Step-by-step explanation:
1. 1/4(x + 12)=2 - first isolate X'
- 12 -12
2. 1/4(x) = -10 - 1/4 since its a fraction, you'll have to subtract not divide
-1/4 - 1/4
3. x = -10.25
Andre did the first step correctly, but on the second step he just divided 1.4 by -10, instead of subtract 1/4 from both sides.
The possiblities that exist:
H, H, H
H, H, T
H, T, H <----
H, T, T
T, H, H
T, H, T
T, T, H
T, T, T
The answer is 1/8. Now the problem that you gave us isn't dependent upon anything, so more specifically the answer is 1/8 independent.
Nothing has actually happened therefore no odds have been decreased or increased.
Multiply all terms by 15
3x+3x= 10x+30
Combine like terms
6x=10x+30
Subtract 10x from both sides
-4x=30
Divide both sides by -4
x= -7.5
Final answer: -7.5
