Multiply 2nd equaton by 4 and add to first
-9x+4y=8
<u>-12x-4y=16 +</u>
-21x+0y=24
-21x=24
divide both sides by -21
x=-24/21
x=-8/7
C is answer
Answer:
The probability of seeing a person wearing black shoes before seeing a person wearing white ones = 60%
Step-by-step explanation:
People watched walking down the street = 100%
People wearing black shoes = 1/2 = 50%
People wearing white shoes = 1/3 = 33.33%
People wearing red shoes = 1/6 = 16.67%
Probability of black shoes to white shoes = percentage of persons wearing black shoes/sum of the percentages of people wearing black and white shoes)
= 50% : 33.33%
= 60% (50%/83.33%)
When expressed in ratio terms, it means that you will see 1.5 (50%/33.33% or 1.5 : 1) persons wearing black shoes before you see a person wearing white shoes.
If Peter worked 20 hours last week and makes $12 a hour, his gross pay was $240.
12 x 20 = 240.
Saying "a number" is the same as saying "x"
"Three more than a number" is the same as "three more than x"
If you have three more of something (say, marbles) than someone else, then you have their number of marbles plus three more.
Then, "Three more than x" is the same as "three plus x", or "3 + x"
Hope this helps! :)
