Answer:

x= 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x- 5 = 1

first you have to move the constant or in this case the 5 to the other side to isolate x so to do that you have to ad 5 from both sides, that way itll cancel out from the left and add on the right

3x= 5

now, to isolate x, we have to divide by 3, that way you get

x= 5/3

The real answer is x= 2
not 5/3

If you are factoring it you can factor it into (x+5)^2

Using Unit Rates to compare Ratios continued

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Brandon

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Branden and Pete each play running back. Branden carries the ball $75$ times for $550$ yards, and Pete has $42$ carries for $380$ yards.

TO FIND: Who runs farther per carry.

SOLUTION:

Total yards traveled by Brandon $=550\text{yards}$

No. of times ball carried by Brandon $=75\text{ times}$

Average yards per carry for Brandon $=\frac{\text{total yards traveled}}{\text{number of times ball carried}}$

$=\frac{550}{75}$

$=\frac{22}{3}\text{ yards per carry}$

$=7.33\text{ yards per carry}$

Total yards traveled by Pete $=380\text{ yards}$

No. of times ball carried by Pete $=42\text{ times}$

Average yards per carry for Pete $=\frac{\text{total yards traveled}}{\text{number of times ball carried}}$

$=\frac{380}{42}$

≅ $9\text{ yards per carry}$

As the number of yards per carry is higher for Brandon , therefore he runs farther per carry.

Suppose the weights of the Boxers at this club are Normally distributed with a mean of 166 pounds and a standard deviation of 5.

lesya [120]

Answer:

0.1994 is the required probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 166 pounds

Standard Deviation, σ = 5.3 pounds

Sample size, n = 20

We are given that the distribution of weights is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

Standard error due to sampling =

$=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{5.3}{\sqrt{20}} = 1.1851$

P(sample of 20 boxers is more than 167 pounds)

$P( x > 167) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{167 - 166}{1.1851}) = P(z > 0.8438)$

$= 1 - P(z \leq 0.8438)$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(x > 167) = 1 - 0.8006= 0.1994 = 19.94\%$

0.1994 is the probability that the mean weight of a random sample of 20 boxers is more than 167 pounds

Describe five ways to represent a function ?

Over [174]

1. A function can be represented verbally. For example, the circumference of a square is four times one of its sides.

2. A function can be represented algebraically. For example, 3x+6 3 x + 6.

3.A function can be represented numerically.

4. A function can be represented graphically.

I only found four, hopefully this helps.
