Hey there!

3(4y - 12) = 0

3(4y) + 3(-12) = 0

12y - 36 = 0

Add 36 to both sides

12y - 36 + 36 = 0 + 36

Cancel out: -36 + 36 because it give you 0

Keep: 0 + 36 because it help solve for the equation

New equation: 12y = 0 + 36

Simplify it

12y = 36

DIVIDE 12 to both sides

12y/12 = 36/12

Cancel out: 12/12 because that give you 1

Keep: 36/12 because it give you the y-value (also known as your overall result)

New equation: y = 36/12

Simplify it

y = 3

Therefore, your answer should be:

y = 3

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Diameter of cylinder, d = 39.2 mm

Radius, r = 19.6 cm

Height of the cylinder, h = 39.2 mm

It is required to find the surface area of this cylinder. The formula of the surface area of cylinder is given by :

$S=2\pi rh+2\pi r^2\\\\S=2\pi r(h+r)$

Putting all values we get :

$S=2\times\dfrac{22}{7}\times19.6\cdot(39.2+19.6)\\\\S=7244.16\ mm^2$

Nitella [24]

Answer:

( $74.623, $83.777)

The 90% confidence interval is = ( $74.623, $83.777)

Critical value at 90% confidence = 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = $79.20

Standard deviation r = $10.41

Number of samples n = 14

Confidence interval = 90%

Using the z table;

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.

z(α=0.05) = 1.645

Critical value at 90% confidence z = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

$79.20+/-1.645($10.42/√14)

$79.20+/-1.645($2.782189528308)

$79.20+/-$4.576701774067

$79.20+/-$4.577

( $74.623, $83.777)

The 90% confidence interval is = ( $74.623, $83.777)

What’s is the solution to the equation x to the power of 2 =16/25

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

$x=\dfrac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

$x^2=\dfrac{16}{25}$

We need to find the value of x.

When the exponent 2 removes from LHS, it will shift to RHS as square root as follows :

$x=\sqrt{\dfrac{16}{25}}$

We know that, 4×4= 16 and 5×5 = 25

So,

$x=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 4}{5\times 5}}\\\\x=\dfrac{4}{5}$

So, the solution of the given equation is 4/5.
