4x + 20 = - 71 - ( 3x )

4x + 20 = - 3x - 71

Subtract sides minus 20

4x + 20 - 20 = - 3x - 71 - 20

4x = - 3x - 91

Add sides 3x

4x + 3x = - 3x + 3x - 91

7x = - 91

Divide sides by 7

7x / 7 = - 91 / 7

Simplification

x = - 13

Thus the number is ( - 13 ) .

Drupady [299]

Answer:

P(B)=0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of 1000 Voters, 30% favor Jones.

Event S=Favors Jones on First Trial

Event B=S occurs on Second Trial

P(S)=0.30

P(S')=1-0.30=0.70

Event B could occur in two ways

  1. The first two trials are a success
  2. The first trial is a failure and the second trial is a success.

Therefore,

P(B)=P(SS)+P(S'S)

=(0.3X0.3)+(0.7X0.3)

=0.09+0.21

=0.3

Therefore, the probability of event B(that event S occurs on the second trial), P(B)=0.30.
