12-(x-3)=8
what is the value of x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 7

Step-by-step explanation: First distribute the subtraction sign (negative one) to x and -3. Now we have 12 -1x + 3 = 8. Now combine 12 and 3 then subtract 15 from both sides to get -1x = -7. Now divide both sides by -1 to get x = 7.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12-(x-3) =8

12 -x +3 = 8

15 - x = 8

- 15.    -15

-x = -7

x = 7

Suppose there is a game of chance that you would like to play. It costs $3 to play one time. There are 100 $1 bills, 20 $5 bills, 3 $20 bills, and 1 $100 bill in a box. You may reach into a box without looking and select one bill. Is this a fair game? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

1. It is not a fair game.

2. The game is not fair because the probability of winning and the probability of losing are not equal.  In a fair game, the probability of winning is equal to the probability of losing.  In this game, the probability of losing is 0.81 or 81%, while the probability of winning is 19% (100 - 81).

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of playing the game one time = $3

Total number of bills in the box = 124 (100+20+3+1)

Chance of losing is represented by 100 of $1 bills = 100/124 = 0.81 or 81%

Chances of losing are represented by 20 of $5 bills, 3 of $20 bills, and 1 $100 bill = 0.19 or 19% (20/124 + 3/124 + 1/124).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

think of this as a system of equations where the colors just represent a variable like x or y

I'll just arbitrarily set colors to some variable letter so we have

purple = x

green =y

blue =z

red = a

yellow = b

so we can now rewrite the 4 known equations of the system :)

Eq. 1)  x+y = 13

Eq. 2) 2y+2z=18

Eq. 3) 2x+3y=31

Eq. 4) z + 4a = 12

Eq. 5) a * y = b

so solve the 1st eq for y   =>  y =13-x    then plug that into the 3rd eq and slove for x =>  2x + 3(13-x) =31

2x + 39 -3x = 31

2x-3x = 31 - 39

-x = -8

x=8

plug 8 into Eq. 1 for x and solve for y

8+y = 13

y=5

plug y into Eq 1 and solve for z

2(5) +2z = 18

10 +2z = 18

2z = 8

z = 4

plug z into E1 4 and solve for a

4 + 4a = 12

4a = 8

a = 2

plug a and y into Eq 5 and solve b

2 * 5 = b

10=b

go to the drawing and plug in each of the color values that we put as variable letters above and get an A+ on your homework..  :)

Raphael purchases a new DVD at M-Mart. He
pays 8% in tax on the cost of the DVD. If the tax
amount is $1.20, how much does Raphael
spend on the DVD, including tax?

Answers

Answer:

The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax is $16.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax on DVD = 8%

Amount of tax = $1.20

We need to find the amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax.

Let the cost of DVD = x

We can write the equation: [tex]8\%\:of\:x=1.20[/tex]

Because the tax amount is 8% of actual cost and is equal to 1.20

Now solving to find x:

[tex]8\%\:of\:x=1.20\\8\%\times\:x=1.20\\\frac{8}{100}\times x=1.20 \\x=1.20 \times \frac{100}{8}\\x= 15[/tex]

So, the cost of DVD = $15

Now, The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax = Cost of DVD + Tax

The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax = 15 + 1.2

                                                                                    = 16.2

So, The amount Raphael spend on DVD including tax is $16.2

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe both sides would be 10, and here is why:

I’m not sure if you’re learning this, but there is this thing called SOHCAHTOA. The SOH stands for Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse, CAH stands for Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse, and TOA stands for Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent. Now you figure out which one of these three to use based on the values you’re given and where they are on the triangle. So we’ve been given 45 degrees for one of the angles and we want to find the lenght that is Opposite of that angle, and we’re given the side length of the hypotenuse, so you would use Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse. How you would set that up is sin 45° = x/10rad2. You first find the value of sin 45°, which would give you about .71, so you’re equation would now be .71 = x/10rad2. You then cross multiply to find the value of X, which would give you about 10. And since this is a 45 45 90 triangle, both the legs are the same length. Hope that helps and please give brainliest if it did! :)

Jasmine sold half of her Barbie doll Collection
and then bought 9 dolls. She now has 13 dolls.
Barbie dolls did she begin with?
How many

Answers

Answer: 8 dolls.

Explanation: 13 - 9 = 4, 4 x 2 = 8.

Work the equation backwards... she has bought 9 extra dolls to add on the the half of her original amount. Without the extra 9 dolls (13 - 9), Jasmine has half of her original amount left (4) and so to find the original amount of dolls, think that if 4 is half the amount, what is 4 half of? 4 is half of 8 and so 8 is the original amounting dolls she had.

jenny has 68 1/2 pages of her left to read. How many pages will she have left after she reads 26 1/6 pages?

Answers

Answer:

42 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We subtract 26 1/6 from 68 1/2. We do this by finding the LCM of 6 and 2. That is 6. We multiply 1/2 by 3/3 to get 3/6. Now, we subtract. 68 - 26 is 42, and 3/6 - 1/6 is 2/6. Our answer is 42 2/6. That can be simplified to 42 1/3.

Jenny will have 42 whole 1/2 pages left after she reads 26 whole 1/6 pages if Jenny has a total of 68 whole 1/2 pages.

What is a fraction?

Fraction number consists of two parts one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

We have:

Jenny has  [tex]68\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  pages.

She reads [tex]26\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Let's suppose the remaining pages is x, then the value of x:

[tex]\rm x = 68\frac{1}{2}-26\frac{1}{6}\\\\\rm x = \frac{137}{2}-\frac{157}{6} \\\\\rm x = \frac{411-157}{6} \\\\\rm x = \frac{254}{6}[/tex]

[tex]\rm x = \frac{127}{3}[/tex]  or

[tex]\rm x = 42\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Thus, Jenny will have 42 whole 1/2 pages left after she reads 26 whole 1/6 pages if Jenny has a total of 68 whole 1/2 pages.

y - [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = m(x - [tex]x_{1}[/tex])

Slope of given line is 6

Slope of a perpendicular line is [tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
