Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5 = 10
you minus the 5
2x = 5
you divide both sides by 2
x = 5
Answer:
6 (19 x - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 6×9 x + 18×9 x - 6
-6×9 = -54:
6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x + -54 x + 18×9 x - 6
18×9 = 162:
6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 54 x + 162 x - 6
Grouping like terms, 6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 54 x + 162 x - 6 = (-3 x - 54 x + 162 x) - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6):
(-3 x - 54 x + 162 x) - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6)
-3 x - 54 x + 162 x = 105 x:
105 x - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6)
6 - 6 = 0:
105 x - 3 (4 - 3 x)
-3 (4 - 3 x) = 9 x - 12:
9 x - 12 + 105 x
Grouping like terms, 105 x + 9 x - 12 = (105 x + 9 x) - 12:
(105 x + 9 x) - 12
105 x + 9 x = 114 x:
114 x - 12
Factor 6 out of 114 x - 12:
Answer: 6 (19 x - 2)
You can compute both the mean and second moment directly using the density function; in this case, it's

Then the mean (first moment) is
![E[X]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty x\,f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac1{80}\int_{670}^{750}x\,\mathrm dx=710](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BX%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20x%5C%2Cf_X%28x%29%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dx%3D%5Cfrac1%7B80%7D%5Cint_%7B670%7D%5E%7B750%7Dx%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dx%3D710)
and the second moment is
![E[X^2]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty x^2\,f_X(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac1{80}\int_{670}^{750}x^2\,\mathrm dx=\frac{1,513,900}3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BX%5E2%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20x%5E2%5C%2Cf_X%28x%29%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dx%3D%5Cfrac1%7B80%7D%5Cint_%7B670%7D%5E%7B750%7Dx%5E2%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dx%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%2C513%2C900%7D3)
The second moment is useful in finding the variance, which is given by
![V[X]=E[(X-E[X])^2]=E[X^2]-E[X]^2=\dfrac{1,513,900}3-710^2=\dfrac{1600}3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%5BX%5D%3DE%5B%28X-E%5BX%5D%29%5E2%5D%3DE%5BX%5E2%5D-E%5BX%5D%5E2%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%2C513%2C900%7D3-710%5E2%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1600%7D3)
You get the standard deviation by taking the square root of the variance, and so
![\sqrt{V[X]}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1600}3}\approx23.09](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7BV%5BX%5D%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cdfrac%7B1600%7D3%7D%5Capprox23.09)
The blanks are weird. I don't understand them!
