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

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.

You will first find the unit rate which is single in four hours so then multiply by triple which is 3 and then you get triple will be in 12 hours

A recent study asked U. S. Adults to name 10 historic events that occurred during their lifetime that have had the greatest impa

Nadusha1986 [10]

Using the z-distribution, as we are working with a proportion, it is found that the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all U. S. Adults who would include the 9/11 attacks on their list of 10 historic events is (0.7458, 0.7942). It means that we are 99% sure that the true proportion for all U.S. adults is between these two bounds.

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which:

$\pi$ is the sample proportion.

z is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are:

$z = 2.575, n = 2000, \pi = 0.77$

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.77(0.23)}{2000}} = 0.7458$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.77(0.23)}{2000}} = 0.7942$

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all U. S. Adults who would include the 9/11 attacks on their list of 10 historic events is (0.7458, 0.7942). It means that we are 99% sure that the true proportion for all U.S. adults is between these two bounds.

Which of the following changes will always be true for an exothermic process?

Ivenika [448]

Given that I no not see any explanation in the previos answer, I think you can benefit of this.

Exothermic refers only to the fact that the reaction releases energy in the form of heat when occurs. So, the enthalpy is higher at start and lower and the end.

Seen in this way, you can deduct that the change in enthalpy is negative, which is what the third option says.

Find the common ratio r for the geometric sequence and use r to find the next three terms. Enter your answer to four decimal pla

Juliette [100K]

Answer: The next three terms =2.56, - 1.024 and 0.4096

Step-by-step explanation:

Common Ratio of a Geometric sequence, R is calculated as

=a2/a1 = -40/100=-0.4

or a3/a2=16/ -40 = -0.4

such that the next three terms are

5th term = -6.4 x -0.4=2.56

6th term= 2.56 x -0.4 =-1.024

7TH term= -1.024 x -0.4=0.4096

What is 82,119 rounded to the nearest ten thousand?

Stels [109]

80,000.
To round up to the nearest ten thousand, we would see if the next lower place value has a amount either 5 or higher or 4 or lower.
If it’s five or higher, we round up.
If it’s four or lower, we round down.
We can see that the number in the ten thousands place is 8. The number in the place value after 8 is 2.
2<5 so we round down.
The answer is 80,000.
Hope this helps!
