Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If A, B and C lies on a straight line in order, then;

AB+BC = AC

x+12+2x-4 = 26

x+2x+12-4 =26

3x+8 = 26

3x = 26-8

3x = 18

x = 18/3

x = 6

Hence the value of x is 6

Is shipping box is a shape of a cube. Each side measures 3c^6d^2 inches. Express the volume of a cube has a monomial.
liubo4ka [24]
Length of each side of cube is = 3c^6d^2

SO the volume of cube = (Side)^3
                                      = (3c^6d^2)^3
                                      = 27 * (c^6)^3(d^2)^3
                                      = 27c^{18}d^6

SO the volume of cube is 27c^{18}d^6

A population of voters contains 40% republicans and 60% democrats. it is reported that30% of the republicans and 70% of the demo
Blizzard [7]

To get the probability of selecting a person who is a democrat and is favour to the issue, let us first calculate for the portions in each party who is favour on the issue.

 

p (rep & favour) = 0.4 * 0.3 = 0.12

 

p (dem & favour) = 0.6 * 0.7 = 0.42

 

Therefore the total portions who are favour is:

p (favour) = 0.12 + 0.42 = 0.54

 

Hence the probability is:

P (dem & favour) = 0.42 / 0.54 = 0.7778 = 0.78

 

Therefore there is about 78% probability that the person selected who is favour to the issue is a democrat.
