1) -4(12-3)+5(12)=24
-48+12+60=24
24=24
Therefore x=12 
2.) -4(x-3)+5x=24
     -4x+12+5x=24
     -4x+5x=24-12
      x=12

I need help on this question, think any of you guys could help?

Answer:

We need to find the circumference, and in order to find the circumference we must know the formula for it.

Formula for circumference of a circle;

a = 2πr

Where π is the pi(3.14 or 22/7), and r is the radius which is half of the diameter.

Since we are given the diameter, we need to find the radius. So 1/2 of the diameter (26 x 1/2) = is 13

Now we just plug in the actual values in the formula:

a = 2πr

a = 2 x 3.14 x 13

a = <u>18.84 feet</u>

But now, we need to find how many revolutions it would take to get to 500 feet.

So we divide 500 feet by 18.84 feet;

500/18.84 = 26.53, around 27 revolutions.

6 high school seniors choose from among 20 quotes for their yearbook. What is the probability that at least 2 of them choose the
shusha [124]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem, we have that:

  • There are 6 students, hence n = 6.
  • There are 20 quotes, hence the probability of each being chosen is p = 1/20 = 0.05.

The probability of one quote being chosen at least two times is given by:

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)

In which:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1).

Then:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.05)^{0}.(0.95)^{6} = 0.7351

P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.05)^{1}.(0.95)^{5} = 0.2321

Then:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.7351 + 0.2321 = 0.9672.

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.9672 = 0.0328

0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.

An energy bar company manufactures peanut butter and chocolate bars.
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

sold 120 chocolate bars

sold 140 peanut butter bars

Step-by-step explanation:

x = peanut butter bars

y = chocolate bars

x + y = 260, total lbs

0.25x + 0.30y = 71, money

solve double variable equation

multiply -4 on both sides for 2nd equation

-x + -1.2y = -284

add both equations together

-0.2y = -24

y = 120

x = 260 - 120

x = 140

sold 120 chocolate bars

sold 140 peanut butter bars

Each year, Kipp raises money by participating in the Walk for Breast Cancer. Last year, Mr. Madrid walked at a pace of 12 miles
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
A.

The rate is 12:2

B.

Set up a proportion:

12/2 = x/5

Multiply 5 to both sides:

60/2 = x

Divide:

30 = x

So he will walk 30 miles in 5 hours.

C.

To find out, we can divide 12 / 2.

12 / 2 = 6 miles per hour
