Answer:
x = - 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(x-4) = -9(x - 1)
1. Distributive Property
-3 * x -3 *-4 = -9 * x -9 * -1
-3x + 12 = -9x + 9
Hint: 2 negatives make a postive
-3x + 12 = -9x + 9
2. Subtract 12 on both sides
-3x + 12 - 12 = -9x + 9 - 12
-3x = -9x + -3
3. Add 9x on both sides
-3x + 9x = -9x + 9x + -3
6x = -3
4. Divide both sides by 6 to isolate the variable
6x/6 = -3/6
x = - 1/2
Check:
-3(-1/2-4) = -9( -1/2- 1)
3/2 + 12 = 9/2 + 9
3/2 + 12 ( we need a common denominator so...lets make it 2 )
3/2 + 12*2/1*2
3/2 + 24/2 = 27/2 = 13 1/2 = 13. 5
Now...
9/2 + 9 ( we need a common denominator so..lets make it 2 )
9/2 + 9*2/1*2
9/2 + 18/2 = 27/2 = 13 1/2 = 13.5
13.5 = 13.5 CORRECT!
27/2 = improper fraction
13 1/2 = mixed number
13.5= decimal form

Answer:
probability that Stu buys a sandwich and gets the bus = 0.35
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of success of two independent events is the product of the respective probabilities, i.e. the multiplication rule.
P(Sandwich) = P(S) = 0.5
P(Bus) = P(B) = 0.7
Assuming the events are independent,
probability that Stu buys a sandwich and gets the bus
= P(SB) = P(S)*P(B) = 0.5*0.7 = 0.35
