The answer is .35 not 3.5
Well lets solve for both.
6 + 2 + 4x
Combine like terms.
8 + 4x
Now solve the other one.
6 - (2 - 4x)
Distribute.
6 - 2 + 4x
Combine like terms.
4 + 4x.
These equations are not equivalent because instead of adding two, like in the first one, the second problem is subtracting. So you get 8 + 4x and 4 + 4x. I hope this helps love! :)
-2x - 3x = -5x
8 - 4 = 4
-5x + 4
The probability is 3/6 or 0.5 or 1/2.
17.6 because you do the working out backwards :)
