Answer:

5.5

Step-by-step explanation

18-7x= -20.5

-7x=-20.5-18

7x=38.5

x=38.5/7=5.5

Answer

x = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equation up as 18 - 7x = -20.5

Subtract 18 from both sides of the equation. 18-18 cancels out leaving you with -7x. -20.5 - 18 = -38.5 .

The new equation is -7x = -38.5 .

Divide both sides by -7. -7 cancels out leaving you with x and -38.5/ -7 = 5.5 .

To check your answer plug 5.5 into the equation. 18 - 7(5.5)= -20.5 . 7(5.5) is  38.5 . 18 - 38.5 = -20.5

A group of n people enter an elevator in a building with k floors. Each person independently selects a floor uniformly at random
____ [38]

Answer:

Hence the person stop at floor by at least one person will be

E(X)=(summation from K=1 to k)[1-{(k-1)/k}^n]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

There are n peoples and k floors in a building.

Selects floor with 1/k probability .

To find :

Elevator stop at each floor by at least one person.

Solution:

Now

let K= number of floor at which at least one person will be stopping.

For getting E(X)

consider a variable Ak =1 if a least one person get of the elevator

and values for k=1,2,3.....k

K=(summation From k=1 to k)Ak

E(K)=((summation From k=1 to k) E[Ak]

=(summation From k=1 to k)[1-{(k-1/k)^n

Hence the person stop at floor by at least one person will be

E(K)=(summation from K=1 to k)[1-{(k-1)/k}^n]

Which will result in a difference of squares?
otez555 [7]

Expanding the given expressions using Foil:

1)(–7x + 4)(–7x + 4) =7x^{2}-28x-28x+16=49x^{2}-56x+16

2) (–7x + 4)(4 – 7x)=-28x+49x^{2}+16-28x=49x^{2}-56x+16.

3)(–7x + 4)(–7x – 4)=49x^{2}+28x-28x-16=49x^{2}-16.

4)(–7x + 4)(7x – 4)=49x^{2}+28x+28x-16=49x^{2}+56x-16.

The third option that is (–7x + 4)(–7x – 4) is difference of two squares.
