To solve this equation, we are going to isolate the variable x.  To do this, we are going to begin by adding x to both sides because this will cancel out the negative x on the right side of the equation.

x + 2 + x = -x + x - 2
When we combine like terms, we get:
2x + 2 = -2
Next, we will try to continue to isolate the variable by subtracting 2 from each side to get the 2x term on the left by itself.
2x + 2 -2 = -2 -2 
When we combine like terms, we get:
2x = -4
Finally, to get x by itself we must divide by 2 to undo the multiplication of the coefficient of the term 2x.
2x/2 = -4/2
When we perform the division, we get:
x = -2
Therefore, x = -2.
We can check this answer by plugging it back into the original equation.  Our answer is verified because 0=0.
Your answer is that x = -2.
Hope this helps!

As Jackson built a square fence around his garden, he wondered how much he would have to pay if he increased the length of each
Rom4ik [11]
A good function for this situation would be

c = 4(3m)


C is the cost of it all, m is the number of meters. The 3 is how many dollars it costs for each individual meter, and the 4 is how the length would need to be applied to all four sides of the fence. Hope this helped!

1.Famous basketball player Michael Jordan had a free throw percentage of 0.83. (He made 83% of his free throw shots.) Assume tha
MissTica

Michael Jordan's Freethrow, the population of the 6 countries and the distribution of the uninsured drivers are illustrations of probabilities

<h3>1. Michael Jordan Freethrow</h3>

The given parameter is:

p = 83% -- the percentage of free throws he made

<u>Probability that he misses his 6th throw </u>

The probability that he misses his 6th throw is:

P = P(He made the first 5 throws) * P(He lost the 6th)

This gives

P = (83%)^5 * (1 - 83%)^1

P = 0.0670

<u>Expected number of miss</u>

The expected number till he misses the first free throw is:

E(x) = np

This gives

E(x) = 6 * 83%

E(x) = 4.98

Approximate

E(x) = 5

Hence, the probability that he misses his 6th throw is 0.0670 and the expected number till he misses the first free throw is 5

<h3>2. Country Populations</h3>

The given parameters are:

Average population = 268.35 million

Standard deviation = 370.43 million

<u>The z-scores for the United States, Egypt, and Mexico</u>

This is calculated as:

z = (x - \mu)/\sigma

So, we have:

US = (332 million - 268.35 million)/ 370.43 million

US = 0.17

Egypt = (104 million - 268.35 million)/ 370.43 million

Egypt = -0.44

Mexico = (128 million - 268.35 million)/ 370.43 million

Mexico = -0.38

<u>The countries from the smallest to the largest </u>

By comparing the z-score of the countries, the order of the countries are:

Egypt, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, United States and India

The countries are ranked that way because the higher the z-score, the higher the population

<h3>3. Uninsured drivers</h3>

The given parameter is:

p = 12.6% -- the percentage of uninsured drivers

<u>Probability that exactly 5 drivers of 30 are uninsured</u>

This is calculated as:

P(x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)

So, we have:

P(5) = 30C5 * (12.6%)^5 * (1 - 12.6%)^(30-5)

Evaluate the product

P(5) = 0.1561

<u>Probability that the next uninsured driver is the 7th</u>

This is calculated as:

P = P(First 6 are insured) * P(7th is unisured)

This gives

P = (1 - 12.6%)^6 * (12.6%)^1

P = 0.0562

The probability that exactly 5 drivers of 30 are uninsured is 0.1561, and the probability that the next uninsured driver is the 7th is 0.0562

Noelle ran 4 1/2 miles in the morning and 3 1/4 miles in the evening. How far did Noelle run that day?
KIM [24]
You just add all the numbers together:
3 1/8+ 4 1/2+ 4 1/4
=25/8+9/2+17/4
=25/8+36/8+34/8
=95/8
=11 7/8

Ugh.. did you type in the numbers correctly? My guess would be it was meant to be B tho :)

stepladder [879]

Answer:

<u>Domain</u>: input values (x-values)

<u>Range</u>: output values (y-values)

<u>Increasing function</u>:  the average rate of change is positive

<u>Decreasing function</u>: the average rate of change is negative

<u>Constant function</u>: y-values do not vary, regardless of x-values

<h3><u>Graph 1</u></h3>

From inspection of the graph, 2 squares = 1 unit.

Domain: [-2, 3]

Range:  [-2, 2]

Increasing function: (-2, 0)

Decreasing function:  (0, 3)

<h3><u>Graph 2</u></h3>

From inspection of the graph, 2 squares = 1 unit.

Domain: [-2, 3]

Range: [-2.5, 2]

Increasing function: (-2, -1) ∪ (1.5, 3)

Decreasing function:  (-1, 1.5)

<h3><u>Graph 3</u></h3>

From inspection of the graph, 2 squares = 1 unit.

Domain: [-2, 3]

Range: [-1, 2]

Increasing function: (-2, -1)

Constant: (-1, 1)

Decreasing function:  (1, 3)
