Answer: a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction

then find a Find common denominator for the fraction

then Combine fractions with common denominator,

Multiply the numbers, Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators, Cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator,

Multiply the numbers making your equation like this -5a+10=50

subtract 10 by both sides and then you will need to simplify making it

-5a + 40 then you divide them both by the same factor which is -5 then you simplify again making the <u>answer to your question -8  </u>

Which of the following represents two lines that are coplanar and do not intersect?
OverLord2011 [107]

Question:

Which of the following represents two lines that are coplanar and do not intersect?

A. Perpendicular

B. Skew

C. Parallel

D. Intersecting

Answer:

Two lines that are co -planar and do not intersect is  Parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be parallel if they lie in the same plane, and are the same distance apart over their entire length.Each line has many parallels. Any line that has the same slope as the original will never intersect with it.  Hence Parallel Lines would never cross, even if extended forever. Technically parallel lines are two coplanar which means they share the same plane or they're in the same plane that never intersect

If the perimeters are equal, you can form an equation to find x:
x + x + 12 + x + x + 12 = x + 11 + x + 11 + x + 16
4x + 24 = 3x + 38
- 3x
x + 24 = 38
- 24
x = 14
Now you can substitute the x value into the perimeter:
(4 × 14) + 24
56 + 24 = 80 cm

(3 × 14) + 38
42 + 38 = 80 cm

So the perimeter would be 80 cm.
I hope this helps!

A particular sale involves four items randomly selected from a large lot that is known to contain 9% defectives. Let X denote th
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The expected repair cost is $3.73.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> is defined as the number of defectives among the 4 items sold.

The probability of a large lot of items containing defectives is, <em>p</em> = 0.09.

An item is defective irrespective of the others.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 9 and <em>p</em> = 0.09.

The repair cost of the item is given by:

C=3X^{2}+X+2

Compute the expected cost of repair as follows:

E(C)=E(3X^{2}+X+2)

        =3E(X^{2})+E(X)+2

Compute the expected value of <em>X</em> as follows:

E(X)=np

         =4\times 0.09\\=0.36

The expected value of <em>X</em> is 0.36.

Compute the variance of <em>X</em> as follows:

V(X)=np(1-p)

         =4\times 0.09\times 0.91\\=0.3276\\

The variance of <em>X</em> is 0.3276.

The variance can also be computed using the formula:

V(X)=E(Y^{2})-(E(Y))^{2}

Then the formula of E(Y^{2}) is:

E(Y^{2})=V(X)+(E(Y))^{2}

Compute the value of E(Y^{2}) as follows:

E(Y^{2})=V(X)+(E(Y))^{2}

          =0.3276+(0.36)^{2}\\=0.4572

The expected repair cost is:

E(C)=3E(X^{2})+E(X)+2

         =(3\times 0.4572)+0.36+2\\=3.7316\\\approx 3.73

Thus, the expected repair cost is $3.73.
