et f(x) = x + |2x − 3|. Find all solutions to the equation f(x) = 12. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If an answe

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

1. {5,-9}

2.{4}

3.{9/2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation $f(x)=x+\lvert 2x-3 \rvert=12$ can be solved as follows:

$x+\lvert 2x-3 \rvert =12\,\,\,\text{(given equation)}$

$\lvert 2x-3 \rvert =12-x$

$2x-3=12-x\,\,\text{or}\,\,2x-3=-(12-x)$

$3x=15\,\,\text{or}\,\,\x=-9$

Then, the solutions of the equation are $x=5, x=-9$ .

Now, if $g(x)=5x-3+\lvert x+4\rvert$ , we can solve the equation $g(a)=4a+9$ as follows:

$5a-3+\lvert a+4 \rvert =4a+9$

$\lvert a+4\rvert =4a+9-5a+3$

$a+4 =-a+12\,\,\text{or}\,\,a+4=-(-a+12)$

$2a=8\,\,\text{or}\,\,4=12$

So, the unique solution of this last equation is $a=4$

The last equation is $h(x-1)=x-3$ , where $h(x)=\lvert x \rvert -2x+5.$ . To solve this equation we can proceed as follows:

$h(x-1)=x-3$

$\lvert x-1\rvert -2(x-1)+5=x-3$

$\lvert x-1 \rvert -2x+2+5=x-3$

$\lvert x-1\rvert =3x-10$

$x-1=3x-10\,\,\text{or}\,\,x-1=-(3x-10)$

$-2x=-9\,\,\text{or}\,\,4x=11$

$x=9/2\,\,\text{or}\,\,x=11/4$

But, x=11/4 is not a solution of this equation. So the unique solution is x=9/2.

A random variable x follows a normal distribution with mean d and standard deviation o=2. It is known that x is less than 5 abou

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The mean of this distribution is approximately 3.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's how to solve this problem using a normal distribution table.

Let $z$ be the

$\displaystyle z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ .

In this question, $x = 5$ and $\sigma = 2$ . The equation becomes

$\displaystyle z = \frac{5 - \mu}{2}$ .

To solve for $\mu$ , the mean of this distribution, the only thing that needs to be found is the value of $z$ . Since

The problem stated that $P(X \le 5) = 69.85\% = 0.6985$ . Hence, $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ .

The problem is that the normal distribution tables list only the value of $P(0 \le Z \le z)$ for $z \ge 0$ . To estimate $z$ from $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ , it would be necessary to find the appropriate

Since $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ and is greater than $P(Z \le 0) = 0.50$ , $z > 0$ . As a result, $P(Z \le z)$ can be written as the sum of $P(Z < 0)$ and $P(0 \le Z \le z)$ . Besides, $P(Z < 0) = P(Z \le 0) = 0.50$ . As a result:

$\begin{aligned}&P(Z \le z)\\ &= P(Z < 0) + P(0 \le Z \le z) \\ &= 0.50 + P(0 \le Z \le z)\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}&P(0 \le Z \le z) \\ &= P(Z \le z) - 0.50 \\&= 0.6985 - 0.50 \\&=0.1985 \end{aligned}$ .

Lookup $0.1985$ on a normal distribution table. The corresponding $z$ -score is $0.52$ . (In other words, $P(0 \le Z \le 0.52) = 0.1985$ .)

Given that

$z = 0.52$ ,
$x =5$ , and
$\sigma = 2$ ,

Solve the equation $\displaystyle z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ for the mean, $\mu$ :

$\displaystyle 0.52 = \frac{5 - \mu}{2}$ .

$\mu = 5 - 2 \times 0.52 = 3.96$ .
