Subtract from both sides:
Divide both sides by
And thus we solved the expression for l:
Let his total money be x.
He spent (3/7)*x of his money.
He gave 1/4(x-3/7x) to his sister.
which is : (1/4)*(4/7)*x = (1/7)*x
Now,
How much money he have in the beginning =
(3/7)*x+(1/7)*x+120=x
(4/7)*x+120=x
120=x-(4/7)*x
120=(3/7)*x
x=120*7/3 [cross multiplication]
x=280.
So, Alex had $280 in the beginning.
Answer:
Q = ( -3 , 6 ) .... R = ( -1 , 8 ) ...... S = ( -5 , 7 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Q = ( 1 + ( -4 ) , 4 + 2 ) = ( -3 , 6 )
R = ( 3 + ( -4 ) , 6 + 2 ) = ( -1 , 8 )
S = ( -1 + ( -4 ) , 5 + 2 ) = ( -5 , 7 )
Answer:
distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point T is on the horizontal ground and the angle of elevation of the top R of a tower is 63° and the height of the tower is 38 m high. The illustration forms a right angle triangle. The height RS of the tower is the opposite side of the triangle formed. The hypotenuse side of the triangle is the point from the ground T to the top of the tower R. The adjacent side of the triangle is the side TS.
using tangential ratio
tan 63° = opposite/adjacent
tan 63° = 38/adjacent
cross multiply
adjacent tan 63° = 38
divide both sides by tan 63°
adjacent side = 38/tan 63°
adjacent side = 38/1.96261050551
adjacent side = 19.3619670807
distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)
Answer:
0.324
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Success rate = 30%
p = 30% = 0.3
q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7
Number of trials, n = 6
Probability of having exactly 2 successes ; x = 2
P(x = 2)
Usibgbtge binomial probability relation :
P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)
P(x = 2) = 6C2 * 0.3^2 * 0.7^4
P(x = 2) = 15 * 0.3^2 * 0.7^4
P(x = 2). = 0.324135
P(x = 2) = 0.324
