Simplifying
3x + 4 = 7 + -2x

Reorder the terms:
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x

Solving
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2x' to each side of the equation.
4 + 3x + 2x = 7 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: 3x + 2x = 5x
4 + 5x = 7 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0
4 + 5x = 7 + 0
4 + 5x = 7

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + 5x = 7 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 5x = 7 + -4
5x = 7 + -4

Combine like terms: 7 + -4 = 3
5x = 3

Divide each side by '5'.
x = 0.6

Answer: x = 0.6

shusha [124]

Answer:

0.6535

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that during a one-hour period twenty-five customers buy gasoline at this station.

Let X be the no of persons out of these 25 who pay by cash.

X has two outcomes and each trial is independent of other.

Hence X is binomial (n=25, p=0.40)

Required probability

= P(X\geq 10)\\=P(10)+P(11)+...+P(25)\\=\Sigma_{10}^{25}  25Cr (0.4)^r (1-0.4)^{25-r}

=0.6535

3.2 geometry worksheet
alekssr [168]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

5. 21x + 4 = 22x - 2 (corresponding angles)

Collect like terms

21x - 22x = -4 - 2

-x = -6

divide both sides by -1

x = 6

6. (x + 72) + (x + 132) = 180 (linear pair)

x + 72 + x + 132 = 180

Add like terms

2x + 204 = 180

2x = 180 - 204

2x = -24

x = -12

7. 90 = 22x + 2 (vertical angles)

90 - 2 = 22x

88 = 22x

Divide both sides by 22

4 = x

x = 4

8. 12x + 10 = 13x + 3 (vertical angles)

Collect like terms

12x - 13x = -10 + 3

-x = -7

Divide both sides by -1

x = 7

9. 17x = 16x + 5 (alternate exterior angles)

17x - 16x = 5

x = 5

✔️17x

Plug in the value of x

17(5) = 85°

10. 21x - 6 = 20x (corresponding angles)

Add like terms

21x - 20x = 6

x = 6

✔️20x

20(6) = 120°
