Answer:
x = 7 / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
5(2x - 9) + 3 = -7 ---------- subtract 3 from both sides
5(2x - 9) + 3 - 3 = -7 - 3
5(2x - 9) = -10 ------ divide both side by 5
2x - 9 = -2 ---------- add 9 to both sides
2x - 9 + 9 = -2 + 9
2x = 7
x = 7 / 2
For question 7, if we add all votes for tiger and eagle, we get
tiger = 14 + 13 + 8 + 5 = 40
eagle = 6 + 7 + 12 + 15 = 40
so choices A and B are wrong.
C is also wrong because fifth and sixth grade votes for eagle are 6 + 7 = 13 and the 5th and 6th grade votes for tiger are 14 + 13 = 27. clearly 5th + 6th like tiger more.
D is the answer for question 7
question 8
rolling a cube does not affect the other cube so it is all independent probability.
cube: 1 2 3 4 5 6
3 even numbers and 3 odd numbers
so probability of rolling an even number is
1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 = 1/2
multiplying by total number of rolls, she will get even numberss
300 * 1/2 = 150
about 150 time.
so half of the time, Cassie will roll and even number about half the number of rolls. never exactly since this is all probability. more likely for it to be around 150 times than exactly 150 time.
choice C is answer for question 8
Ratios that are equivalent to 3:11 are 6:22 and 9:33.
Hope this helps!
15x + 4 would be the algebraic expression
I'm sending you two screenshots of the explanation I hope this helps.
