Answer: 0.5
1) convert to I proper fraction
2) divide the fraction
Ii.First ,expand: 5(x-2)=32
5x-10=32
bring 10 to the other side (add it to 32)
5x=42
divide both sides by 5 to get x
x=42/5
x=8.4
iii.Expand 5+2(x+3)=21
5+2x+6=21
bring 5 and 6 to the other side
2x=21-5-6
2x=10 divide both sides by 2
x=5
Answer:
The probability of seeing a person wearing black shoes before seeing a person wearing white ones = 60%
Step-by-step explanation:
People watched walking down the street = 100%
People wearing black shoes = 1/2 = 50%
People wearing white shoes = 1/3 = 33.33%
People wearing red shoes = 1/6 = 16.67%
Probability of black shoes to white shoes = percentage of persons wearing black shoes/sum of the percentages of people wearing black and white shoes)
= 50% : 33.33%
= 60% (50%/83.33%)
When expressed in ratio terms, it means that you will see 1.5 (50%/33.33% or 1.5 : 1) persons wearing black shoes before you see a person wearing white shoes.
Written in standard form, y decreased by 25 = 10 is y - 25 = 10
Now let's solve:
y - 25 = 10
y = 10 + 25
y = 35
to check:
35 - 25 = 10
so, y equals 35
