation:

We are given 102 degrees, and the formula across from it, the one with the x, equals the same degrees. Knowing that we have to get them to equal each other, subtract 102-86, and you'll get 16. Next, divide 16 by the given number, 8, and you'll get x = 2

Knowing a straight line equals 180 degrees, subtract 180-102, and you'll get z, which is 78

Drag each number to the correct location on the table. Not all numbers will be used.
Airida [17]

Answer:

Complete Table:

Result of Roll ------ Frequency ------- Experimental Probability

1 --------------------------- 22 ------------------- 0.176

2 --------------------------- 13 ------------------- 0.104

3 --------------------------- 18 ------------------- 0.144

4 --------------------------- 29 ------------------- 0.232

5 --------------------------- 37 ------------------- 0.296

6 --------------------------- 6 ------------------- 0.048

Step-by-step explanation:

Required: Complete the table

The table is divided into 3:

1. Result of Roll

2. Frequency (F)

3. Experimental Probability (P)

The relationship between (2) and (3) is:

P = \frac{F}{N}

Where

N = Number of Rolls

N = 125

For Roll of Result = 2

Frequency = 13

The probability is calculated as thus:

P = \frac{13}{125}

P = 0.104

For Roll of Result = 3

Probability = 0.144

The Frequency is calculated as thus:

0.144 = \frac{F}{125}

F = 0.144 * 125

F = 18

For Roll of Result = 4

Frequency = 29

The probability is calculated as thus:

P = \frac{29}{125}

P = 0.232

For Roll of Result = 5

Probability = 0.296

The Frequency is calculated as thus:

0.296 = \frac{F}{125}

F = 0.296* 125

F = 37

For Roll of Result = 6

Frequency = 6

The probability is calculated as thus:

P = \frac{6}{125}

P = 0.048

For Roll of Result = 1.

To get the frequency; we subtract the sum of frequencies of roll of results 2 to 6 from the total number of rolls.

In other words:

Frequency of 1 = Total Rolls - (Frequency of 2 + Frequency of 3 + Frequency of 4 + Frequency of 5 + Frequency of 6)

Frequency of 1 = 125 - (13 + 18 + 29 + 37 +6)

Frequency of 1 = 125 - 103

Frequency of 1 = 22

The probability is calculated as thus:

P = \frac{F}{N}

P = \frac{22}{125}

P = 0.176
