Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this word problem, we need to convert it into an equation. Let's first dissect the problem:
"The sum of six times a number and 1" -- since "sum" means addition, and "6 times" means 6 multiplied by some number, we can write this as: 6x + 1, where x stands for the unknown number
"is equal to five times the number" -- since "equals" means "=" and five times the number means 5x, where x stands for that same unknown number, we can write as: = 5x
Put it all together and we have
6x + 1 = 5x
Now we can solve our equation.
First, we need to get all of the like terms on each side of the equal sign. To do this, we will first subtract 1 from both sides:
6x + 1 - 1 = 5x - 1, which gives us 6x = 5x - 1
Next, we will subtract 5x from both sides:
6x - 5x = 5x - 5x - 1, giving us x = -1
-1 is the number
hope this helps
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
6 x + 1 = 5 x
6 x - 5 x + 1 = 5 x - 5x
x +1 =0
x+1-1=-1
x=-1
Consider the sample space given below.
A die is a cube with six sides on which each side contains one to six dots. Suppose a blue die and a gray die are rolled together, and the numbers of dots that occur face up on each are recorded. The possible outcomes of the sample space S are listed as follows, where in each case the die on the left is blue and the one on the right is gray.
S= {11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66}
Write the following event as a set.
The event that the numbers showing face up are the same.
E = ....................?
Compute the probability of E.
Answer:
1 / 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur. The probability for an event to occur is between 0 and 1.
The Probability of an event occurring is the ratio of the number of event in the sample space to the total number of possible outcomes.
The number of possible outcomes [n(S)] from rolling a blue die and a gray die is 36.
n(S) = 36
Let E be an event that the numbers showing face up are the same.
E = {11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66}, n(E) = 6
The probability of E = P(E) = number event / number of possible outcomes =
P(E) = n(E) / n(S) = 6 / 36 = 1 / 6
Given: 33 + 6p = 2(p-1) - 3p

A production process is known to produce a particular item in such a way that 5 percent of these are defective. If two items are randomly selected as they come off the production line, what is the probability that both are defective (assuming that they are independent)
Answer:
0.0025 = 0.25% probability that both are defective
Step-by-step explanation:
For each item, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are defective, or they are not. Items are independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
5 percent of these are defective.
This means that [tex]p = 0.05[/tex]
If two items are randomly selected as they come off the production line, what is the probability that both are defective
This is P(X = 2) when n = 2. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.05)^{2}.(0.95)^{0} = 0.0025[/tex]
0.0025 = 0.25% probability that both are defective
Elizabeth raises chickens and sells the eggs to a local supermarket. The supermarket pays $0.85 for every dozen eggs. How much money could Elizabeth expect to earn in a week if her chickens lay, on average, 51 dozen eggs per week?
Answer:
On average, Elizabeth will earn $43.35 per week if her chickens lay 51 dozen per week.
Step-by-step explanation:
0.85x
x represents how many dozens
0.85(51) = 43.35
How would I prove KM = HM?
Given that GJ is the perp bisector of HK
Answer: See step by step
Step-by-step explanation:
Since GJ is the perpendicular bisector of HK it bisects HK and make J the midpoint of HK. Since J is the midpoint we can construct a congruence statement of KJ≅JH. Then we know in the diagram Angle MJK= 90°, becuase it form a ⊥ line so it is 90° that also means MHJ forms a 90 ° angles becuase they also form a ⊥ line. So that means KJM≅HJM because of transitive property(a=b, b=c, then a=c). Both triangles also include side MJ, so using the reflexitive property( a=a),They are congruent. Since we proved they have a two congruent sides, with a included angle in between them we can use the SAS theorem (Side-Angle-Side) to prove they are congruent. So ΔKMJ≅ΔHMJ Then KM=HM by CPCTC.
A statistics student has a mean score of 92 in the first 3 tests. Suppose there are a total of 4 tests and all of them have equal weight. You can also assume that there is no extra credit in the last test. What is the best possible final average this student can get
Answer:
The best possible final average this student can get is 94.
Step-by-step explanation:
The average score is given by the sum of the scores of all tests divided by the number of tests.
In this question:
First three tests: Mean score of 92, so total score of 92*3 = 276
Best possible score, with 4 tests:
In the first three, the total is 276. The best possible score is with a grade of 100 in the fourth test. The score will be:
[tex]M = \frac{276+100}{4} = \frac{376}{4} = 94[/tex]
The best possible final average this student can get is 94.

PLZ HELP HURRY
1) All cars are blue. (2) All pigs have wings. Therefore, (3) All buses have three wheels. Question 2 options: Passes the true premises test and passes the proper form test. Passes the true premises test and fails the proper form test. Fails the true premises test and passes the proper form test. Fails the true premises test and fails the proper form test. None of the above.
Answer:
Fails the true premises test and fails the proper form test
Explanation:
A valid argument must pass the true premises test and the proper form test.
True premises test checks to see if what the premises is saying is true about the world, example- pigs do not have wings and so the argument fails the true premises test. Proper form test assumes the premises is true and then checks to see if a valid conclusion was drawn based on the premises(even though it might fail the true premises test and may not be true about the world)

An individual is presented with three different glasses of cola, labeled C, D, and P. He is asked to taste all three and then list them in order of preference. Suppose the same cola has actually been put into all three glasses. What is the probability that C is ranked first and D is ranked last?
Answer and explanation:
Probability = number of favorable outcomes/ total number of outcomes
Since all glasses labelled C, D, and P are all same Cola
Probability that C is ranked first = 1/3
Probability that D is ranked last = 1/3

Answer:
[tex](x-5)-(x-1)=-4[/tex]
[tex]=2x-4[/tex]
[tex](x-5)+(x+1)=-6[/tex]
[tex](x-5)+(x-1)=2x-6[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In each of the expressions we first need to open the brackets and change the sign according to the sign preceding the bracket. After that we perform simple arithmetic to find the result.
[tex](x-5)-(x-1)=x-5-x+1[/tex]
[tex]=-4[/tex]
[tex](x-5)+(x+1)=x-5+x+1[/tex]
[tex]=2x-4[/tex]
[tex](x-5)-(x+1)=x-5-x-1[/tex]
[tex]=-6[/tex]
[tex](x-5)+(x-1)=x-5+x-1[/tex]
[tex]=2x-6[/tex]
The answers are
[tex](x-5)-(x-1)=-4[/tex]
[tex](x-5)+(x+1)=2x-4[/tex]
[tex](x-5)+(x+1)=-6[/tex]

There are 600 members of a sports club.
The ratio of men to women is 2:3
1/4 of the men are under 30 years old
20% of the women are under 30 years old
HOW MANY MEMBERS ARE OVER 30?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
468
Step-by-step explanation:
Men:
(3/4)(2/5)(600) = (6/20)(600) = 6(30) = 180 men over 30
Women:
(4/5)(3/5)(600) = (12/25)(600) = 48(6) = 288 women over 30
The total number of members over 30 is ...
180 +288 = 468 . . . members over 30

A man borrowed $3500 from a bank for 6 months. The bank collected 7-1/2% simple interest on the date of maturity. How much did the man pay for use of the money and what was the amount he repaid the bank on the due date of the note
Answer:
$3762.50
Step-by-step explanation:
From the problem, we can see our initial loan is 3500. On the return date, the interest of the loan is collected 7.5%. To find out how much the man paid for the loan, we need to find out how much he paid in interest, which is the percentage of the interest converted to a decimal x the initial loan. We get $262.5, and then we need to pay back the interest plus the initial loan we borrowed from the bank, so we need to add those together to get:
$3762.50
