The new model is 11/40 of an inch thinner than the old model.
In order to do this, we need to subtract the new model from the old model.
7/8 - 3/5
In order to complete this, we will need common denominators.
35/40 - 24/40
Then simply complete the operation.
11/40
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to isolate X.
3x - 7 = x + 13
subtract 13
3x - 7 - 13 = x
combine like terms
3x - 20 = x
subtract 3x
- 20 = x - 3x
Combine like terms
- 20 = - 2x
Divide by -2
10 = x
Answer:
Expected number of books = 1.0
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected number of books, E(x) = ∑xp(x)
∑ = Summation
x = books
p(x) = probability of purchasing a book
E(x) = (0*0.4) + (1*0.2) + (2*0.4)
E(x) = 0 + 0.2 + 0.8 = 1.0
Answer:
Option A) Bethany is correct because consecutive odd integers will each have a difference of two
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of 3 consecutive odd integers is 91. Let the first odd integer is x. The next odd integer will be obtained by adding 2 in x i.e. (x + 2). The third odd integer will be obtained by adding 2 in the second odd integer i.e. (x + 2) + 2 = x + 4
So, the 3 odd integers will be:
x , (x+2) and (x+4)
Their sum is given to be 91. So we can write:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 91
Hence, we can conclude that: Bethany is correct because consecutive odd integers will each have a difference of two.
Other options are not correct because consecutive odd integers always increase by 2. For example, the next odd integer after 1 is 3, which is obtained by adding two, similarly the next odd will be 5 and so on.
