Answer:

$x = \frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the distributed property to 2(x - 4). It should now look like this: 2x - 8
Plug 2x - 8 in: 2x - 8 + 2x = -6x - 2
Combine like terms on the left side, so it now looks like this: 4x - 8 = -6x - 2
Combine like terms even further: 4x - -6x = 8 - 2
Simplify: 4x + 6x = 6
Start adding, so it now looks like this: 10x = 6
Divide each side by 10 to cancel out the 10 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 3/5

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Second option: 81y^4 - 16x^2, the difference of squares

Step-by-step explanation:

(9y^2-4x)(9y^2+4x) is a special product named difference of squares, then we can apply this formula:

(a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2, with a=9y^2 and b=4x, then:

(9y^2-4x)(9y^2+4x)=(9y^2)^2 - (4x)^2

(9y^2-4x)(9y^2+4x)=(9)^2 (y^2)^2 - (4)^2 (x)^2

(9y^2-4x)(9y^2+4x)=81y^(2*2) - 16x^2

(9y^2-4x)(9y^2+4x)=81y^4 - 16x^2

Mr. Thomas spent $1,600 of his savings on a television set and 2/5 of the remainder on a refrigerator. He had 1/3 of his origina

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The amount spent on the refrigerator is $ 800 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The amount spent on television = $ 1600

Le The total amount in the account = $ A

so, The amount left in account after spent on television = $ A - $ 1600

The amount spent on refrigerator = $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( A - 1600 )

The amount left in his saving account = $\frac{1}{3}$ × A

Now, According to question

A - ( 1600 + $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( A - 1600 ) ) = $\frac{1}{3}$ × A

Or, A - $\frac{1}{3}$ × A = 1600 + $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( A - 1600 )

Or, $\frac{2}{3}$ × A = 1600 + $\frac{2}{5}$ × A - $\frac{2}{5}$ × 1600

or, $\frac{2}{3}$ × A - $\frac{2}{5}$ × A = 1600 - 640

Or, $\frac{10 - 6 }{15}$ × A = 960

or, $\frac{4}{15}$ × A = 960

∴ A = $\frac{960\times 15}{4}$

I.e A = 3600

So, The amount in the saving account is $3600

∵ , The amount spent on refrigerator = $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( 3600 - 1600 )

Or, The amount spent on refrigerator = $\frac{2}{5}$ × 2000

I.e The amount spent on refrigerator = $ 800

Hence The amount spent on the refrigerator is $ 800 . Answer

Consider a system with one component that is subject to failure, and suppose that we have 115 copies of the component. Suppose f

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

the mean $(\mu) = 115 \times 20$

= 2300

Standard deviation = $20 \times \sqrt{115}$

Standard deviation (SD) = 214.4761

TO find:

a) $P(x > 3500)= P(Z > \dfrac{3500-\mu}{214.4761})$

$P(x > 3500)= P(Z > \dfrac{3500-2300}{214.4761})$

$P(x > 3500)= P(Z > \dfrac{1200}{214.4761})$

$P(x > 3500)= P(Z >5.595)$

From the Z-table, since 5.595 is > 3.999

$P(x > 3500)=1-0.9999$

P(x > 3500) = 0.0001

Here, the replacement time for the mean $(\mu) = \dfrac{0+0.5}{2}$

= 0.25

Replacement time for the Standard deviation $\sigma = \dfrac{0.5-0}{\sqrt{12}}$

$\sigma = 0.1443$

For 115 component, the mean time = (115 × 20)+(114×0.25)

= 2300 + 28.5

= 2328.5

Standard deviation = $\sqrt{(115\times 20^2) +(114\times (0.1443)^2)}$

= $\sqrt{(115\times 400) +(114\times 0.02082249}$

= $\sqrt{(46000) +2.37376386}$

= $\sqrt{(46000) +(2.37376386)}$

= $\sqrt{46002.374}$

= 214.482

Now; the required probability:

$P(x > 4125) = P(Z > \dfrac{4125- 2328.5}{214.482})$

$P(x > 4125) = P(Z > \dfrac{1796.5}{214.482})$

$P(x > 4125) = P(Z >8.376)$

$P(x > 4125) =1- P(Z$

From the Z-table, since 8.376 is > 3.999

P(x > 4125) = 1 - 0.9999

P(x > 4125) = 0.0001
