3 ( 3x + 6 + x ) = 1
Step 1, apply distributive method.
9x + 18 + 3x = 1
Step 2, simplify the following
12x + 18 = 1
Step 3, Change side
12x = -17
Final answer
x = -17/12
<em>The </em><u><em>error/mistake was in step 2</em></u><em> where [ 9x +3x = 12x ]</em>
<em />
<u><em>Recheck the answer</em></u>
3 ( 3x + 6 + x ) = 1
3 ( 3(-17/12) + 6 + -17/12 ) = 1
1 = 1
Hence proved our solution is correct.
Answer:
1/20 or 0.05
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The probability of getting yellow</u>:
<u>The probability of getting a lion rubber band</u>:
<u>The probability of getting two events (getting yellow, getting a lion) are independent, so we have to multiply the two probabilities to get</u>:
- (1/5) × (1/4)
- 1/20 or 0.05
Answer:
(a)

(b)


Step-by-step explanation:
See attachment for initial punnet square
Solving (a): Complete the square
Initially, we have:

To complete the square, we simply write the letter at the column and the letter at the row in each cell;
So, we have:

Solving (b): Percentage of each
From the question, we understand that W are dominant to w.
So:


From (a) above



So, the percentage of each is:




--- Complement rule


Answer:
X=5
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to factor the left side of the equation
(X-5)(x-5)=0
Set factors that will equal to 0
X-5=0
X=5 is the answer
