Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Distribute

-2(x - 3) + 4x = -(-x + 1)

-2x + 6 + 4x = x - 1

Step 2: Combine like terms

-2x + 6 + 4x = x - 1

2x + 6 = x - 1

Step 3: Subtract x from both sides

2x + 6 - x = x - 1 - x

x + 6 = -1

Step 4: Subtract 6 from both sides

x + 6 - 6 = -1 - 6

x = -7

Answer: x = -7

marin [14]

Answer:

Robbie pay in twelve months $1080 .

$92.47 more Robbie pay and 9.36 %(Approx) Robbie pay.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Robbie Morse has a $47,500 insurance policy.

The annual premium is $987.53.

Robbie pays $90.00 monthly.

First find out the Robbie pay in twelve months .

Robbie pay in twelve months = 12 × 90

= $ 1080

Second find out how much more does Robbie pay .

Robbie pay extra = Robbie pay in twelve months - annual premium

= $ 1080 - $987.53

= $92.47

Therefore the $92.47 more Robbie pay .

Third find out the what percentage does Robbie pay .

Formula

$Percentage = \frac{Robbies\ pay\ more\times 100}{annual\ premium}$

Robbies pay more = $92.47

Annual premium = $987.53

Put in the above

$Percentage = \frac{92.47\times 100}{987.53}$

$Percentage = \frac{9247}{987.53}$

Percentage = 9.36 % (Approx)

9.36 %(Approx) Robbie pay.

I need to increase the number of customers by 20% daily, I talk to an average of 8 customers per hour during an 8 hour shift so

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Before we figure out how many customers you will need to talk per day to reach your goal, let's calculate what is 20% of how many customers you normally talk to a day.

current no. = 8

goal = 8 + 20%

20% = 8 x 0.20

(a percent is really just a fraction with the percent number over 100)

20% = 1.60

goal = 8 + 1.60

goal = 9.60

However, there is no such thing as .60 of a person so we will have to round up. You will need to talk to 10 customers per day.

Marley drives to work every day and passes two independently operated traffic lights. The probability that both lights are red i

madam [21]

Let event A be the first light being red.
Let event B be the second light being red.

P(A) = 0.48
P(A & B) = P(A) * P(B) = 0.35

P(B) = 0.35 / P(A)
P(B) = 0.35 / 0.48
P(B) = 0.73

Since the lights are independent, P(B|A) = P(B) therefore d is the correct answer.

An oblique prism has trapezoidal bases and a vertical height of 10 units. An oblique trapezoidal prism is shown. The trapezoid h

denis23 [38]

Answer:

volume of trapezoidal prism = 15x^2 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

First, area of the trapezoidal bases.

Parallel sides measure x and 2x, for an average of 1.5x.

Height = x

Area of trapezoidal base = 1.5x*x = 1.5x^2

Volume of prism = area base * height

(length does not matter, height does)

= 1.5x^2 * 10 = 15x^2
