Answer:
Let x represent the number from the sentence.
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x) + 2(1/x) = 20/3
2x + 2/x = 20/3
multiply both sides of the equation by 3x
6x + 6 = 20x
6x - 20x + 6 = 0
6x - 18x - 2x + 6 = 0
6x(x-3 -2(x-3) = 0
(6x-2 = 0 or x-3 = 0
6x = 2 or x = 3
x = 2/6
x = 1/3
Since x represented the number
Therefore x = 1/3 or 3
ED = x - 5 <em>given</em>
DG = 4x - 38 <em>given</em>
ED = DG <em>definition of midpoint</em>
x - 5 = 4x - 38 <em>substitution</em>
-5 = 3x - 38 <em>subtraction property of equality (subtracted x from both sides)</em>
33 = 3x <em>addition property of equality (added 38 to both sides)</em>
11 = x <em>division property of equality (divided 3 from both sides)</em>
ED = x - 5 → ED = 11 - 5 → ED = 6 <em>substitution</em>
since ED = DG, then DG = 6 <em>transitive property</em>
ED + DG = EG <em>segment addition property</em>
6 + 6 = EG <em>substitution</em>
12 = EG <em>simplified like terms</em>
Answer: 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 20 ballots, 8 have drawn a car the rest are white.
Find the probability to extract at least one ballot with the drawing of a car if not replaced:
1. If a ballot is taken out:
8 have drawn a car: thus we have 8/20 = 2/5
2. If two ballots are removed, probability of extracting 1 ballot with drawing of car is 8/20 leaving 7 out of 19 remaining. The 7/19 is the probability of drawing out a second ballot with the drawing of a car. Thus we have
8/20 * 7/19 = 56/380 = 14/95
3. If three ballots are removed, probability of extracting 1 ballot with drawing of car is 8/20 leaving 7 out of 19 remaining. The 7/19 is the probability of drawing out a second ballot with the drawing of a car leaving 6 out of 18 remaining. The 6/18 is the probability of drawing out a third ballot with the drawing of a car.
8/20 * 7/19 * 6/18 = 42/855
Answer:
y = -2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y2 - y1/ x2 - x1
7 - (-5) / -2 - 4
-2
The slope is -2.
To find the y-intercept, you need to plug the coordinates into the equation.
y = -2x + b
7 = -2(-2) + b
7 = 4 + b
3 = b
y = -2x + 3
