Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Like solving all Algebra equations, it is very important to make sure that the variables (In this case x) are on one side and the numbers are on the other side.

85-3x=40

First, let's subtract 40 on both sides

45-3x=0

Add 3x to both sides

45=3x

Let's divide both side by 3

And we get...

x=15

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf If\:\: \overline{NO} \parallel \overline{KJ}\:\:then\:\: \triangle LNO \sim\triangle LKJ$

Therefore:

$\implies \sf \overline{LN} : \overline{LO} = \overline{LK} : \overline{LJ}$

$\implies (x-3):(x-4)=(x-3)+(x+2):(x-4)+x$

$\implies \dfrac{x-3}{x-4}=\dfrac{2x-1}{2x-4}$

$\implies (x-3)(2x-4)=(2x-1)(x-4)$

$\implies 2x^2-10x+12=2x^2-9x+4$

$\implies -10x+12=-9x+4$

$\implies 12=x+4$

$\implies x=8$

An airline reports that 85% of its flights arrive on time. To find the probability that its next four flights into LaGuardia Air

olga55 [171]

Answer:

The answer is "no".

Step-by-step explanation:

No, because the probability besides simultaneous flights to arrive on time are not self-sufficient for every flight (when the first flight was late, therefore the probabilities during the next flight were significantly greater), because then the standard multiplication principle would be used for explanatory variables.
