How is solving for a variable similar to solving an equation? How is it different

Mathematics
1 answer:
storchak [24]1 year ago

When we say "solve for the variable", we mean to solve the equation because the solution of the equation is finding the unknown variable.

So, the similarity between "solving for a "variable" to "solving an equation" is that both actions imply looking at the value of that variable.

<h2>Similarity: both actions imply looking at the value of that variable.</h2>

On the other hand, a slight difference would be in the case of having several variables in the equation. In this case, both actions could represent slight differences, because if we have three different variables and we say "solve for <em>y</em>", that means we must isolate that variable, and the result is just an expression. But, if we say "solve the equation"

In any​ year, the weather can inflict storm damage to a home. From year to​ year, the damage is random. Let Y denote the dollar
krok68 [10]

Answer:

a. mean = 1000

standard deviation = 4358.9

b. expected value of average damage bar Y = 1000

probability bar y exceeds 2000 = 0.011

Step-by-step explanation:

we have p1 = 95%, y1 = 0, p2 = 5%, y2 = 20000

Mean = (0.95 * 0) + (0.05 * 20000)

= 1000

var(y) = E(y²) - E(Y)²

= we solve for E(y)²

= 0²*0.95 + 20000²*0.05

= 0 + 20000000

then the variance of y = 20000000 - 1000²

=20000000-1000000

= $19000000

standard  deviation is the square root of variance

= √19000000

= 4358.9

2.

a. Expected value of average is also the mean = 1000

b. we are to find probability that barY exceeds 2000

z=\frac{2000-1000}{\sqrt{19000000/100} }

= 1000/435.889

= 2.29

1-p(z≤2.29)

= 1 - 0.989

= 0.011

so the probability that barY exceeds 2000 is 0.011

Total kg of corn those chickens eat=3/5 x 4=12/5=2,4
so 1 week=7 days, so corns eat by chickens/day will be 2,4/7

To find the product of 42.12 and 10³, move the decimal point in 42.12 __ places to the right because 10³ has __ zeros.
Yakvenalex [24]
<h3>To find the product of 42.12 and 10^3,  move the decimal point in 42.12 3 places to the right because 10^3 has 3 zeros</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

\text{ product of } 42.12 \text{ and } 10^3

Which means,

42.12 \times 10^3

Here, the exponent of 10 is positive ( which is 3)

When the exponent is positive, we have to move the decimal point to right

When you multiply a number by a power of 10, ( 10!, 10^2, and so on ) move the decimal point of the number to the right the same number of places as the number of zeros in the power of 10

Here, exponent is 3 , therefore move the decimal point right 3 places in 42.12

Therefore,

42.12 \times 10^3 = 42120

Which of the following represents the prime factortzation of 72?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

2³ x 3²

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime factorization of a number is the process of breaking down a number to a set of prime numbers that their product will give the original number:

          72

      2   x    36

      2 x 2 x 18

      2 x 2 x 2 x 9

       2 x 2  x 2 x 3 x 3

So;

  The prime factorization is 2³ x 3²
