I'm thinking this is what the problem looks like: 
. The first thing to do is to move the 
over to the other side because it has a common denominator with the other side. Doing that and at the same time combining them over their common denominator looks like this: 
. The best way to solve for x now is to cross-multiply to get 3(4-x)=-4(x-4). Distributing through the parenthesis is 12 - 3x = -4x + 16. Solving for x gives us x = 4. Of course when we sub a 4 back in for x we get real problems, don't we? Dividing by zero breaks every rule in math that there ever was! So, yes, the solution is extraneous.
Answer:
The probability of spinning an even number and flipping heads is 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
You spin the spinner and flip a coin.
A spinner that has 1 of each number, 1-6
Total events =12
(1,H),(2,H),(3,H),(4,H),(5,H),(6,H)
(1,T),(2,T),(3,T),(4,T),(5,T),(6,T)
We are supposed to find probability of spinning an even number and flipping heads
Favorable events : (2,H),(4,H)(6,H) = 3
Total events = 12
The probability of spinning an even number and flipping heads =
Hence The probability of spinning an even number and flipping heads is 1/4
Answer:
x = 2.5 or 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 3/4.
|5 -x| = 10/4 = 2.5
This resolves to two equations:
- 5 -x = 2.5 ⇒ x = 5 -2.5 = 2.5
- 5 -x = -2.5 ⇒ x = 5 +2.5 = 7.5
The solutions are x = 2.5 or 7.5.
