3 0

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5 less than a number is equivalent to 1 more than three times the number

number = x

x - 5 = 3x + 1

now im going to get the numbers and variable on different sides

x - 5 + 5 = x

3x + 1 - 3x = 1

x + 3x = 4x

1 - 5 = -4

4x = -4

lastly im going to divide each side by 4

4x / 4 = x

-4 / 4 = -1

x = -1

What are two consecutive numbers whose cube differs by 271
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Two consecutive numbers cubes differ by 271. Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x + 1. The difference of the two consecutive numbers is 271. ( x + 1 ) ^3 - x ^3 = 271. 1 + 3 x ^ 2 + 3 x - 271 = 0.

Which is a solution for the equation y = 4x + 3?
yanalaym [24]
Point are set up (x,y) you sub the number for x into the equation and see if you get the number for y.
y=4x+3
y=4 (5)+3
y=20+3
y=23
so A isn't the answer

y=4 (17)+3
y=68+3
y=71
B isn't the answer

y=4 (4)+3
y=16+3
y=19
and because 4 is the x value for c and d and there can only be 1 y value for each x you're answer is C because when x=4 y =19 or (4,19)

Trains Two trains, Train A and Train B. weigh a total of 196 tons. Train A is heavier than Train B. The
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Train A = 128

Train B = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a system of equations for this problem

Let A = # of tons of Train A

Let B = # of tons of Train B

A + B = 196

A = B + 60

Now, we plug in A for the first equation, using substitution

(B+60) + B = 196

2B + 60 = 196

Subtract 60 from both sides

2B = 136

Divide both sides by 2

B = 68

Plug in 68 for B in the 2nd equation

A = 68 + 60

A = 128

Checking work: 128 + 68 = 196 :D hope this helped

If an arithmetic progression satisfies U4=7 , U8=15 .Find U10​
Alja [10]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>U10 = 19</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>The sequence is </em>Ux=(x*2)-1<em />

<em>x is the coefficient to U.</em>

<em>So, </em>U10=(10*2)-1<em />

<em>Which means </em>U10=20-1<em />

<em>Which means </em>U10=19<em />

<em>And there is your answer.</em>

<em>Hope this helps. Have a nice day.</em>

What is the critical value at the 0.05 level of significance for a goodness-of-fit test if there are six categories?
9966 [12]

Answer:

The goodness of fitness test χ²with significance of level ∝= 0.05 and 5 degrees of freedom is 11.07  (One tailed test )

Step-by-step explanation:

For n=6  the degrees of freedom will be n-1 = 5 .

The goodness of fitness test χ²with significance of level ∝= 0.05 and 5 degrees of freedom is 11.07  (One tailed test )

The critical region depends on ∝ and the alternative hypothesis

a) When Ha is σ²≠σ² the critical region is

χ²  < χ²(1-∝/2)(n-1) and  χ² > χ²(1-∝/2)(n-1)   Two tailed test

( χ²  < 0.83) and ( χ²  > 0.83)

b) When Ha is σ²> σ² the critical region falls in the right tail and its value is

 χ² > χ²(∝)(n-1)   One tailed test  {11.07  (One tailed test )}

c) When Ha is σ² <σ² the critical region will be entirely in the left tail with critical value  

χ²(1-∝)(n-1)  One tailed test  (1.145)
