Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
f(x) = 3x - 1
f(x) = -7
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute: -7 = 3x - 1
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: -6 = 3x
- Isolate <em>x</em>: -2 = x
- Rewrite: x = -2
Steps:
1. Substitute the y in 4x + 10 with -5x-10
-5x-10= 4x + 10
2. Add 5x on both sides
-10= 9x + 10
3. Subtract 10 on both sides
-20= 9x
4. Divide by 9 on both sides
5. Your answer is
X= -20/9
For #6;
We know that there are 46% male students and 30% of them are seniors. This means that we have to assume that 30% of the male students are seniors and that 30% of the female students are seniors. Taking 30% of 46% gives us 13.8%.
For #7;
We are looking for the possibility that we choose a junior student (22%) or a sophomore student (28%). This adds up to 50% (22%+28% = 50%). That is out answer.
1/8 divided by 3/4 is (1/8) / (3/4). When you divide fractions, you flip the 2nd number and change the divide into multiply. So (1/8)*(4/3). Multiply top by top and bottom by bottom to get 4/24. That simplifies to 1/6
