Which of the following values of x satifies the equation 2 x - 4 = 4?*

Mathematics
1 answer:
ElenaW [278]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

add 4 to both sides.

2x= 4+4

simplify 4+4=8

2x=8

divide both sides by 2.

x= 8/2

simplify 8/2 to 4.

x=4

Musya8 [376]

f(x)= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4

g(x)= 5x^3 -7x+ 4

f(x) - g(x)

= (9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4) - (5x^3 -7x+ 4)

= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4 -5x^3+ 7x -4

= (9x^3 -5x^3)+ 2x^2+ (7x -5x)+ (4-4) (combine like terms)

= 4x^3+ 2x^2+ 2x

= 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1)

The final answer is 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1).

Assume that 63% of people are left-handed. If we select 5 people at random, find the probability of each outcome described below
mash [69]

Answer:

a. 0.9931

b. 0.3423

c. 0.3907

d. 0.2670

e. 3.15

f. 1.0796

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the variable that said the number of left-handed people follow a Binomial distribution, so the probability is:

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

nCx is calculated as:

nCx=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Where x is the number of left-handed people, n is the number of people selected at random and p is the probability that a person is left--handed. So P(x) is:

P(x)=5Cx*0.63^{x}*(1-0.63)^{5-x}

Then the probabilities P(0), P(1), P(2), P(3), P(4) and P(5) are:

P(0)=5C0*0.63^{0}*(1-0.63)^{5-0}=0.0069

P(1)=5C1*0.63^{1}*(1-0.63)^{5-1}=0.0590

P(2)=5C2*0.63^{2}*(1-0.63)^{5-2}=0.2011

P(3)=5C3*0.63^{3}*(1-0.63)^{5-3}=0.3423

P(x)=5C4*0.63^{4}*(1-0.63)^{5-4}=0.2914

P(x)=5C5*0.63^{5}*(1-0.63)^{5-5}=0.0993

Then, the probability P(x≥1) that there are some lefties among the 5 people is:

P(x≥1) = P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5)

P(x≥1) = 0.0590 + 0.2011 + 0.3423 + 0.2914 + 0.0993 = 0.9931

The probability P(3) that there are exactly 3 lefties in the group is:

P(3) = 0.3423

The probability P(x≥4) that there are at least 4 lefties in the group is:

P(x≥4) = P(4) + P(5) = 0.2914 + 0.0993 = 0.3907

The probability P(x≤2) that there are no more than 2 lefties in the group is:

P(x≤2) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) = 0.0069 + 0.0590 + 0.2011 = 0.2670

On the other hand, the expected value E(x) and standard deviation S(x) of the variable that follows a binomial distribution is:

E(x)=np=5(0.63)=3.15\\S(x)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5(0.63)(1-0.63)}=1.0796

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are −2 and 6, and whose leading coefficient is 3
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

3(x + 2)(x - 6) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that if x + 2 = o then x= -2

and if x - 6 = 0,  x = 6.

Sandra throws an object straight up into the air with initial velocity of 38 ft per square from platform that is 30 ft above the
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

3 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Sandra throws an object straight up into the air with initial velocity of 38 ft per second from platform that is 30 ft above the ground.

To find the time it will take for object to hit the ground, we will use formula:  

h(t)=-16t^2+v_0t+h_0, where, v_0 represents initial velocity and h_0 represents initial height.

Upon substituting our given initial velocity and initial height, we will get:

h(t)=-16t^2+38t+30

We know that object will hit the ground, when height will be 0, so we will equate object's height equal to 0 and solve for t as:

-16t^2+38t+30=0

Divide by 2:

-8t^2+19t+15=0

Upon using quadratic formula, we will get:

t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-19\pm\sqrt{19^2-4(-8)(15)}}{2(-8)}

t=\frac{-19\pm\sqrt{361+480}}{-16}=\frac{-19\pm\sqrt{841}}{-16}

t=\frac{-19\pm29}{-16}

t=\frac{-19-29}{-16},t=\frac{-19+29}{-16}

t=\frac{-48}{-16},t=\frac{10}{-16}

t=3,t=-\frac{5}{8}

Since time cannot be negative, therefore, it will take 3 seconds for object to hit the ground.
