Hi,

Solving:

$15 - 3 |x - 4| < 18 \\ - 3 \times |x - 4| < 18 - 15 \\ - 3 \times |x - 4| < 3 \\ 3 \times |x - 4| > - 3 \\ x \in r$

Answer: The statement is true for any value of x.

Hope this helps.

False.

Replace x with 0 and solve:

2(0) + 3 = 0+ 3 = 3

3 is not greater than 13 so the answer is false.

An old house in Pomona, CA is inhabited by a variety of ghosts. Ghost appearances occur in the house according to a Poisson proc

shutvik [7]

Answer:

The probability is 0.503

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ghost appearances occur in the house according to a Poisson process with mean m, the time between appearances follows a exponential distribution with mean 1/m. so, the probability that the next ghost appearance happens before x hours is equal to:

$P(X\leq x)=1-e^{-xm}$

Then, replacing m by 1.4 ghosts per hour we get:

$P(X\leq x)=1-e^{-1.4x}$

Additionally, The exponential distribution have a memoryless property, so if it is now 1:00 p.m. and we want the probability that ghost appear before 1:30 p.m., we need to find the difference in hours from 1:00 p.m and 1:30 p.m. no matter that the last ghost appearance was at 12:35 p.m.

Therefore, there are 0.5 hours between 1:00 p.m. and 1:30 p.m, so the probability that the 7th ghost will appear before 1:30 p.m is calculated as:

$P(x\leq 0.5)=1-e^{-1.4*0.5} =0.503$

Anybody know the correct answer?

Since $\csc^2{x}=\frac{1}{\sin^2{x}}$ and $\cot^2{x}=\frac{\cos^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}}$ , we can rewrite the right side of the equation as

$\frac{1}{\sin^2{x}}-\frac{\cos^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}} =\frac{1-\cos^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}}$

Using the identity $\sin^2{x}+\cos^2{x}=1$ , we can subtract $\cos^2{x}$ from either side to obtain the identity $\sin^2{x}=1-\cos^2{x}$

substituting that into our previous expression, the right side of our equation simply becomes

$\frac{\sin^2{x}}{\sin^2{x}}=1$

We can now write our whole equation as

$3\tan^2{x}-2=1$

Adding 2 to both sides:

$3\tan^2{x}=3$

dividing both sides by 3:

$\tan^2{x}=1$

$\tan{x}=\pm1$

When 0 ≤ x ≤ π, tan x can only be equal to 1 when sin x = cos x, which happens at x = π/4, and it can only be equal to -1 when -sin x = cos x, which happens at x = 3π/4
