What value of x makes the equation 3(x-6)-8x= -2+5(2x+1) true

Mathematics

QveST [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x= −7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Distribute and combine like terms

3(x−6)−8x=−2+5(2x+1)

(3)(x)+(3)(−6)+−8x=−2+(5)(2x)+(5)(1)(Distribute)

3x+−18+−8x=−2+10x+5

(3x+−8x)+(−18)=(10x)+(−2+5)(Combine Like Terms)

−5x+−18=10x+3

−5x−18=10x+3

Step 2: Subtract 10x from both sides.

−5x−18−10x=10x+3−10x

−15x−18=3

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

−15x−18+18=3+18

−15x=21

Step 4: Divide both sides by -15.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

y= \frac{3}{2}x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope I first found the two points on the graph which were (0, -1) and (2, 2). Then I used rise over run to find the slope the point went up 3 units and to the right two units.

then to find the y intercept I found a pint of the graph where the line had passed through the y-intercept line on the graph which just so happened to be -1.

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of an event

  • The probability of choosing a black counter is 0.6
  • The probability that both counters are white is 0.16

<h3>(a) Probability of selecting two blacks</h3>

The probability is given as:

P(Black\ n\ Black)=0.36

Apply probability formula

P(Black) \times P(Black)=0.36

Express as squares

P(Black)^2=0.36

Take the square root of both sides

P(Black)=0.6

Hence, the probability of choosing a black counter is 0.6

<h3>(b) Probability of selecting two white counters</h3>

In (a), we have:

P(Black)=0.6

Using the complement rule, we have:

P(White) = 1 - P(Black)

So, we have:

P(White) = 1 -0.6

Evaluate

P(White) = 0.4

The probability that both counters are white is then calculated as:

P(White\ and\ White) = P(White) \times P(White)

So, we have:

P(White\ and\ White) =0.4 \times 0.4

P(White\ and\ White) =0.16

Hence, the probability that both counters are white is 0.16

You multiply the number of cars(bottom row) by 4 to get the number of tires(top row) so if there are 4 cars then there will be 16 tires. If you think about it, there are 4 tires on a car so you would multiply the number of cars by 4 to get the number of tires
