Answer:
x = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
7x + 156 = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
156 + 7x + -9x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 7x + -9x = -2x
156 + -2x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
156 + -2x = 184 + 0
156 + -2x = 184
Add '-156' to each side of the equation.
156 + -156 + -2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 156 + -156 = 0
0 + -2x = 184 + -156
-2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 184 + -156 = 28
-2x = 28
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -14
Simplifying
x = -14
I think its true, since perimeter is the diatance around. I would say mines correct, but you could try. I hope that helped atleast a little. :)
Answer: 0.421
Step-by-step explanation:
Heavy smoker = 20%
Light smoker = 30%
Non smokers = 50%
We can assume that the probability that a non-smoker is going to die in the next 5 years be y.
Since light smokers were twice as likely as nonsmokers to die during the five-year study, the probability will be:
= 2 × y = 2y
Probability for the Heavy smokers will be:= 2 × 2y = 4y
The expected number of people that will die for each in the next 5 years will be:
Non smoker:
= 50% × y
= 0.5 × y
= 0.5y
Light smoker:
= 30% × 2y
= 0.3 × 2y.
= 0.6y
Heavy smoker:
= 20% × 4y.
= 0.2 × 4y
= 0.8y
Total = 0.5y + 0.6y + 0.8y = 1.9y
The probability that the participant was a heavy smoker will be:
= 0.8y/1.9y
= 0.421
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
all angles in an equilateral triangle equal 60 because 180 ÷ 3 = 60
Answer: x < 4
Step-by-step explanation: When solving the inequality 3x - 3 < 9, just like an equation our first step is to isolate the <em>x</em> term which is 3x by adding 3 to both sides of the inequality.
On the left, -3 + 3 cancels and we have 3x.
Make sure to bring down the < sign.
On the right, 9 + 3 simplifies to 12.
So we have 3x < 12.
Now, divide both sides of the inequality by 3 to isolate <em>x</em>.
When we do that we get <em>x < 4</em>
So our answer is x < 4.
