• What is the solution to 5x+ 20 = 7(x+2)?

o-na [289]

For this case we must find the solution of the following equation:

$5x + 20 = 7 (x + 2)$

Applying distributive property on the right side of the equation we have:

$5x + 20 = 7x + 14$

Subtracting 7x from both sides of the equation:

$5x-7x + 20 = 14\\-2x + 20 = 14$

Subtracting 20 from both sides of the equation:

$-2x = 14-20$

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

$-2x = -6$

Dividing between -2 on both sides of the equation:

$x = \frac {-6} {- 2}\\x = 3$

Thus, the solution of the equation is $x = 3$

Answer:

$x = 3$

Maths!

Ber [7]

Answer:

(1) Variance = 4.5 and Standard deviation = 2.121.

(2) Variance = 4.5 and Standard deviation = 2.121.

(3) The effect on the measure of dispersion if each value is changed uniformly is that it remains unchanged.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the following set of data below;

X $X-\bar X$ $(X-\bar X)^{2}$

5 5 - 8 = -3 9

8 8 - 8 = 0 0

10 10 - 8 = 2 4

9 9 - 8 = 1 1

6 6 - 8 = -2 4

Total 72 36

Firstly, the mean of the above data is given by;

Mean, $\bar X$ = $\frac{\sum X}{n}$

= $\frac{72}{9}$ = 8

(1)Now, the variance of the given data is;

Variance = $\frac{\sum (X-\bar X)^{2} }{n-1}$

= $\frac{36}{9-1}$ = 4.5

So, the standard deviation, (S.D.) = $\sqrt{\text{Variance}}$

= $\sqrt{4.5}$ = 2.12

(2) Now, each value is added by 2; so the new data set is given by;

X $X-\bar X$ $(X-\bar X)^{2}$

7 7 - 10 = -3 9

10 10 - 10 = 0 0

12 12 - 10 = 2 4

11 11 - 10 = 1 1

8 8 - 10 = -2 4

Total 90 36

Firstly, the mean of the above data is given by;

Mean, $\bar X$ = $\frac{\sum X}{n}$

= $\frac{90}{9}$ = 10

(1)Now, the variance of the given data is;

Variance = $\frac{\sum (X-\bar X)^{2} }{n-1}$

= $\frac{36}{9-1}$ = 4.5

So, the new standard deviation, (S.D.) = $\sqrt{\text{Variance}}$

= $\sqrt{4.5}$ = 2.12

(3) The effect on the measure of dispersion if each value is changed uniformly is that it remains unchanged as we see in the case of variance or standard deviation.

If a triangle has side 6 feet and 9 feet and perimeter is 23 feet , how long is the third side ?

tiny-mole [99]

The perimeter of a triangle is found by adding all the three sides.

Let's call the third side "x"

So,

6+9+x = 23

15+x = 23

x = 8

LABC measures 90° and ZABD measures 25. What is the measurement of ZDBC?

makkiz [27]

Answer: The measurement of angle DBC is 65 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Line BD splits ABC into two angles ABD and DBC.

If ABC is 90 then the measures of ABD + DBC will be 90. Since we know the measure of ABD we can make this equation and solve it

$90=25+x\\90-25=25+x-25\\65=x$
