Given:
Temperature in the morning = 6°F.
By the late afternoon, the temperature had dropped 9°F.
To find:
The temperature by the late afternoon.
Solution:
Temperature by the late afternoon = Morning temperature - Dropped temperature
Using the given values and the above formula, we get
Temperature by the late afternoon = 6°F - 9°F
Temperature by the late afternoon = -3°F
Therefore, the temperature by the late afternoon is -3°F.
Answer:
2x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3(x-2)-3(x-6)
2x+3x-6-3x+18
2x-6+18
2x+12
<span>The probability of missing the first shot is 40%.
When she misses the first shot, the probability of missing the second shot is very, very low, only 5%.
That means that the probability of missing both shots must be much smaller than the probability of missing the first shot.
40/100 * 5/100
0.4 * 0.05
= 0.02
= 2%</span>
There is actually 2 ways to solve this, I will show you both.
The first is obvious, solve for x in the first one, and plug it into the 2nd one and get the answer
4x + 7 = 12
4x = 5
x = 
8() + 3
2 * 5 + 3
10 + 3
13
The 2nd option is to manipulate the 4x + 7 to be 8x + 3
4x + 7 = 12
start by moving the 7 over
4x = 5
multiply both sides by 2
8x = 10
and add 3 to both sides
8x + 3 = 13
