I am trying to figure out what x is for this quadratic equation, could you help? The exact question on the assignment is

1 answer:

7 0

There seems to be something missing. Either a missing diagram or more context to the problem, or perhaps more instructions. I'm not exactly sure.

Anyways, if you simply need to solve the equation for x, then...
3x+7 = 5x-9
3x+7-3x = 5x-9-3x ... subtract 3x from both sides
7 = 2x-9
7+9 = 2x-9+9 ... add 9 to both sides
16 = 2x
2x = 16
2x/2 = 16/2 ... divide both sides by 2
x = 8

I'm assuming after this point, you'll use x somehow to determine the length of segment AD. Unfortunately there isn't enough info provided to do that, but I'll let you take over from here.

The level of nitrogen oxides (NOX) in the exhaust after 50,000 miles or fewer of driving of cars of a particular model varies No

Greeley [361]

Answer:

For a level of 0.0174 or more of nitrogen oxide, the probability of fleet is 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 0.02 g/mi

Standard Deviation, σ = 0.01 g/mi

Sample size, n = 81

We are given that the distribution of level of nitrogen oxides is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.
