Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. x = -3.6

Add 1 on both sides.

18x = 23x + 18

Subtract 23x on both sides.

Combine like terms.

Divide the answer.

-5x = 18

x = -3.6

2. x = 11/3 (2.66666...)

Add 5 on both sides.

6x = 3x + 11

Subtract 3x on both sides.

Combine like terms.

Divide the answer.

3x = 11

x = 11/3

3. x = 23

Subtract 12 on both sides.

5x = 6x - 23

Subtract 6x on both sides.

Combine like terms.

Divide the answer.

-x = -23

x=23

(that's all.)

Lara tossed a fair coin 3 times. What is the probability of getting heads in the first two trials? 1 over 8 2 over 8 3 over 8 4

Dovator [93]

4/8 is equal to 1/2. While this is true of one coin toss, it is not a 50% chance if you toss the coin twice. In tossing the coin twice you have the options of: heads, tails, heads, tails (One head and one tail per coin). Since there are four options, it is a 25% chance you will get heads twice in a row. 25% equals 1/4 which equals 2/8.

Write the difference in factored form. (24x4 - 15x2 + 6x) - (10x4 + 5x2 - 4x)

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The factored difference is: $2x(7x^3 - 10x + 5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference in non factored form:

To find the difference in non-factored form, we subtract the common terms. So

$24x^4 - 15x^2 + 6x - (10x^4 + 5x^2 - 4x) = 24x^4 - 10x^4 - 15x^2 - 5x^2 + 6x + 4x = 14x^4 - 20x^2 + 10x$

Greatest common factor:

Of the exponents: Between $x^4, x^2$ and $x$ , it is the one with the lowest exponent, so x.

Between 14, 20 and 10:

14 - 20 - 10|2

7 - 10 - 5

So 2

The gcf is 2x, which means that the factored expression is:

$2x(\frac{14x^4}{2x} - \frac{20x^2}{2x} + \frac{10x}{2x}) = 2x(7x^3 - 10x + 5)$

The factored difference is: $2x(7x^3 - 10x + 5)$

The jars of peanut butter that I buy cost $7.20 each and normally contain 500 grams. At present, however, each jar contains an e

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The jars of peanut butter that I buy cost $7.20 each and normally contain 500 grams.

At present, however, each jar contains an extra 20% free.

And additionally, the supermarket has a "buy 3 jars get another one free''.

Question asked:

By how much is the cost per 100 grams of peanut butter less than it normally is if I take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today?

Solution:

Cost of a jars of peanut = $7.20

Normally, weight of peanut butter in one packet = 500 gram

At supermarket offer, each jar contains an extra 20% free, means a packet of peanut butter contains = 500 + 20% of 500 $=500+500\times \frac{20}{100} =500+100=600\ gram$

And extra benefit = buy 3 jars get another one free, means we will get 4 jars by just giving price of only 3 jars.

That means, total weight of peanut butter you are getting by giving 3 packet's price = Each jar weigh $\times$ number of jars

= 600 $\times$ 4 = 2400 gram

Cost of each packet will be same as previously as during the offer; $7.20

Cost of 3 packet's peanut (2400 gram) = $7.20\times3=\$21.6$

Now, we will calculate cost per 100 grams of peanut butter :

During offer:

Cost of 2400 grams of peanut butter = $21.6

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{21.6}{2400}$

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{21.6}{2400}\times100=\frac{2160}{2400} =\$0.9$

Normal day:

Cost of 500 grams of peanut butter = $7.20

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{7.20}{500}$

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = $\frac{7.20}{500}\times100=\frac{720}{500} =\$1.44$

We found that cost of 100 gram of peanut butter in normal day is $1.44 while cost of 100 gram of peanut butter during offer is $0.9 means cost per 100 gram during offer is ($1.44 - $0.9 = )$0.54 less than cost during normal day.

Conclusion:

Therefore, cost per 100 grams of peanut butter is $0.54 less than it is normally if you take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today.
