Answer:

Chukwu's share is of $57.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

Chukwu's share is x.

Abdul's share is y.

Kunle's share is z.

Chukwu, Abdul and kunle are to share $142

This means that x + y + z = 142

Abdul gets $11.00 less than Chukwu

This means that:

y = x - 11

$7.00 more than Kunle.

This means that:

y = z + 7

So

z = y - 7

z = x - 11 - 7

z = x - 18

How much is Chukwu's share?

We want to find x, so:

x + y + z = 142

x + x - 11 + x - 18 = 142

3x - 29 = 142

3x = 171

x = \frac{171}{3}

x = 57

Chukwu's share is of $57.

A mix of factoring by grouping. Factor the exressions. 17ax+17a-x-1 Please explain/show steps on how to do this!
mario62 [17]

Answer:

(x+1)(17a-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

17ax+17a-x-1

We have to factorize the given expression.

Pair up the terms

(17ax+17a)+(-x-1)

Now, taking common factor

17a(x+1)-1(x+1)

Taking common (x+1)

(x+1)(17a-1)

Now, we get

(x+1)(17a-1)

This is required factors of given expression.

Which graph shows a set of ordered pairs that represent a function?<br><br>Need help​
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The third graph, the top right graph

Step-by-step explanation:

A function when determined graphically is a graph that passes the straight line test, which means if there is any two points on the graph which you can plot a vertical straight line going through both of them it is not a function.  If 1 x value is equal to 2 y values, it is not a function.

Juanita rolls a number cube x times. For which value of x are the experimental probability and the theoretical probability most
ehidna [41]

Answer:

1000


Step-by-step explanation:

The theory is that <em><u>"experimental probability goes closer and closer in value to the theoretical probability as the number of trials increase."</u></em>


So <em>more trials means more they are closer and equivalent.</em>

So out of the answer choices, the largest number of trials is 1000.


1000 is the correct answer.
