Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

11 = 1/2x + 8

-> Move 8 to left side

11 - 8 = 1/2x

3 = 1/2x

->We can switch sides so 1/2x is on the left and 3 is on the right

1/2x = 3

x = 3 x 2/1

x = 6

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

11=1/2x+8

subtract 8 from both sides first.

11-8=1/2x

3=1/2x

Now, multiply by 2 or divide by 1/2 from both sides (your pick)

3*2=x

Therefore the answer is x=6

Answer:

a) P(x<5)=0.

b) E(X)=15.

c) P(8<x<13)=0.3.

d) P=0.216.

e) P=1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function:

$f(x)=\left \{ {{\frac{1}{10},\, \, \, 10\leq x\leq 20 } \atop {0, \, \, \, \, \, \, otherwise }} \right.$

a) We calculate the probability that you need less than 5 minutes to get up:

$P(x$

Therefore, the probability is P(x<5)=0.

b) It takes us between 10 and 20 minutes to get up. The expected value is to get up in 15 minutes.

E(X)=15.

c) We calculate the probability that you will need between 8 and 13 minutes:

$P(8\leq x\leq 13)=P(10\leqx\leq 13)\\\\P(8\leq x\leq 13)=\int_{10}^{13} f(x)\, dx\\\\P(8\leq x\leq 13)=\int_{10}^{13} \frac{1}{10} \, dx\\\\P(8\leq x\leq 13)=\frac{1}{10} \cdot [x]_{10}^{13}\\\\P(8\leq x\leq 13)=\frac{1}{10} \cdot (13-10)\\\\P(8\leq x\leq 13)=\frac{3}{10}\\\\P(8\leq x\leq 13)=0.3$

Therefore, the probability is P(8<x<13)=0.3.

d) We calculate the probability that you will be late to each of the 9:30am classes next week:

$P(x>14)=\int_{14}^{20} f(x)\, dx\\\\P(x>14)=\int_{14}^{20} \frac{1}{10} \, dx\\\\P(x>14)=\frac{1}{10} [x]_{14}^{20}\\\\P(x>14)=\frac{6}{10}\\\\P(x>14)=0.6$

You have 9:30am classes three times a week. So, we get:

$P=0.6^3=0.216$

Therefore, the probability is P=0.216.

e) We calculate the probability that you are late to at least one 9am class next week:

$P(x>9.5)=\int_{10}^{20} f(x)\, dx\\\\P(x>9.5)=\int_{10}^{20} \frac{1}{10} \, dx\\\\P(x>9.5)=\frac{1}{10} [x]_{10}^{20}\\\\P(x>9.5)=1$

Therefore, the probability is P=1.

Keiko has scored 86, 91, 86, 61, and 87 on her previous five tests. what score does she need on her next test so that her averag

Andru [333]

X= grade on next test

Add up all scores, divide by 6 and this equals the average of 84

(86 + 91 + 86 + 61 + 87 + x)/6= 84
add in parentheses

(411 + x)/6= 84
multiply both sides by 6

411 + x= 504
subtract 411 from both sides

x= 93

ANSWER: 93 is needed on the next test to have an average of 84

Hope this helps! :)
