Answer: If you're looking for the value of x, it's 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the numbers. x-10-2x+7=8+x-10-3x--->x-3-2x=8+x-10-3x

Combine like terms. x-3-2x=8+x-10-3x ---> -x-3=8+x-10-3x

Subtract the numbers.-x-3=8+x-10-3x---> -x-3=-2+x-3x

Combine like terms. -x-3=-2+-3x---> -x-3=-2-2x

Rearrange terms. -x-3=-2-2x---> -x-3=-2x-2

Hope that helps!

You gotta collect the like terms in order to simplify the answer...

So you have: 8 + x - 10 - 3x

Like terms in this are: x, - 3x ( we have a positive x and a negative 3x) remember x represents 1 so it’ll be 1 - 3x= -2x

And 8 -10= -2

Your answer is -2x - 2

Hope that helps :)

In a statistics mid-term exam graded out of 100 points, the distribution of the exam scores was bi-modal with a mean of 70 point
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a normal distribution for the distribution of the points scored by students in the exam, the formula for normal distribution is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

Where

x = points scored by students

u = mean score

s = standard deviation

From the information given,

u = 70 points

s = 10.

We want to find the probability of students scored between 40 points and 100 points. It is expressed as

P(40 lesser than x lesser than or equal to 100)

For x = 40,

z = (40 - 70)/10 =-3.0

Looking at the normal distribution table, the corresponding z score is 0.0135

For x = 100,

z = (100 - 70)/10 =3.0

Looking at the normal distribution table, the corresponding z score is 0.99865

P(40 lesser than x lesser than or equal to 100) = 0.99865 - 0.0135 = 0.98515

The percentage of students scored between 40 points and 100 points will be 0.986 × 100 = 98.4%

Festus bought a computer at $736.34, Apple iPad at $249.99, and a printer at 381.23. The sales tax rate is %6. What is the total
tatuchka [14]

The total purchase price including sales tax will be $1449.6136

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Festus bought a computer at $736.34, Apple iPad at $249.99 and a printer at $381.23

So, the <u>total price of all three items</u> =(736.34+249.99+381.23) dollar = 1367.56 dollar.

The sales tax rate is 6%. So, <u>the amount of sales tax</u> =(1367.56*0.06) dollar= 82.0536 dollar.

Thus, the total purchase price including sales tax will be:  (1367.56 + 82.0536) dollar = 1449.6136 dollar
