What is the answer to 2/3 of something equals 10

2 answers:

7 0

In math, when you see the word "of" it usually means "times".

So the question is:

2/3 times something = 10

Multiply each side of the equation by 3 :

2 times something = 30

Divide each side by 2 :

 something = 15

If you want to calculate the fraction of the number, multiply this number by the fraction:

$\frac{2}{3}\times?=10$

therefore

$?=10:\frac{2}{3}=10\times\frac{3}{2}=5\times3=\boxed{15}$

Solve the system of equations −4x+3y=−2 y=x−1 x = y =

dolphi86 [110]

Answer: x = -1 and y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you know y = x-1 you can plug that in where y is in the first equation

-4x + 3(x-1) = -2

Distribute the 3:

-4x +3x -3 = -2

Combine like terms:
-x -3 = -2

Add 3 to both sides:
-x = 1

Multiply by -1:
X = -1

Then you plug that into the other equation to get y=(-1)-1

Which is -2

For a fair coin, suppose you toss the coin 100 times.

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0005 = 0.05% probability of getting more than 66 heads.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.

Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The binomial distribution is the probability of x successes on n trials, with p probability of a success on each trial. It can be approximated to the normal distribution with $\mu = np, \sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$ .

For the binomial distribution, the parameters are given as follows:

n = 100, p = 0.5.

Hence the mean and the standard deviation of the approximation are given as follows:

$\mu = np = 100(0.5) = 50$ .

$\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{100(0.5)(0.5)} = 5$

Using continuity correction, the probability of getting more than 66 heads is P(X > 66 + 0.5) = P(X > 66.5), which is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 66.5.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{66.5 - 50}{5}$

Z = 3.3

Z = 3.3 has a p-value of 0.9995.

1 - 0.9995 = 0.0005.

0.0005 = 0.05%

Solve this quadratic equation by completing the square.

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

$x=-3+\sqrt{27}\\ x=-3-\sqrt{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find our C value for the quadratic equation.

$(\frac{6}{2})^{2} = 9$

That is our C. Since we added 9 to one side, we have to do the same to the other. We get:

$x^{2} +6x + 9 = 18 + 9\\x^{2} +6x + 9 = 27$

Now, lets form the left side as a binomial squared.

$(x+3)^{2} = 27$

Let's square both sides now:

$x+3 = (+/-)\sqrt{27}$

Now, we subtract 3 from both sides to isolate the variable, X:

$x= -3(+/-)\sqrt{27}$

This means that the answers are:

$x=-3+\sqrt{27}\\ x=-3-\sqrt{27}$

I do not understand your answers though. Answer A makes no sense, answer B is 221, answer C is 115, and answer D also does not make sense. If you could clarify this portion, maybe I can help you find your alphabetic answer
