Answer:
(2,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
3 + 5x = 20 + 7x
First subtract 20 to both sides
-17 + 5x = 7x
Next subtract 5x to both sides (we are trying to get x all in one side)
-17 = 2x
Divide 2 to isolate the x
-17/2 = x or -8.5 = x
Answer:
The new mean is 77cm
Step-by-step explanation:
If the mean height of the 30 children in a room is 76 cm, then the sum of their ages is

If James with height 107cm joins them, then the total number of children now becomes 30+1=31 and the total height becomes: 2280cm+107cm=2387cm
The new mean now becomes:

Determine first the difference between the incorrectly measured board and the correct one. The subtraction would result to 1.2 ft. The percent error is calculated by dividing this value by the correct value and then multiply by 100%. (1.2 ft / 12 ft) x 100% = 100%. Thus, the percent error is 10%.
This is a system where (f-g)(x) is wanted.
(16x-30)-(14x-6) .... 2x-24 *be careful with signs and parenthesis placement.
Now set 2x-24 = 0 and so x = 12
