12+8+8=28
8 students are wearing a blue shirt so the probability is 8/28
Answer:
x = 1.19258 and x = −4.19258
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is :

Keep x terms on the left and move the constant to the right side by adding it on both sides.

Take half of the x term and square it.

then add the result to both sides

So,
x = 1.19258 and x = −4.19258
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
cement by 5 Kg
Step-by-step explanation:
add the parts of the ratio, 5 + 4 + 1 = 10 parts
Divide the quantity of concrete by 10 to find the value of one part of the ratio.
110Kg ÷ 10 = 11Kg ← value of 1 part of ratio , thus
5 parts = 5 × 11Kg = 55Kg ← cement required
4 parts = 4 × 11Kg = 44Kg ← sand required
1 part = 11Kg ← gravel required
He requires 55Kg of concrete but only has 50Kg.
He requires 44Kg of sand and has 55Kg
He requires 11Kg of gravel and has 15Kg
Thus he is 5Kg short of cement.
Answer:
x = -1.5
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Alg</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
0.2x + 1 = 1.6x + 3.1
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Subtract 0.2x on both sides: 1 = 1.4x + 3.1
- Subtract 3.1 on both sides: -2.1 = 1.4x
- Divide both sides by 1.4: -1.5 = x
- Rewrite: x = -1.5
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitution: 0.2(-1.5) + 1 = 1.6(-1.5) + 3.1
- Multiply: -0.3 + 1 = -2.4 + 3.1
- Add: 0.7 = 0.7
