Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be  'x'

x - 14 = 2 + 9x

Subtract x from both sides

- 14 = 2 + 9x - x

-14 = 2 + 8x

Subtract 2 from both sides

-14-2 = 8x

 -16 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8

-16/8 = x

x = -2

Will give 50 points!!! ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are a total of 4 colors, and there are 5 of each colors, the total marbles in the bad would be;

5 x 4 = 20

If a color is selected at random the probability would be

\frac{part}{whole}

our part is 5

our whole is 20

so the probability would be;

\frac{5}{20} or \frac{1}{4} when reduced

Hope this helps!

Which is an example of the associative property?
Advocard [28]
The first thing we are going to do to solve the problem is to define what associative property is:
 Associative property Property that is fulfilled if, given any three elements of a given set, it is verified that there is an operation that verifies equality
 An expression that meets the definition is:
 (x + 3) + 7 = x + (3 + 7)
 We observe that both members of equality are identical, but written in different ways.
 Answer:
 B) (x + 3) + 7 = x + (3 + 7)

Solve the system of equations using row operations. Write your answer in the form (x, y).
Sonja [21]

Answer:

(5, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = - 2 → (1)

3x - y = 19 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

9x - 3y = 57 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

(2x + 9x) + (3y - 3y) = (- 2 + 57), that is

11x = 55 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

2(5) + 3y = - 2

10 + 3y = - 2 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

3y = - 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = - 4

Solution is (5, - 4 )
