Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum the the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

We know that the three angles of the triangle is 100°, x° - 4, and 3x°.

The sum of 100°, x° - 4, and 3x° must equal 180°. We can turn this into the equation:

100 + x - 4 + 3x = 180

(I got rid of the degree signs because they are not necessary when finding x.)

Now, to find the value of x, we would have to solve for x in the equation 100 + x - 4 + 3x = 180.

100 + x - 4 + 3x = 180

Subtract 100 from both sides to get rid of the 100 on the left side.

x - 4 + 3x = 180 - 100

Simplify.

x - 4 + 3x = 80

Add 4 from both sides to get rid of the -4 on the left side.

x + 3x = 80 + 4

Simplify and combine like terms.

4x = 84

Divide 4 from both sides to get rid of the coefficient of 4 on the left side.

x = 84/4

Simply.

x = 21

The value of x would be 21.

x = 21

I hope you find this helpful. :)

f( 3 ) = 9 and

f( -3 ) = 9, but

f^(-1)[9] is undefined because the result can be 3 and -3

Given $a_7=125$ you can find a_6:

$a_6= \frac{125-3}{2} =61$
$a_5= \frac{61-3}{2} =29 \\ a_4= \frac{29-3}{2}=13 \\ a_3= \frac{13-3}{2} =5 \\ a_2= \frac{5-3}{2} =1 \\ a_1= \frac{1-3}{2}=-1$

Six stand-up comics, A, B, C, D, E, and F, are to perform on a single evening at a comedy club. The order of performance is

kiruha [24]

Answer:

a) 1/6

b) 1/36

c) 1/720

d) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Any of the six comics can perform in the fourth place, so there is one chance in six that Comic F is the one that performs fourth.

$P(F=4th)=1/6$

b) In this case, we have two conditions. Both are independent of each other, so the probability of both happening is the product of the probabilities of each happening individually:

$P(D=4th \&B=2nd)=P(D=4th)\cdot P(B=2nd)=(1/6)\cdot(1/6)=1/36$

c) This combination is one in all possible orders of perform. The amount of combinations of orders is n!=6!=720 possible combinations. So the probability of this specific order is:

$P(F, D, B, A, C, E)=1/720$

d) In this case, of the six possible comics performing in the last place, we calculate the probability of 2 of them being in that place. So the probability is:

$P(C=6th\,or\, E=6th)=2/6=1/3$
