1/3 ( x - 10) = -4 ???

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$x = - 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplify 1/3 ( x - 10) to x-10/3.

$\frac{x - 10}{3} = - 4$

2) Multiply both sides by 3.

$x - 10 = - 4 \times 3$

Simplify 4 × 3 to 12.

$x - 10 = - 12$

4) Add 10 to both sides.

$x = - 12 + 10$

5) Simplify -12 + 10 to -2.

$x = - 2$

So, therefor, the answer is, x = -2.

The y-intercept of g(x) in g(x) = 3x - 2 is (0,-2) (0,0) (2/3,0)

Dennis_Churaev [7]

For any y-intercept, the x-coordinate is zero. This is something to bear in mind to start with.

Now to find the y-intercept, find g(0) = -2.

Therefore the answer is (0,-2)

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the probability of him pulling out a book.

There are 11 objects in total, and there are 4 books.

So, the probability of pulling out a book is $\frac{4}{11}$

Next, find the probability of him pulling out a DVD after.

Since a book was taken out, there are only 10 objects left. There are 5 DVDs.

So, the probability of pulling out a DVD is $\frac{5}{10}$ , or simplified to $\frac{1}{2}$

To find the probability that this happens in order, multiply the probabilities:

$\frac{4}{11}$ x $\frac{1}{2}$

= $\frac{2}{11}$

So, the probability is $\frac{2}{11}$

Ive been having this question for a while "what do you use first PEMDAS or Order of Operations". Well you might say it doesn't m

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Order of Operations was aught at a younger age for those just grasping the idea of multiplication and division. Exposing PEMDAS at a young age would confuse them too much, hence the order of operation groups, addition/subtraction and multiplication/division. So for the second example problem, PEMDAS would be correct because it does involve you to use parentheses as well as exponents to solve for. Very easy to mix up between order of operations and PEMDAS, but just look at it as if Order of operations is a beginner level of PEMDAS.
