A) 3x+4=22

B) x=6

How to solve the equation: subtract 4 from both sides. You’re left with 3x=18. What is 18 divided by 3?

The vector (a) is a multiple of the vector (2i +3j) and (b) is a multiple of (2i+5j) The sum (a+b) is a multiple of the vector (
kow [346]

Answer:

\|a\| = 5\sqrt{13}.

\|b\| = 3\sqrt{29}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m,n, and k be scalars such that:

\displaystyle a = m\, (2\, \vec{i} + 3\, \vec{j}) = m\, \begin{bmatrix}2 \\ 3\end{bmatrix}.

\displaystyle b = n\, (2\, \vec{i} + 5\, \vec{j}) = n\, \begin{bmatrix}2 \\ 5\end{bmatrix}.

\displaystyle (a + b) = k\, (8\, \vec{i} + 15\, \vec{j}) = k\, \begin{bmatrix}8 \\ 15\end{bmatrix}.

The question states that \| a + b \| = 34. In other words:

k\, \sqrt{8^{2} + 15^{2}} = 34.

k^{2} \, (8^{2} + 15^{2}) = 34^{2}.

289\, k^{2} = 34^{2}.

Make use of the fact that 289 = 17^{2} whereas 34 = 2 \times 17.

\begin{aligned}17^{2}\, k^{2} &= 34^{2}\\ &= (2 \times 17)^{2} \\ &= 2^{2} \times 17^{2} \end{aligned}.

k^{2} = 2^{2}.

The question also states that the scalar multiple here is positive. Hence, k = 2.

Therefore:

\begin{aligned} (a + b) &= k\, (8\, \vec{i} + 15\, \vec{j}) \\ &= 2\, (8\, \vec{i} + 15\, \vec{j}) \\ &= 16\, \vec{i} + 30\, \vec{j}\\ &= \begin{bmatrix}16 \\ 30 \end{bmatrix}\end{aligned}.

(a + b) could also be expressed in terms of m and n:

\begin{aligned} a + b &= m\, (2\, \vec{i} + 3\, \vec{j}) + n\, (2\, \vec{i} + 5\, \vec{j}) \\ &= (2\, m + 2\, n) \, \vec{i} + (3\, m + 5\, n) \, \vec{j} \end{aligned}.

\begin{aligned} a + b &= m\, \begin{bmatrix}2\\ 3 \end{bmatrix} + n\, \begin{bmatrix} 2\\ 5 \end{bmatrix} \\ &= \begin{bmatrix}2\, m + 2\, n \\ 3\, m + 5\, n\end{bmatrix}\end{aligned}.

Equate the two expressions and solve for m and n:

\begin{cases}2\, m + 2\, n = 16 \\ 3\, m + 5\, n = 30\end{cases}.

\begin{cases}m = 5 \\ n = 3\end{cases}.

Hence:

\begin{aligned} \| a \| &= \| m\, (2\, \vec{i} + 3\, \vec{j})\| \\ &= m\, \| (2\, \vec{i} + 3\, \vec{j}) \| \\ &= 5\, \sqrt{2^{2} + 3^{2}} = 5 \sqrt{13}\end{aligned}.

\begin{aligned} \| b \| &= \| n\, (2\, \vec{i} + 5\, \vec{j})\| \\ &= n\, \| (2\, \vec{i} + 5\, \vec{j}) \| \\ &= 3\, \sqrt{2^{2} + 5^{2}} = 3 \sqrt{29}\end{aligned}.

A random sample of 9 wheels of cheese yielded the following weights in pounds has a sample mean of 20.90 and a sample variance o
Ronch [10]

Answer:

2.002 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 11.365

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

s represent the sample standard deviation

s^2 represent the sample variance

n=9 the sample size

Confidence=90% or 0.90

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population mean or variance lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

2) Calculating the confidence interval

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}

On this case we need to find the sample standard deviation with the following formula:

s=sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^9 (x_i -\bar x)^2}{n-1}}
The sample variance given was [tex]s^2=3.45

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=9-1=8

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of \alpha=0.1 and \alpha/2 =0.05, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical values.  

The excel commands would be: "=CHISQ.INV(0.05,8)" "=CHISQ.INV(0.95,8)". so for this case the critical values are:

\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=15.507

\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=2.732

And replacing into the formula for the interval we got:

\frac{(9)(3.45)}{15.507} \leq \sigma \frac{(9)(3.45)}{2.732}

2.002 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 11.365

Please help and explain ( Brainliest for answer!)
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

AD = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem formula: a² + b² = c² (c being the hypotenuse, the longest side of the triangle).

Using this formula, you can easily say that c²-b²=a². c=5, b=4, making the equation 5² - 4² = a ².

Expanding the formula, you'll get 25 - 16 = a².

25 - 16 = 9.

This means that 9 = a².

To find a, you need to root 9. Using a calculator, you'll know that this number is 3, meaning that AD = 3.

What is 4-2x+8+5x simplified
sveta [45]

Answer: it is 3 • (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation: We move all terms to the left:

4-2x+8-(+5x)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-2x-(+5x)+12=0

We get rid of parentheses

-2x-5x+12=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x+12=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-7x=-12

x=-12/-7

x=1+5/7We move all terms to the left:

4-2x+8-(+5x)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-2x-(+5x)+12=0

We get rid of parentheses

-2x-5x+12=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x+12=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-7x=-12

x=-12/-7

x=1+5/7
