15/5 is 3
So then you change the equation to be 12=15z-3 ( don’t forgot the negative sign)
Move the constant to the right side and change the sign
-15z= -3 -12
-3-12 is -15
Divide -15z= -15
Your final answer will be z= 1
The probability of drawing a white marble =

∴ the probability of drawing a white marble = ³/₁₄
Hey there!
1. 5(s-2) This is because s-2 is the length of each side, and there are 5 sides in a pentagon all of that length, so multiplying it by 5 like this shows its perimeter.
2. 5s-10 This can be found by distributing the first equation, multiplying both s and -2 by 5.
3. (s-2) + (s-2) + (s-2) + (s-2) + (s-2) Each grouping in the parenthesis represents each of the 5 sides, so adding them all together will get you the perimeter.
4. 5(s) + 5(-2) This one is most like the first one, except it's a little more spread out. Multiply the term s by the 5 sides in one grouping, and the integer -2 by 5 in the other.
Hope this helps!
14gallons=380miles
14/380=<span>0.03684210526gallons/mile
</span>
418*<span>0.03684210526=15.4gallons
</span>
or you could cross multiply
14gallons=380miles
x gallons=418miles

380x=5852
divide both sides by 380
x=15.4 gallons
