-2.3x + 4.2x = 15.01         original equation

1.9x = 15.01                    combine like terms

1.9x/1.9 = 15.01/1.9        divide both sides by 1.9 to get x alone

<u>x = 7.9</u>                           simplify

CHECK YOUR WORK:

<u>plug in the solution to x into the original equation like so:</u>

-2.3(7.9) + 4.2(7.9) = 15.01        original equation w/ substitute for x

-18.17 + 33.18 = 15.01                simplify multiplication

<u>15.01 = 15.01</u>                             simplify addition

<u>When you get an answer like this, you know that the solution to x that you found is correct.</u>

Answer:

x = 7.9

Step-by-step explanation:

-2.3x + 4.2x = 15.01

combine like terms

1.9x = 15.01

divide both sides by 1.9

x = 7.9

If one three-digit number ( 0 cannot be a left digit) is chosen at random from all those that can be made from the following set
Oksana_A [137]

The probability of choosing a number that is not a multiple of 2 is P = 0.44

<h3 /><h3>How to find the probability?</h3>

We need to count the number of options for each digit.

  • For the first digit, we have 8 options {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
  • For the second digit, we have 9 options {0 ,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
  • For the third digit, we have 9 options {0 ,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}.

The total number of combinations is the product between the numbers of options:

C = 8*9*9 = 648

If we want our number to not be a multiple of 2 then it must end in a odd digit, the combinations that meet that condition are:

  • For the first digit, we have 8 options {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
  • For the second digit, we have 9 options {0 ,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
  • For the third digit, we have 4 options {1, 3,  5, 7}.

C = 8*9*4 = 288

Then the probability of selecting a 3 digit number that is not a multiple of 2 is:

P = 288/648 = 0.44
