Solve 2(x-2) = 3(x+2)-8

Mathematics
1 answer:
IgorC [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2) = 3(x+2)-8

Multiply the 2 and 3 out to the numbers in the parentheses. Don't multiply the 3 out to the -8 because it is outside of the parentheses.

2x-4 = 3x+6-8

Combine the 6 and -8

2x-4 = 3x-2

Subtract 2x from both sides

-4 = x-2

Add 2 to both sides

-2=x

The grades received by 200 students follow a normal distribution. The mean of the grades is 70%, and the standard deviation is 7
alexandr402 [8]
It may help you to consider the standard normal curve.  If the mean here is 70%, then 0.5 of the area under this curve.  In other words, half the students received a grade > 70%.  That would be 100 students.

Note that 84 is 2 std dev above the mean.

Recall the Empirical Rule:  95% of scores lie within 2 std. dev of the mean.
Measuring from the mean, that would be 47.5% above the mean and 47.5% below the mean.  The area to the right of the mean is 0.5.  Subtract 0.475 from that to obtain the fraction of students who rec'd a grade greater than 2 std dev from the mean:  It's 0.025.

Then the # of students who rec'd a grade greater than 84% would be
0.025(200 students) = 5 students.

What is the solution(s) to f(x) = g(x), where f(x) = x^2−2 and g(x) = 5x − 8
babymother [125]

If f(x)=g(x), than x²-2=5x-8

Now we need to solve this equation

x^2-2=5x-8\\x^2-5x+6=0\\D=b^2-4ac=(-5)^2-4\times6=25-24=1=\sqrt{1} ^2\\x_1=\dfrac{5+1}{2}=3\\ x_2=\dfrac{5-1}{2} =2

Answer: 2, 3
