At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.
Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals
Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.
x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals
Derek made 7 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x
John made 5 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)
Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end
(A) 7x = 5(x+5)
(B) Solve for x
7x = 5x + 25
Subtract 5x from both sides
2x = 25
Divide by 2
x = 12.5
(C) check your solution
we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25
7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25
87.5 = 62.5+ 25
87.5 = 87.5
(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars
Answer:
1 / 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of white marbles = 5
Number of blue marbles = 3
Number of green marbles = 7
Required is the approximate probability of drawing 2 green marbles, Note that drawing is done without replacement :
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes = sum of all marbles = (5 + 3 + 7) = 15 marbles
First draw:
P(Green) = 7 / 15
Second draw:
Required outcome = 7 - 1 = 6
Possible outcomes = 15 - 1 = 14
P(green) = 6 / 14
Probability of drawing out two green marbles :
(7/15 * 6/14) = 42 / 210 = 1 / 5

Multiply (x/6) by 6 to get common denominators and then you can simplify equation to 6x=15, divide each side by 6 answer is x=2.5 or 5/2
