Hello!
-3(x - 14) + 9x = 6x + 42
Distribute the coefficient of the parenthesis:
-3(x) - 3(-14) + 9x = 6x + 42
-3x + 42 + 9x = 6x + 42
Combine like terms:
6x + 42 = 6x + 42
Both sides of the equation are the same, therefore:
There are infinitely many solutions.
Answer:
1/8 or 0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the length of the sides of the square ABCD.
Therefore, the length of CN and CM is x/2.
The area of the triangle MCN is:
The area of the square ABCD is:
Thus, the probability that a random point lies in the triangle MCN is:
The probability that the point will lie in the triangle MCN is 1/8 or 0.125.
