-7x-8=x-8(1-5x)
Help me please

The answer is x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x - 8 = x - 8(1-5x)

Simplify and FOIL.

-7x - 8 = x - 8 + 40x

-7x - 8 = 41x - 8

Add 7x to both sides.

-8 = 48x - 8

Add 8 to both sides.

0 = 48x

x can only be 0 to multiply it by any other number and get 0.

x = 0

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3
