Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

4 (1 - x) + 2 x = -3 (x + 1)

4 (1 - x) = 4 - 4 x:

2 x + 4 - 4 x = -3 (x + 1)

2 x - 4 x = -2 x:

-2 x + 4 = -3 (x + 1)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

4 - 2 x = -3 x - 3

Add 3 x to both sides:

3 x - 2 x + 4 = (3 x - 3 x) - 3

3 x - 3 x = 0:

3 x - 2 x + 4 = -3

3 x - 2 x = x:

x + 4 = -3

Subtract 4 from both sides:

x + (4 - 4) = -4 - 3

4 - 4 = 0:

x = -4 - 3

-4 - 3 = -7:

Answer: x = -7

Answer:

3x-8<23 and -4x+26>6

x<31/3 x<5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-8<23

Add 8 to both sides

3x<31

Then divide 3 to both sides

x<31/3

and -4x+26>6

Minus 26 to both sides

-4x>-20

You divide -4 to both sides

Keep in mind that everytime you divide a negative the inequality will change so > will be <

An art history professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme.A: Top 5% of scoresB: Scores below th

adoni [48]

Answer:

Grade B score:

$76 \leq x \leq 89$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 73.3

Standard Deviation, σ = 9.7

We are given that the distribution of score on test is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

B: Scores below the top 5% and above the bottom 62%

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

$P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62$

$= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62$

$=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.38$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 0.305\\\\x = 76.26$

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.05

$P(X < 0.95) = \\\\P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.95$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 1.645\\\\x = 89.26$

Thus, the numerical value of score to achieve grade B is

$76 \leq x \leq 89$

Is the following number rational or irrational? -3+π

enyata [817]

Answer:

B, irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that π is irrational, since it can not be written as a division between natural numbers (a sub class of Real numbers called N), it's value is 3,1415(a whole bunch of decimals after this)

If you remove the decimal part of π by subtracting the integer part of it, that is the number 3. the result will still being and irrational number

Since π= 3(the rational part) +0,1415... (the irrational part)

The resut of π-=3= 0,1415...
