Answer:

{x|x < -2 or x > 8}

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x - 6| > 10

We split the inequality into two functions, one positive and one negative.  The negative one flips the inequality.  since this is greater than, this is an or problem

2x-6 >10                 or  2x-6 < -10

Add 6 to each side

2x-6+6 > 10+6         2x-6+6 < -10+6

2x   > 16                    2x < -4

Divide by 2

2x/2 > 16/2                2x/2 < -4/2

x >8                 or        x < -2

ANSWER

{x|x < -2 or x > 8}

EXPLANATION

The given absolute inequality is

|2x - 6|  \:  >  \: 10

By the definition of absolute value,

(2x - 6)\:  >  \: 10 \: or \:  \: -  (2x - 6)\:  >  \: 10

Multiply through the second inequality by -1 and reverse the inequality sign

2x - 6\:  >  \: 10 \: or \:  \: 2x - 6\:   <  \:  - 10

2x \:  >  \: 10 + 6\: or \:  \: 2x \:   <  \:  - 10 + 6

Simplify

2x \:  >  \: 16\: or \:  \: 2x \:   <  \:  -4

Divide through by 2

x \:  >  \: 8\: or \:  \: x \:   <  \:  -2

HELP DUE IN AN HOUR
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

D) no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 1) ≤ 4x + 3

First, distribute 4 to all terms within the parenthesis:

4(x + 1) = 4(x) + 4(1) = 4x + 4

4x + 4 ≤ 4x + 3

Isolate the variable, x. Treat the "≤" as an equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 4x and 4 from both sides:

4x (-4x) + 4 (-4) ≤ 4x (-4x) + 3 (-4)

4x - 4x ≤ 3 - 4

0 ≤ -1

Since x was eliminated from the inequality, and you need the x for the inequality, your answer is D) no solution.

An airline records data on several variables for each of its flights, model of plane, amount of fuel used, time in flight,
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The correct option is;

2 categorical, 3 quantitative (1 discrete, 2 continuous)

Step-by-step explanation:

A categorical variable which is otherwise known as a nominal variable is one which can be qualified as belonging to one class or category of objects or the other, depending on its attributes, and not based on order of the classes.

Therefore;

1) The model of the plane, and 2) whether the flight arrived on time, are categorical variable

A quantitative variable is a variable that indicates measurement and therefore, indicates the numerical magnitude of a measurement.

Therefore;

1) Amount of fuel used, 2) Time in flight, 3) The number of passengers are quantitative variables

Quantitative variables can be either discrete or continuous

A discrete quantitative variable is one that has a finite number of possible values or which may have an infinite but countable number of values

Therefore;

1) The number of passengers which is countable and exact is a discrete quantitative variable

A continuous variable is one whose exact or accurate value range is infinite or a variable with a limitless value set such as the range of values between two real numbers

Therefore;

1) Amount of fuel used and 2) Time of flight are continuous quantitative variables.

1. Use "decomposing" to answer the question bellow.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

1A: 29 units²

1B: √29 units

2, 3, 4. see below

5. between 8 and 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1A: Split the given square up into 4 triangles and a square in the centre. You'll get 4 triangles of sides 5 and 2, and a centre square of sides 3.

Area = 4(0.5)(5 x 2) + (3²) = 29 units²

1B: Square root your answer in 1A. √29 units

Alternatively you can use Pythagoras' theorem on one of the triangles. √(5² + 2²) = √29 units

2. The area is exactly 17 units, because the area of a square is the length of its side squared. (√17)² = 17, hence the square's area is 17 units.

3. A number that can be expressed as a fraction (includes whole numbers). E.g. 1/2, 1/7, 4

4. A number that cannot be expressed as a fraction. E.g. π, e, √3

5. Consider the closest square numbers to 70. 70 is closer to 64 than 81 (difference of 6 vs 11). Hence √70 should be closer to 8 than 9. Your answer should be between 8 and 8.5.
