¿Cuántas soluciones tiene la ecuación 2 + 6 (x - 4) = 3x - 18 + 3x?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

x is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 6(x - 4) = 3x - 18 + 3x

Open the bracket

2 + 6x - 24 = 3x - 18 + 3x

collect the like terms

6x -3x - 3x = -18 +24 - 2

0x = 4

x = 4/0

x is undefined

How do you get the slope-intercept form for -2x+3y=15? Please show steps and explain
lukranit [14]

To convert an equation to slope intercept form, you have to isolate the y variable.

-2x + 3y = 15

Add 2x to both sides.

3y = 2x + 15

Divide all terms by 3.

<h3>y = 1.5x + 5 is the original equation in slope-intercept form.</h3>

I hope this answers your question!

The U.S. Census Bureau announced that the median sales price in 2014 for new homes was $282,800 and the mean sales price was $34
victus00 [196]

Answer:

a) 0.9964

b) 0.3040

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

standard deviation =  $90,000

Mean sales price =$345,800

sample mean =  $370,000

Total number of sample = 100

calculate z score for [/tex](\bar x = 370000)[/tex]

z = \frac{\bar x - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{370000 - 345800}{\frac{90000}{\sqrt{100}}}

z = 2.689

P(x<370000) = P(Z<2.689)

FROM STANDARD NORMAL DISTRIBUTION TABLE FOR Z P(Z<2.689) = 0.9964

B)

calculate z score for (\bar x = 350000)

z = \frac{\bar x - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{350000 - 345800}{\frac{90000}{\sqrt{100}}}

z = 2.133

P(350000 \leq \bar x \leq 365000) = P(0.467 \leq Z\leq 2.133) = P(Z\leq 2.133) - P(Z\leq 0.467)

FROM NORMAL DISTRIBUTION TABLE Z VALUE FOR

P(Z\leq 2.133) = 0.9836

P(Z\leq 0.467) = 0.6796

SO,  = 0.9836 - 0.6796 = 0.3040

What values of a and b make the equation true? StartRoot 648 EndRoot = StartRoot 2 Superscript a Baseline times 3 Superscript b
kramer

Option C: a=3, b=4 is the value of a and b

Explanation:

Given that the expression \sqrt{648}=\sqrt{2^a\times3^b}

We need to determine the value of a and b

Let us consider the term \sqrt{648} and take the prime factorization of the term 648

Thus, we have,

648 divides by 2,

648=2 \cdot 324

324 divides by 2,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 162

162 divides by 2,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 81

81 divides by 3,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 27

27 divides by 3,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 9

9 divides by 3,

648=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3

Thus, we have,

\sqrt{648}=\sqrt{2^{3} \cdot 3^{4}}

Therefore, equating the powers of 2 and 3, we get,

a=3, b=4

Hence, the value of a and b is 3 and 4

Thus, Option C is the correct answer.
