Which describes the first step in solving the equation 4x - 7 = -15?

Mathematics

GalinKa [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Add 7 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

You would need to add 7 to both sides to cancel out the 7 on the right side of the equation to get x one step closer to being by itself.

Then you would get 4x = -8.

Next divide by 4 on both sides to get x by itself so do the inverse operation of what 4 was doing to x.

x = -2

the probability that luis will pass his statistics test is 0.49. Find the probability that he will fail his test?
DIA [1.3K]
Probability is the ratio of something occurring vs something not occuring

As there is a 100% chance he'll be taking the test,

0.49= 49% he'll be passing

100% = 49% + x

where x= chance he'll fail

therefore x= 100%-49%= 51% he'll fail!

A garden measuring 12 meters by 6 meters is going to have a walkway constructed all around the perimeter, increasing the total a
damaskus [11]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Original width = 6

New width 6+x+x

Orignal length 12

New length  12+x+x

A = l*w

160 = ( 6+2x) ( 12+2x)

Factor

160 = 2( 3+x) 2(6+x)

Divide each side by 4

40 = (3+x) (6+x)

FOIL

40 = 18+ 6x+3x+ x^2

40 = 18 +9x+x^2

Subtract 40 from each side

0 = x^2 +9x -22

Factor

0 = (x +11) (x-2)

Using the zero product property

x +11 =0   x-2 =0

x= -11   x=2

Since we cannot have a negative  sidewalk

x =2
