Answer:

X=5

Step-by-step explanation:

divide by 2 on both sides first then you have

3x-7 = 8

take 7 to the other side so that you have an X factor on one side, thus

3x =15

then divide by 3 to remain with X

X = 5

  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

2(3x - 7) = 16

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 2 on both sides:                                  3x - 7 = 8
  2. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 7 on both sides:                                     3x = 15
  3. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 3 on both sides:                                  x = 5

Use slopes and y-intercepts to determine if the lines y=5x+5 and 5x−y=−5 are parallel.
GalinKa [24]

Answer: They are not parallel, they are coincident

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines have the same slope but a different y-intercept, the lines are parallel. If two lines have the same slope and the same y-intercept, the lines are coincident.

We can rewrite 5x−y=−5 adding -5x to both sides and multiplying by -1:

5x - y =-5

5x - y -5x = -5 - 5x (adding -5x to both sides)

-y = -5 - 5x

Multiplying by -1

y = 5x + 5

Both equations look the same so they are coincident. They have the same intercept y=5 and the same slope m=5.

number of odd cards=4

Total number of cards=8

Number of cards less than 4=3  {1,2,3}

Required~probability=\frac{4}{8} *\frac{3}{8} =\frac{3}{16}
