Answer: x=34
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You subtract 2x from 5x on the other side to get rid of the 2x leaving you with 3x.
2. Then you add 5 to 97 to get rid of the -5, giving you 102 on the opposite side.
3. divide 102 by 3x giving you 34.
5x-5=2x+97
-2x -2x
3x-5=97 <u><em>X=102</em></u>
+5 +5
3x=102
x/3 102/3
Answer:
multiply by 12: r = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the multiplication property of equality. It tells you that multiplying both sides of an equation by the same value does not change the values of any of the variables. Here we can multiply by 12 and we get ...
r(12/12) = 1.5(12)
Now, the properties of the identity element for multiplication come into play. When we multiply r by 12/12=1, we do not change the value of r, so we can simplify this to ...
r = 18
_____
We chose to multiply by 12 precisely because 12/12 = 1, and the result on the left side of the equation is r.
For any birth we have only two possible outcomes either boy or girl. So the chance of getting boy or girl on birth same which is 1/2.
The probability of getting baby boy or baby girl on any birth is
P(Boy) = P(Girl) = 0.5
If a couple has six children then probability that all are boys is
P( all six are boy) = (0.5)^6
= 0.015
The probability that all six are boy is 0.015
