If 2x+y=5, then y=5-2x, so he substituted 5-2x correctly.
x+4x=5x, so he combined like terms correctly.
If 5x-10=10, then 5x=10+10 -> 5x=20, so he subtracted 10 from the right side instead of adding 10 to the right side.
The answer is C.
Here's the correct solution:
Answer:
x = 76
Step-by-step explanation:
to the power of 1/4 means 7 is the 4th root of (6x + 1945), so you do 7^4 which is 2401, and you subtract 1945, and you get 456. 6x=456, and x= 456/6 so x = 76
Answer:
The answer is 0.75.
Step-by-step explanation:
To use probability of a complement event, we need to find the situation where none of the couples are sitting next to each other which can happen either two husbands are sitting in the seats 2 and 3 or two wives are sitting in the seats 2 and 3. Also in the first scenario, the wives would need to be sitting at the opposite ends to their husbands and vice versa for the second scenario.
So there are in total 4 scenarios where no couple is sitting next to each other.
There are a total of 16 different ways that they can be seated so the probability of compelement is 16 - 4 = 12, which is 3/4 of the total, meaning that the probability of at least one of the wives sittting next to her husband is 0.75 or 75%.
I hope this answer helps.

Answer:
The answer is 25 :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, this explanation will probably be super confusing so sorry about that but you get two statements about each aquarium. Aquarium 1 starts with 4.6 gallons and will INCREASE by 1.2 gallons every minute. So now you have statement one, so let's plug it into the y=mx+b formula. y is the result/ the answer you get, m is the slope/how much your points INCREASE or DECREASE. x is the variable you use to plug and b is your starting point. So you are trying to find the y which means we cannot plug it in yet so right now we have y=mx+b. your next letter to switch out is m. Like I said, M is how much each point increases or decreases and if you go back, the statement says "will increase by 1.2 gallons every minute." so your m is 1.2 and will be positive because of the keyword INCREASE. now we have y=1.2x+b. B is your starting point so let's go back to the statement to find the starting point/ number, it states "Aquarium 1 contains 4.6 gallons" meaning aquarium 1 starts with 4.6 gallons, so let's plug it into the equation. you should have y=1.2x+4.6, which is your first equation. Your next equation will be a bit more tricky. we start with y=mx+b and we start with finding m, how much each point will increase or decrease. "Isaac will begin DRAINING aquarium 2 at a rate of 0.8 gallon per every minute." so M will be .8 but notice the keywords DRAINING, meaning decreasing. So because Isaac isn't filling and increasing, but he is decreasing, you will make .8 negative. so you should currently have y=-.8x+b. Now let's find the starting point, or B. "Aquarium 2 contains 54.6 gallons of water." making your m 54.6 gallons of water. Let's plug it in. y=-.8x+54.6. Now that you have to equations, this is how you will find when both equations have a point intercepting, or in other words, the answer you are looking for. you will remove the "y=" on both equations, and place an "=" between them. You should have something looking like this on your paper. "1.2x+4.6 = -.8x+54.6". Now you are going to combine like terms, so look on both sides of the equation and look for the 2 numbers with no "x" next to them. You should find "4.6" on your left and "54.6" on your right side of the equal sign. you are going to equal out "4.6" with itself by writing "-4.6" underneath it but because you did this on one side of the equal sign, you have to do it on the other side but before you do so you should have "1.2x = -.8x+54.6". now let's subtract "4.6" to "54.6" you will write "-4.6" underneath "54.6" to get your new number, "50". your problem should look like "1.2x = -.8x + 50". now we are going to do the same for your number's with an "x" by it. on the right side of the equation, you will cancel out "-.8x". notice it's NEGATIVE so, in order to cancel out a negative number, you just make the number positive. so you will ADD ".8x" to "-.8" to get 0 but because you added ".8x" to one side, you have to do it to the other side. Let's check what we have first, you should have "1.2x = 50". so now let's ADD ".8x" to "1.2x". you will get "2x" so now you should have both equations simplified like this, "2x = 50" and now we are going to make x one so we will divide "2x" by "2" to get "x", but because you did this to one side, you have to do it to the other. so now you divide "50" by "2" to get 25. now you should have written down "x = 25". Thank you so much for reading this and please let me know if this was helpful or confusing. :)))
