9n + 6 = 456
9n = 456 - 6
9n = 450
n = 450/9
n = 50
I believe this is the answer, though i'm not sure.
Number of returns = 47
Number of returns that contain errors = 5
Number of returns that does not contain error = 47 - 5 = 42
P(selecting none that contains error in the unreplaced selection) = 42/47 x 41/46 x 40/45 = 68880 / 97290 = 0.708
option C is the correct answer.
This can be solver by creating a small equation with x being the number and solving for x. The equation would be 8 + 2( x + 3 ) = -6
Solve for x:
8 + 2( x + 3 ) = -6
Distribute the 2
8+ (2x+6)=-6
Subtract 8
2x+6= -14
Add 6
2x= 8
Divide by 2
x=4
So the number you are looking for is 4
I hope this helps!
