Answer: x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 35, the least common multiple of 5,7.

7×4x−5×3x=5×4x+5×5x

Multiply 7 and 4 to get 28.

28x−5×3x=5×4x+5×5x

Multiply −5 and 3 to get −15.

28x−15x=5×4x+5×5x

Combine 28x and −15x to get 13x.

13x=20x+25x

Combine 20x and 25x to get 45x.

13x=45x

Subtract 45x from both sides

13x−45x=0

Combine 13x and −45x to get −32x

−32x=0

Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since −32 is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.

How do I determine which is y=-1/3x+2?

Jlenok [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear equation in slope intercept form which is

$y = mx + b$

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The equation

$y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 2$

Has a slope of -1/3 so this means that the slope will be decreasing. A negative linear equation increases as we go left. and decreases as we go right. The y intercept is 2. So this means the graph must pass through (0,2) and when x=0, y must be 2.

In other words, look for a line that the y values increase as we go left and decrease we go right. Also look for a point (0,2) and make sure the graph pass through it.

For each of the following binomial random variables, specify n and p. (a) A fair die is rolled 50 times. X = number of times a 5

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

a) $n = 50, p = \frac{1}{6}$

b) $n = 16, p = \frac{1}{100}$

c) $n = 26, p = 0.25, \mu = 6.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And $p$ is the probability of X happening.

(a) A fair die is rolled 50 times. X = number of times a 5 is rolled

The die is rolled 50 times, so $n = 50$ .

Each roll can have 6 outcomes. So the probability that 5 is rolled is $p = \frac{1}{6}$

(b) A company puts a game card in each box of cereal and 1/100 of them are winners. You buy sixteen boxes of cereal, and X = number of times you win.

You buy 16 boxes of cereal, so $n = 16$ .
