Solve for x.

a2x+a−8=(a+8)(x)

 Add -8x to both sides.

a^2x+a−8+−8x=ax+8x+−8x

a^2x+a−8x−8=ax

Add -ax to both sides.

a^2x+a−8x−8+−ax=ax+−ax

a^2x−ax+a−8x−8=0

Add 8 to both sides.

a^2x−ax+a−8x−8+8=0+8

a^2x−ax+a−8x=8

Add -a to both sides.

a^2x−ax+a−8x+−a=8+−a

a^2x−ax−8x=−a+8

Factor out variable x.

x(a^2−a−8)=−a+8

Divide both sides by a^2-a-8.

x(a^2−a−8) / a^2−a−8 = −a+8 / a^2−a−8

\sf x =  \dfrac{-a+8}{a^2-a-8}

Identify Arithmetic Mean, Geometric Mean and Harmonic Mean from the following averages: 56.4, 59.8 and 55.8
photoshop1234 [79]
If you would like to calculate the arithmetic mean, geometric mean, and harmonic mean from the following averages, you can calculate this using the following steps:

averages: 56.4, 59.8, 55.8
the number of values: 3

arithmetic mean:
(56.4 + 59.8 + 55.8) / 3 = 57.33

geometric mean:
(56.4 * 59.8 * 55.8)^(1/3) = 57.31

harmonic mean:
3 / (1/56.4 + 1/59.8 + 1/55.8) = 57.28

One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid. After a transformation, the vertex is located at (5, 0). Whi
madreJ [45]

Answer:

The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the rotation of a point

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° anti-clock wise

∴ Its image is (-y , x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° clock wise

 (270° anti-clockwise or -90°)

∴ Its image is (y , -x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 180°

∴ Its image is (-x , -y)

* There is no difference between rotating 180° clockwise (-180°) or  

anti-clockwise (180°) around the origin

* Lets solve the problem

∵ One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid

∵ The image of the point after the transformation is (5 , 0)

- The coordinates are switched with each other

∴ There is no rotation with 180° or -180° because in the rotation with

 180° and -180° around the origin we change only the signs of the

 coordinates without switch them

∴ There is a rotation with 90° are 270° or -90°

- The zero has no sign

- When we rotate the point (0 , 5) by -90° or 270° around the origin

 we will change the sign of x-coordinate and switch the two

 coordinates

∴ The image of the point is (y , -x)

∵ x = 0 and y = 5

- There is no sign for zero, so we switch the coordinates only

∴ The vertex is located at (5, 0)

∴ The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)

How to do RX - sx + y equals B plzz explain how to get the answer there all variables!!!!
zalisa [80]
Rx - sx + y = b

WHEN SOLVING FOR X :

rx - sx + y = b

We must get x onto it's own side, so subtract y from both side.s

rx - sx = b - y

Then, factor out x.

x(r - s) = b - y

Then, divide both sides by (r - s).

x(r - s) ÷ (r - s) = b - y ÷ (r - s)

Simplify.

x = b - y / r - s → x =  \frac{b-y}{r-s}

WHEN SOLVING FOR Y :

rx - sx + y = b

We need to isolate y, so get rid of everything BUT y on the left side.

Subtract rx from both sides.

-sx + y = b - rx

Then, add sx to both sides.

y = b - rx + sx

~Hope I helped!~

When does the​ t-distribution approach the standard normal​ distribution? Choose the correct answer below. A. When the standard
const2013 [10]

Answer:

E. When the sample size​ increases, because the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means better estimates the population standard deviation for larger sample sizes.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • T distribution is similar to the normal distribution and is seen when the estimates of the variance are based on the degree of freedom and has a relatively more score in its tail and has a greater change of extreme values.
