Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

3 <em><u>-</u></em> (<u><em>-</em></u>1) + (-1) -3 =

Minus and a negative makes it positive. In other words it would be written like this: 3 + 1 <u><em>+</em></u> (<u><em>-</em></u>1) - 3 =

Next step would be making it minus 1, because plus sign and negative makes the number to be subtracted. It would be rewritten like this: <em><u>3 + 1 </u></em>- 1 - 3 =

Then you will simply add 3 and 1, which makes it 4. So it would be rewritten likes this: <em><u>4 - 1</u></em> - 3 =

Then you will simply subtract 1 from 4, which would equal to 3. So it would be rewritten like this: <em><u>3 - 3</u></em> =

Last step, would be subtracting 3 from 3. Whatever is subtracted from itself would always be 0.

So the answer would be 0!

The answer is 0 because a negative times a negative is a positive, and a positive times a negative is negative, then it would be 3+1-3 and it’s 0.

John is 3 years older than Jim. Jim is 4 years less than twice David’s age. How old are the three boys if their ages add up to 3
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

15  years , 12  years , 8 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

John is 3 years older than Jim.

Jim is 4 years less than twice David’s age.

Ages of three boys add up to 35.

Question asked:

How old are the three boys?

Solution:

Let age of David = y

Let age of Jim = x

Then age of John will be = x + 3

As Jim is 4 years less than twice David’s age

Equation will be  , x = 2y - 4

Multiplying both side  by 2

                       = 2x = 4y - 8  (let equation 1 )

As ages of three boys add up to 35.

Equation will be,x + (x + 3) + y = 35

                           = 2x + 3 + y = 35

Subtracting both side by 3

                           =   2x + y = 32

                          = 2x = - y + 32  (let equation 2 )

subtracting equation 1 and 2,we get

                           =  2x = - y + 32

                          =   2x = 4y - 8

                          =  0 = - 5y + 40

                          = 5y = 40

dividing both side by 5

                              = y = 8 (David ages)

Then  ( age of Jim)  x = 2y - 4

                                 x = 2 \times8 - 4

                                    = 16 - 4

                                    = 12 years

Then age of John will be, x + 3

                                            = 12 + 3

                                            = 15 years

Thus, age of John = 15 years

Age of Jim = 12 years

Age of David = 8 years

Applying Inverse Properties In Exercise,apply the inverse properties of logarithmic and exponential functions to simplify the ex
Kryger [21]

Answer:

x^3-8

Step-by-step explanation:

apply the inverse properties of logarithmic and exponential functions to simplify  

- 8 + e^{lnx^3}

Inverse property of log says that

e^{ln(x)=x

we apply this property in our problem. ln has same base 'e' . so ln and e gets cancelled

e^{ln(x^3)=x^3

- 8 + e^{lnx^3}

- 8 +x^3

x^3-8

A cola-dispensing machine is set to dispense 8 ounces of cola per cup, with a standard deviation of 1.0 ounce. The manufacturer
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is X: ounces per cup dispensed by the cola-dispensing machine.

The population mean is known to be μ= 8 ounces and its standard deviation σ= 1.0 ounce. Assuming the variable has a normal distribution.

A sample of 34 cups was taken:

a. You need to calculate the Z-values corresponding to the top 5% of the distribution and the lower 5% of it. This means you have to look for both Z-values that separates two tails of 5% each from the body of the distribution:

The lower value will be:

Z_{o.o5}= -1.648

You reverse the standardization using the formula Z= \frac{X[bar]-Mu}{\frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } ~N(0;1)

-1.648= \frac{X[bar]-8}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{34} } }

X[bar]= 7.72ounces

The lower control point will be 7.72 ounces.

The upper value will be:

Z_{0.95}= 1.648

1.648= \frac{X[bar]-8}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{34} } }

X[bar]= 8.28ounces

The upper control point will be 8.82 ounces.

b. Now μ= 7.6, considering the control limits of a.

P(7.72≤X[bar]≤8.28)= P(X[bar]≤8.28)- P(X[bar]≤7.72)

P(Z≤(8.28-7.6)/(1/√34))- P(Z≤7.72-7.6)/(1/√34))

P(Z≤7.11)- P(Z≤0.70)= 1 - 0.758= 0.242

There is a 0.242 probability of the sample means being between the control limits, this means that they will be outside the limits with a probability of 1 - 0.242= 0.758, meaning that the probability of the change of population mean being detected is 0.758.

b. For this item μ= 8.7, the control limits do not change:

P(7.72≤X[bar]≤8.28)= P(X[bar]≤8.28)- P(X[bar]≤7.72)

P(Z≤(8.28-8.7)/(1/√34))- P(Z≤7.72-8.7)/(1/√34))

P(Z≤-2.45)- P(Z≤-5.71)=0.007 - 0= 0.007

There is a 0.007 probability of not detecting the mean change, which means that you can detect it with a probability of 0.993.

I hope it helps!
