1-2m-5m=15

combine like terms

1 -7m = 15

subtract 1 from each side

1-1-7m = 15-1

simplify

-7m = 14

divide by -7

-7m/-7 = 14/-7

simplify

m = -2

In Exercises 10 and 11, points B and D are points of tangency. Find the value(s) of x.<br>

Lemur [1.5K]

In both cases,

$AB^2=AD^2$

(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)

So we have

10.

$(4x+7)^2=(6x-3)^2$

$16x^2+56x+49=36x^2-36x+9$

$20x^2-92x-40=0$

$5x^2-23x-10=0$

$(5x+2)(x-5)=0\implies\boxed{x=5}$

(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)

11.

$(4x^2-18x-10)^2=(x^2+x+4)^2$

$16x^4-144x^3+244x^2+360x+100=x^4+2x^3+9x^2+8x+16$

$15x^4-146x^3+235x^2+352x+84=0$

$(x-7)(3x+2)(5x^2-17x-6)=0\implies\boxed{x=-\dfrac23\text{ or }x=7}$

(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)

The weights of bags of ready-to-eat salad are normally distributed with a mean of 290 grams and a standard deviation of 10 grams

pentagon [3]

290-10=280

280 is one standard deviation below.
All that are above mean is 50%.
One standard deviation below is 34%.
50%+34%=84% all of these bags weigh more than 280 g.
So,
100%-84%=16% should be bags that are less than 280 g.

Answer is b) 16 %.

The function will be a (linear function) linear equation in two variable and the equation of the function is y = 87x - 783

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have given data:

Game(x): 13 14 15 16 17 18

Attendance(y): 348 435 552 609 696 783

If plot these points on a coordinate plane, we will see these points will align in a straight line.

We know we can find a line equation with two points:

(13, 348) and (14, 435)

$\rm (y - 435) = \dfrac{435-348}{14-13}(x-14)$

y - 435 =87(x-14)

y = 87x - 783

Thus, the function will be a (linear function) linear equation in two variable and the equation of the function is y = 87x - 783
