Could someone help me answer this? Solve -2log8(x + 1) = -8. Thanks so much!

1 answer:

8 0

Step one, divide both sides by -2
log8(x+1)=4

if the base is 10, and the 8 is together with (x+1): (cannot tell from the way it is written)
8(x+1)=10^4=10000
x+1=1250
x=1249

if the 8 is a base,
8^4=(x+1)
x+1=4096
x=4095

Empirical rule (statistics)Help please!!!

emmasim [6.3K]

The empirical rule you're referring to is the 68-95-99.7 rule, which asserts that for a normal (bell-shaped) distribution, approximately 68% of the distribution lies within 1 standard deviation of the mean; 95% lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and 99.7% lies within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Let $X$ be the random variable denoting vehicle speeds along this highway. We want to find $P(61$ . To use the rule, we need to rephrase this probability in terms of the mean and standard deviation.

Notice that $61=70-9=70-3\cdot3$ , and $79=70+9=70+3\cdot3$ . In other words, 61 and 79 both lie exactly 3 standard deviations away from the mean, so $P(61$ .

The ordered pairs would be (x-2, -y).

Translating a graph to the right subtracts the number of units from the x-coordinate.

Reflecting across the x-axis negates the y-coordinate.

Differentiating with respect to time

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

$l = 30 \ cm\\w = l\\\frac{dl}{dt} = 2 \ cm/h\\h = 20 \ cm\\\frac{dh}{dt} = 3 \ cm/h$

Step 2: Differentiate

Rewrite [VRP]: $V = l^2h$
Differentiate [Basic Power Rule]: $\frac{dV}{dt} = 2l\frac{dl}{dt} \frac{dh}{dt}$

Step 3: Solve for Rate

Substitute: $\frac{dV}{dt} = 2(30 \ cm)(2 \ cm/h)(3 \ cm/h)$
Multiply: $\frac{dV}{dt} = 360 \ cm^3/h$

Here this tells us that our volume is decreasing (ice melting) at a rate of 360 cm³ per hour.

Consider the baggage check-in process of a small airline. Check-in data indicates that from 9am to 10am, 220 passengers checked

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

3.6 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the data given in the question, between 9 and 10 AM, 220 passengers have checked in which means that the check-in rate is 3.6 passengers per minute. If the average number of passengers waiting for check-in is 32 and if we assume that the check-in rate is constant throughout the day, then the average passenger had to wait in line for 3.6 minutes.
