Answer:

5 is the value which makes the equation true .

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have provided an equation that is 9 ( 3x - 16 ) + 15 = 6x - 24 . And we are asked to write the steps to solve the equation with explanation  and to find the value of X .

Solution : -

$\longmapsto \quad \: 9(3x - 16) + 15 = 6x - 24$

Step 1 : Solving parenthesis on left side using distributive property which means multiplying 9 with 3x as well as -16 :

$\longmapsto \quad \:27x - \bold{144 }+ \bold{15 }= 6x - 24$

Step 2 : Solving like terms on left side that are -144 and 15 :

$\longmapsto \quad \:27x -129 = 6x - 24$

Step 3 : Adding 129 on both sides :

$\longmapsto \quad \:27x - \cancel{129} - \cancel{129} = 6x \bold{ - 24 } + \bold{129}$

Now on cancelling -129 with 129 on left side and solving the terms that are -24 and 129 on right side , We get :

$\longmapsto \quad \:27x = 6x + 105$

Step 4 : Subtracting with 6x on both sides :

$\longmapsto \quad \: \bold{27x} - \bold{6x} = \cancel{6x} +105 - \cancel{ 6x}$

On calculating further, We get :

$\longmapsto \quad \:21x = 105$

Step 5 : Now we are Dividing with 21 on both sides so that we can isolate the variable that is x :

$\longmapsto \quad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{21}x}{ \cancel{21}} = \dfrac{105}{ 21}$

Now , by cancelling 21 with 21 on left side , We get :

$\longmapsto \quad \:x = \cancel{\dfrac{105}{21}}$

Step 6 : Now our final step is to simplify the value of x that is 105/21 . We know that 21 × 5 is equal to 105 . So :

$\longmapsto \quad \: \purple{\underline{\boxed{\frak{ x = 5 }}}}$

Henceforth , value of x is 5

Verifying : -

Now we are verifying our answer by substituting value of x in the given equation . So ,

9 ( 3x - 16 ) + 15 = 6x - 24

9 [ 3 ( 5 ) - 16 ] + 15 = 6 ( 5 ) - 24

9 ( 15 - 16 ) + 15 = 30 - 24

9 ( -1 ) + 15 = 6

-9 + 15 = 6

6 = 6

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence , Verified .

Therefore, our value for x is correct that means it'll makes the equation true .

Find the altitude of an isosceles triangle with a vertex angle of 70° and a base of 246

Neporo4naja [7]

The base angles are both equal to (180-70) / 2 = 55 degrees

and 1/2 base = 123

so we have tan 55 = a / 123 where a = altitude
a = 123 * tan55 = 175.66

Suppose that you draw two cards from a deck. After drawing the first card, you do not put the first card back in the deck. What

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.05882.

Step-by-step explanation:

A deck of cards have 52 cards, 13 cards of each suit.

We are drawing two cards without replacement.

We need to find the probability of getting a diamond as the first card.

Favorable outcomes are 13 and total number of outcomes are 52.

Thus this probability is $\frac{13}{52} = \frac{1}{4}$ .

Now for the next draw we again want to pick a diamond card.

Favorable outcomes are 12 and total number of leftover cards are 51.

Thus this probability is $\frac{12}{51}$ .

Now the probability that both cards are diamonds is $\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{12}{51}$ = $\frac{3}{51} = \frac{1}{17}$ = 0.0588235 ≈ 0.05882

Find the indicated probability. The weekly salaries of teachers in one state are normally distributed with a mean of $490 and a

Alecsey [184]

Given Information:

Mean weekly salary = μ = $490

Standard deviation of weekly salary = σ = $45

Required Information:

P(X > $525) = ?

Answer:

P(X > $525) = 21.77%

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find out the probability that a randomly selected teacher earns more than $525 a week.

$P(X > 525) = 1 - P(X < 525)\\\\P(X > 525) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} )\\\\P(X > 525) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{525 - 490}{45} )\\\\P(X > 525) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{35}{45} )\\\\P(X > 525) = 1 - P(Z < 0.78)\\\\$

The z-score corresponding to 0.78 from the z-table is 0.7823

$P(X > 525) = 1 - 0.7823\\\\P(X > 525) = 0.2177\\\\P(X > 525) = 21.77 \%$

Therefore, there is 21.77% probability that a randomly selected teacher earns more than $525 a week.

How to use z-table?

Step 1:

In the z-table, find the two-digit number on the left side corresponding to your z-score. (e.g 0.7, 2.2, 1.5 etc.)

Step 2:

Then look up at the top of z-table to find the remaining decimal point in the range of 0.00 to 0.09. (e.g. if you are looking for 0.78 then go for 0.08 column)

Step 3:

Finally, find the corresponding probability from the z-table at the intersection of step 1 and step 2.
