Let's solve this by substitution.  Note that y is defined:  y = 2x - 2.  Subst. 2x - 2 for y in the other equation:  -6x + 3(2x - 2) = 18.

Then -6x + 6x - 6 = 18.  Unfortunately, -6 does not equal 18, so there is no solution.  The graphs of these two lines are parallel.

-6x + 3(2x-2)= 18

-6x + 6x - 6 = 18

-6 ¥ 18
no solution

Molly is wrapping up parts of sandwiches to sell at her sandwich cart. She cuts each sandwich into fourths and then wraps each f
Alisiya [41]

her mistake was that she was counting all the fourths as a whole sandwich when she really wraped up four sandwiches in total because 16 divided by 4 which is how many she cut it up into is 4 whole sandwiches

What is the measure of x?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(x+5) *x = 6^2

x^2 +5x = 36

Subtract 36 from each side

x^2 +5x - 36 = 0

Factor

( x-4) (x+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

x-4 = 0  x+9 =0

x = 4  x=-9

Cannot be negative since that is negative length

x=4

mitzi has a rectangular swimming pool. she fills it with water to a depth of 5 feet. the water has a volume of 1200 cubic feet.
ANTONII [103]
To figure out the size of a rectangle that would represent the swimming pool, you will use the formula for volume of a rectangle or prism to solve for the area of the base.

V = Bh
1200 = 5B
B = 240 square feet

To get an area of 240 ft.², you could use the dimensions 10' x 24'. Another possibility would be 8' x 30'.

The diameter of a particle of contamination (in micrometers) is modeled with the probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 for x
natulia [17]

Answer:

a) 0.96

b) 0.016

c) 0.018

d) 0.982

e) x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the Probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 where x > 1.

<em>Firstly we will calculate the general probability that of P(a < X < b) </em>

       P(a < X < b) =  \int_{a}^{b} \frac{2}{x^{3}} dx = 2\int_{a}^{b} x^{-3} dx

                            = 2[ \frac{x^{-3+1} }{-3+1}]^{b}_a   dx    { Because \int_{a}^{b} x^{n} dx = [ \frac{x^{n+1} }{n+1}]^{b}_a }

                            = 2[ \frac{x^{-2} }{-2}]^{b}_a = \frac{2}{-2} [ x^{-2} ]^{b}_a

                            = -1 [ b^{-2} - a^{-2}  ] = \frac{1}{a^{2} } - \frac{1}{b^{2} }

a) Now P(X < 5) = P(1 < X < 5)  {because x > 1 }

     Comparing with general probability we get,

     P(1 < X < 5) = \frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{5^{2} } = 1 - \frac{1}{25} = 0.96 .

b) P(X > 8) = P(8 < X < ∞) = 1/8^{2} - 1/∞ = 1/64 - 0 = 0.016

c) P(6 < X < 10) = \frac{1}{6^{2} } - \frac{1}{10^{2} } = \frac{1}{36} - \frac{1}{100 } = 0.018 .

d) P(x < 6 or X > 10) = P(1 < X < 6) + P(10 < X < ∞)

                                = (\frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{6^{2} }) + (1/10^{2} - 1/∞) = 1 - 1/36 + 1/100 + 0 = 0.982

e) We have to find x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 ;

               ⇒  P(1 < X < x) = 0.75

               ⇒  \frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{x^{2} } = 0.75

               ⇒  \frac{1} {x^{2} } = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25

               ⇒  x^{2} = \frac{1}{0.25}   ⇒ x^{2} = 4 ⇒ x = 2  

Therefore, value of x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 is 2.
