The sum of eighteen and eight times a number is ninety.
what is the number?

This is geometry. could anyone ? i can't fail this class. my grade is quite low already.

(a) (8%) compute the probability of an even integer among the 100 integers 1! , 2! , 3! , until 100! (here n! is n factorial or n*(n-1)*(n-2) *… 1) (b) (16%) compute the probability of an even integer among the 100 integers: 1, 1+2, 1+2+3, 1+2+3+4, …., 1+2+3+… + 99, and 1+2+3+… + 100

How is working backward similar to solving an equation?
