Answer: x=   - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

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

 4x+8   =  3x-6

  -3x         -3x

   x+8   =  -6

     -8    =  -8

         x = -14

Answer:

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

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

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Distribute: 4x + 8 = 3x - 6
  2. Subtract 3x on both sides: x + 8 = -6
  3. Subtract 8 on both sides: x = -14

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

4(-14 + 2) = 3(-14 - 2)

4(-12) = 3(-16)

-48 = -48

Suppose that f(x) is the (continuous) probability density function for heights of American men, in inches, and suppose that f(69
anastassius [24]

Answer:

(a) 7.6%

(b) 46.2%    42.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)According to the definition of Continuous probability distribution

f(x) = \frac{d}{dx}F(x)

f(x) = \frac{F(x + h) - F(x - h)}{(x + h) - (x - h)}

f(69) = \frac{F(69 + 0.2) - F(69 - 0.2)}{0.4}

⇒ 0.19 × 0.4 = F(69.2) - F(68.8)

⇒ F(69.2) - F(68.8) = 0.076

⇒ 7.6%

(b) Given F(69) = 0.5

f(x) = \frac{d}{dx}F(x)

f(x) = \frac{F(x) - F(x - h)}{x - (x - h)}

f(69) = \frac{F(69) - F(69 - 0.2)}{0.2}

⇒ 0.19 × 0.2 = F(69) - F(68.8)

⇒ F(68.8) = 0.5 - 0.038 = 0.462

⇒ 46.2%

f(x) = \frac{d}{dx}F(x)

f(x) = \frac{F(x) - F(x - h)}{x - (x - h)}

f(69) = \frac{F(69) - F(69 - 0.4)}{0.4}

⇒ 0.19 × 0.4 = F(69) - F(68.8)

⇒ F(68.8) = 0.5 - 0.076 = 0.424

⇒ 42.4%
