V = 18 x 8 x 12 = 1728 cm3 = 1728 ml = 1.729 liters
Answer:
x = - 2, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) = 18 we require to solve
3 | x - 2 | + 6 = 18 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
3 | x - 2 | = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
| x - 2 | = 4
The absolute value function always returns a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, thus
x - 2 = 4 ( add 2 to both sides )
x = 6
OR
- (x - 2) = 4
- x + 2 = 4 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
- x = 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 2
As a check substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions
x = 6 → 3|6 - 2| + 6 = 3|4| + 6 = 3(4) + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 ← True
x = - 2 → 3|- 2 - 2| + 6 = 3|-4| + 6 = 3(4) + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 ← True
Hence solutions are x = - 2, x = 6
Answer:
Percentage of balls which are red = 80%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the probability of drawing a red ball be x then the probability of drawing a white ball is 1-x.
There are 5C3 = 10 ways of getting 3 reds in 5 draws so the probability of this is 10* x^3 * (1 - x)^2.
The probability of getting 1 red in 5 draws = 5C1 * x (1-x)^4.
The first probability is 32 times the last.
So we have the equation:
10x^3(1 - x)^2 / 5x(1 - x)^4 = 32
2x^2 / (1 - x)^2 = 32
2x^2 = 32(1 -x)^2
2x^2 = 32( 1 - 2x + x^2)
2x^2 = 32 - 64x + 32x^2
30x^2 - 64x + 32 = 0
15x^2 - 32x + 16 = 0
(5x - 4)(3x - 4) = 0
x = 0.8, 1.333...
The probability must be < 1 so x = 0.8 = 80%.
I think it's the first one. Two units right and three units down.
Answer:
200 miles
Explanation:
Here map to actual to scale: 1 inch = 50 miles
- On map distance: 4 inches
To find actual distance, simply multiply map distance by scale factor
Actual Distance : 4 × 50 = 200 miles
