Can you solve the equation 2/3(4x - 5)= 8 by using the division property of equality? explain.

1 answer:

8 0

$\dfrac{2}{3}(4x-5)=8\qquad|\text{use the division property of equality}\\\\\dfrac{2}{3}(4x-5):\dfrac{2}{3}=8:\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\dfrac{2}{3}(4x-5)\cdot\dfrac{3}{2}=8\cdot\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\4x-5=4\cdot3\\\\4x-5=12\qquad|\text{use addition property of equality}\\\\4x-5+5=12+5\\\\4x=17\qquad|\text{use the division property of equality}\\\\4x : 4=17:4\\\\x=\dfrac{17}{4}$

If (x+2) is a factor of x^3-6x^2+kx+10, k=

Alja [10]

If a binomial $(x-a)$ is a factor of a polynomial, then $a$ is a root of this polynomial.

$(x+2)=(x-(-2)) \Rightarrow a=-2\\\\
(-2)^3-6\cdot(-2)^2+k\cdot(-2)+10=0\\
-8-24-2k+10=0\\
-2k=22\\\
\boxed{k=-11}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find all probabilities:

A. False

$Pr(\text{red shirt}|\text{large shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number red large shirts}}{\text{number large shirts}}=\dfrac{42}{77}=\dfrac{6}{11}\\ \\Pr(\text{large shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number large shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{77}{165}=\dfrac{7}{15}$

B. True

$Pr(\text{blue shirt}|\text{large shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number blue large shirts}}{\text{number large shirts}}=\dfrac{35}{77}=\dfrac{5}{11}\\ \\Pr(\text{blue shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number blue shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{75}{165}=\dfrac{5}{11}$

C. False

$Pr(\text{shirt is medium and blue})=\dfrac{\text{number medium and blue shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{48}{165}=\dfrac{16}{55}\\ \\Pr(\text{medium shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number medium shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{88}{165}=\dfrac{8}{15}$

D. False

$Pr(\text{large shirt}|\text{red shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number red large shirts}}{\text{number red shirts}}=\dfrac{42}{90}=\dfrac{7}{15}\\ \\Pr(\text{red shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number red shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{90}{165}=\dfrac{6}{11}$
