Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

7/8(-32)-7/8(48x)+36=2/3(-33x)-2/3(18)-10x  

= -224/8-336x/8+36

=-66x/3-36/3-10x.  

Simplifying the fractions

-28-42x+36=-22x-12-10x.  

Combining like terms

-42x+8=-32x-12.  

Add 32x to both sides:  

-42x+8+32x=-32x-12+32x

-10x+8=-12.  

Subtract 8 from both sides:  

-10x+8-8=-12-8

-10x=-20.  

Divide both sides by -10:  

-10x/-10 = -20/-10

x=2.

Which expression shows a way to find 20% of 950?<br> 950<br> 20<br> 20<br> What is it
Komok [63]
To find 20% of 950 you would set it up as a proportion. When doing percentages the prevent is always out of 100 so the first step would be 20/100. You are trying to find a number out of 950 so the second part would be ?/950. Now you want to cross multiply and divide. 20*950=19,000 then you divide it by 100 (your other number) 19,000/100=190. So 20% of 950 is 190.

Lesson 3 homework practice mean absolute deviation
Natali5045456 [20]
Assuming that am supposed to calculate the the mean absolute deviation of 
1,2,3,4,5,6,7
mean absolute deviation is calculated by first calculating the mean;
 (1+2+3+4+5+6+7) =28/7
                               = 4
Then, find the absolute value (the difference between each value in the data and the mean) (x-μ)
 = -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3
Absolute values= 3,2,1,0,1,2,3
Then we find the mean of the values,
3+2+1+0+1+2+3 = 12
                           = 12/7
                           = 1.7143
Therefore, the mean is 4, and the Mean absolute deviation is 1.7143
