Which of the following represents the correct inequality statements

Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression. <br><br> 7x−x

Alina [70]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

6x

Discussion:

7x = 7 times x

x = 1 times x

So both terms are "like" terms in x:

7x - x = (7-1)x = 6x

Thank you,

A survey is conducted to find out whether people in metropolitan areas obtain their news from television (Event T), an newspaper

MrMuchimi

Answer:

e) P ( R' | T ) = 0.62857

f) P ( T' | N ) = 0.32258

g) P ( R' | N ) = 0.70968

h) P ( T' | N&R ) = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The probability of Television as news source P ( T ) = 0.7

- The probability of Newspaper as news source P ( N ) = 0.62

- The probability of Radio as news source P ( R ) = 0.46

- The probability of Television & Newspaper as news source P (T&N) = 0.42

- The probability of Television & Radio as news source P (T&R) = 0.26

- The probability of Radio & Newspaper as news source P (R&N) = 0.18

- The probability of all 3 as news source P ( T & R & N ) = 0.03

Find:

Given that TV is a news source, what is the probability that radio is not a news source?

Given that newspaper is a news source, what is the probability that TV is not a news source?

Given that newspaper is a news source, what is the probability that radio is not a news source?

Given that both newspaper and radio are news sources, what is the probability that TV is not a news source?

Solution:

- We will first compute the individual probability of each event occurring alone.

P (Television is the only news source) = P(T) - P(T&R) - P(T&N) + P(T&N&R)

P ( Only Television ) = P ( only T ) = 0.7 - 0.42 - 0.26 + 0.03 = 0.05

P (Newspaper is the only news source) = P(N)-P(N&R)-P(T&N)+P(T&N&R)

P ( Only Newspaper ) = P ( only N ) = 0.62 - 0.18 - 0.42 + 0.03 = 0.05

P (Radio is the only news source) = P(R) - P(T&R) - P(N&R) + P(T&N&R)

P ( Only Radio ) = P ( only R ) = 0.46 - 0.26 - 0.18 + 0.03 = 0.05

- Now for part e)

We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

P ( R' | T ) = P ( R' & T ) / P ( T )

First compute the probability that next news source is not Radio provided it is already a source of TV.

P ( R' & T ) = P( only T ) + P ( only T & N ) = 0.05 + 0.42 - 0.03 = 0.44

Hence,

P ( R' | T ) = 0.44 / 0.7

P ( R' | T ) = 0.62857

- Now for part f)

We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

P ( T' | N ) = P ( T' & N ) / P ( N )

First compute the probability that next news source is not TV provided it is already a source of Newspaper.

P ( T' & N ) = P( only N ) + P ( only R & N ) = 0.05 + 0.18 - 0.03 = 0.2

Hence,

P ( T' | N ) = 0.2 / 0.62

P ( T' | N ) = 0.32258

- Now for part g)

We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

P ( R' | N ) = P ( R' & N ) / P ( N )

First compute the probability that next news source is not Radio provided it is already a source of Newspaper.

P ( R' & N ) = P( only N ) + P ( only T & N ) = 0.05 + 0.42 - 0.03 = 0.44

Hence,

P ( R' | N ) = 0.44 / 0.62

P ( R' | N ) = 0.70968

- Now for part h)

We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

P ( T' | N&R ) = P ( T' & N & R) / P ( N & R )

First compute the probability that next news source is not TV provided it is already a source of both radio and Newspaper.

P ( T' & N & R) = P ( only N & R ) = 0.18 - 0.03 = 0.15

Hence,

P ( T' | N&R ) = 0.15 / 0.18

P ( T' | N&R ) = 5/6

Y = x² – 4 y = 2r + 4<br><br>Solve algebraicallu for the solutions of equations below.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, the first step is to rewrite this equation in "vertex form." You can search that up but it's basically just (h/k).

y = ( x − 1) 2 + 3

Now, we are going to use the vertex form, "y = a (x - h)2 + k, to get the values of a, h, and k.

By using the form we get 1 for the value a, 1 for the value h, and 3 for the value k.

1 = a

1 = h

3 = k

Becuse the value of a is positive, the parabola opens up! (A parabola is the U shaped line in a graph, so that opens up.)

Now, we find the vertex (h,k)

which is (1,3)

Now we find the p from the vertex to the focus. (vertext the top, focus one of the points.)

Follow this formula to find the distance from the vertex to a focus by using this formula

1/4a.

Now we just gonna substitue 1 for a, since we know that 1 equals a above ^

1/4 * 1

Solving that, we got a nice little 1/4.

Next we find the focus

"Find the focus.

The focus of a parabola can be found by adding p to the y-coordinate k if the parabola opens up or down.

(h,k+p)

Substitute the known values of h, p, and k into the formula and simplify.

(1,134)

Find the axis of symmetry by finding the line that passes through the vertex and the focus.

x=1

Find the directrix.

y=114

Use the properties of the parabola to analyze and graph the parabola.

Direction: Opens Up

Vertex: (1,3)

Focus: (1,134)

Axis of Symmetry: x=1

Directrix: y=114

Select a few x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values. The x values should be selected around the vertex.

xy−1704132437

Graph the parabola using its properties and the selected points.

Direction: Opens Up

Vertex: (1,3)

Focus: (1,134)

Axis of Symmetry: x=1

Directrix: y=114

xy−17041324"

What's 5and24/10 divided by 4?

Alchen [17]

First, convert 5 and 24/10 into a mixed fraction:

5 and 24/10 = 74/10

Now, divide 74/10 by 4:

74/10 ÷ 4 = 74/10 × 1/4
  = 74/40
  = 37/20
  = 1 and 17/20

(Remember that dividing requires you to reciprocate 4)

Hope this helps!

You’re instructed to prepare for a promotional candle sale you will use to test the popularity of the two redesigned candles. Wi

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

THE SMALLEST FORMS:

- smallest prism ---> the cube with all sides 2 ==> the volume is 2*2*2 = 8 cm^3

- smallest pyramid number one ---> the pyramid with base sides 2 and the height also 2 ==> the volume is (1/3)*2*2*2 = 8/3 cm^3

- smallest pyramid number two ---> the pyramid with base sides 2 and the lateral sides also 2 ==> the radius of the base is sqrt(2) ==> [pyramid_height]^2 = [lateral_side]^2 - [base_radius]^2 = 2^2 - sqrt(2)^2 = 4 - 2 = 2 ==> pyramid_height = sqrt(2) ==> the volume is (1/3)*2*2*sqrt(2) = 4*sqrt(2)/3 cm^3

- smallest cylinder --> the cylinder of diameter 2 and height also 2 ==> the radius is diameter/2 = 2/2 = 1 ==> the volume is pi*(radius^2)*height = pi*(1^2)*2 = pi*1*2 = 2*pi cm^3

The lesser volume is the volume of the smallest pyramid number two. ==> it's wax cost is approximately 0.0075 * 4 * 1.42 / 3 $ per candle = 0.014 $ per candle ==> the total cost per candle is approximately 0.014 + 1.6 = 1.614 $ per candle.

THE BIGGEST FORMS:

- biggest prism ---> the cube with all sides 10 ==> the volume is 10*10*10 = 1000 cm^3

- biggest pyramid number one ---> the pyramid with base sides 10 and the height also 10 ==> the volume is (1/3)*10*10*10 = 1000/3 cm^3

- biggest pyramid number two ---> the pyramid with base sides 10 and the lateral sides also 10 ==> the radius of the base is 5*sqrt(2) ==> [pyramid_height]^2 = [lateral_side]^2 - [base_radius]^2 = 10^2 - [5*sqrt(2)]^2 = 100 - 50 = 50 ==> pyramid_height = 5*sqrt(2) ==> the volume is (1/3)*10*10*5*sqrt(2) = 500*sqrt(2)/3 cm^3

- biggest cylinder --> the cylinder of diameter 10 and height also 10 ==> the radius is diameter/2 = 10/2 = 5 ==> the volume is pi*(radius^2)*height = pi*(5^2)*10 = pi*25*10 = 250*pi cm^3

The bigger volume is the volume of the biggest prism (the side-10 cube). ==> it's wax cost is 0.0075 * 1000 $ per candle = 7.5 $ per candle ==> the total cost per candle is 7.5 + 1.6 = 9.1 $ per candle

The range of the cost is the interval [1.614 ; 9.1]. Depending on other prices on the market, you greed, and other factors you will put a profit margin: maybe 20% of the cost ; maybe a fixed margin like 5$. So the price per candle will be the cost per candle plus the profit margin per candle.

If I were to choose the base length I would have to say 6 because it is the arithmetic mean between 2 and 10: (2+10)/2 = 12/2 = 6. 2cm is too small, and 10cm is too big.

Also if you start with a rectangle of length 10 and width 2 and you have to find the rectangle with the largest area by being allowed to increase the width and decrease the width with the same quantity you get this:

Area of the new rectangle is (10-x)(2+x) = -x^2 + 8x + 20 = -x^2 + 8x -16 + 36 = -(x^2 - 2*x*4 + 4^2) + 36 = -(x-4)^2 + 36 = 36 - (x-4)^2 which has the maximum value of 36 because out of 36 you subtract a positive value. You get the maximum when (x-4)^2 = 0 ==> x-4=0 ==> x=4

The new length is 10-4=6 and the new width is 2+4=6.

Next I would choose the height of the prism (I like prisms :P) to be [the_golden_ratio]*[base_side] which is approximately 1.618 * 6 = 9.708 which I would round up to 10. ==> The volume would be 6*6*10 = 360 cm^3. ==> the cost would be 0.0075*360 + 1.6 = 2.7 + 1.6 = 4.3 $ per candle. And because my candle is so perfect I'd put the profit margin to be 5.69 $ per candle so I can proudly show it in the store with the price of 4.3 + 5.69 = 9.99 $ :)
