Answer:

It is equivalent to 15x – 3)(2x + 1) = 0. False

It is equivalent to (5x – 3)(2x + 1) = 0 True

Either x=-1/2 or 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the equation 5x (2x + 1) - 3(2x + 1) = 0.

It is equivalent to 15x – 3)(2x + 1) = 0. False

It is equivalent to (5x – 3)(2x + 1) = 0 True

When you take pull-out (2x+1), you will be left with (5x-3)

5x (2x + 1) - 3(2x + 1) = 0.

(2x+1)(5x-3)=0

Either 2x + 1 = 0

2x = -1

Divide both-side of the equation by 2

2x/2 = -1/2

x= -1/2

5x-3 =0

5x = 3

Divide both-side of the equation by 5

5x/5 = 3/5

x = 5/3

Either x=-1/2 or 5/3

anastassius [24]

Answer:40

Step-by-step explanation:

On a fair die, each face has a 1/6 chance of landing on each toss.

5 and 6 are the only faces greater than 4, therefore there is a 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 chance of the die landing on a number greater than 4 for each toss.

Multiply the probability by the total number of tosses to get the number of tosses that are greater than 4.

120 * (2/6) = 240/6 = 40

Approximately 40 tosses will land on a number greater than 4.

If cos A = 3 over 11, then which of the following is correct?

ziro4ka [17]

Answer: The answer is (a) sec A = 11 over 3.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Cosine of an angle 'A' is 3 over 11,

i.e.,

$\cos A=\dfrac{3}{11}.$

And we need to find which one of the given four options is correct.

We have the following relations between cosine, secant and cosecant of an angle from trigonometry.

$\sec A=\dfrac{1}{\cos A}~~\textup{and}~~\csc A=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\cos^2 A}}.$

Therefore,

$\sec A=\dfrac{11}{3}$

and

$\csc A=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{9}{121}}}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{112}{121}}}=\dfrac{11}{4\sqrt 7}.$

Thus, the correct option is (a) sec A = 11 over 3.
