How do you this 2 x 2 = 3 +

2 answers:

6 0

First, fill in the space with a variable; I like to use x. 2(2)=3+x. Now, solve 2(2). 2 times 2 equals 4. 4=3+x.Now, subtract 3 from both sides. 1=x. That's your answer.

If you want to start getting comfortable with 'Algebra', try it like this: A big math rule that you'll use for the rest of your life is: When you see an 'equals' sign, you can do anything you want to the stuff on one side of it, but whatever you do on one side, you must do exactly the same thing to the other side. Let's do your problem that way. Right now, you have (2 x 2) = 3 + ? . . . Let's subtract 3 from each side. You'll see how useful that can be. When you do that, your question says (2 x 2)-3 = ? . . . . Look at the left side. You know that 2x2 is 4 . So the question says 4 - 3 = ? . How much is 4 - 3 ? My calculator says it's ' 1 ' . So now your question says 1 = ? and there's the answer. ... Once you subtracted 3 from each side, it practically solved itself.

A square has a side length of 5 and 1/4 inches what is the area of a square

padilas [110]

Answer: 27.5625 or 27.6

Explanation:
A square has even side lengths so each side equals 5 1/4 or 5.25. So you take two sides and multiply them together. In other words, 5.25•5.25. Then you get roughly 27.6 rounded

16. A telemarketer makes six phone calls per hour and is able to make a sale on 30% of these contacts. During the next two hours

Reika [66]

Answer:

a) 23.11% probability of making exactly four sales.

b) 1.38% probability of making no sales.

c) 16.78% probability of making exactly two sales.

d) The mean number of sales in the two-hour period is 3.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each phone call, there are only two possible outcomes. Either a sale is made, or it is not. The probability of a sale being made in a call is independent from other calls. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

A telemarketer makes six phone calls per hour and is able to make a sale on 30% of these contacts. During the next two hours, find:

Six calls per hour, 2 hours. So

$n = 2*6 = 12$

Sale on 30% of these calls, so $p = 0.3$

a. The probability of making exactly four sales.

This is P(X = 4).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{8} = 0.2311$

23.11% probability of making exactly four sales.

b. The probability of making no sales.

This is P(X = 0).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.0138$

1.38% probability of making no sales.

c. The probability of making exactly two sales.

This is P(X = 2).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.1678$

16.78% probability of making exactly two sales.

d. The mean number of sales in the two-hour period.

The mean of the binomia distribution is

$E(X) = np$

$E(X) = 12*0.3 = 3.6$

The mean number of sales in the two-hour period is 3.6.

Which equation is true when the value of x is -12

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Which equation is true when the value of x is -12 HERE YOU GO!!

Step-by-step explanation:

tricky ... let's see ...

I notice that if we subtract xy from both sides we get

7x + xy - xy = xy - xy + 21

then

7x = 21

and

x = 21/7 = 3

so there is only one value of x that satisfies the equation

x = 3

Going back to the original equation we see that any value of y will satisfy the original equation

we can see this by rearranging things:

7x + xy - xy = 21

here, I have performed the subtraction of xy on the right side as above, but have left the left side undone

(so we don't lose the presence of y)

Note that the above can also be written as

7x + (x - x)y = 21

7x + 0y =21

now, since anything times zero equals zero,

y may be any number.

Let's summarize:

1) x = 3

2) y = anything

looking back at the original question;

1) the equation is true for all ordered pairs

FALSE (only one x works, not all x)

2) there are no x and y pairs for which the equation is true.

FALSE (x=3, y=anything) makes it true, i.e. (3,1)

3) For each value of x, there is one and only one value of y that makes the equation true,

FALSE for each value of x, for the one value of x, x=3, y can be any number, which is an infinite number, not one

4) for each value of y, there is one and only on value of x that makes the equation true.

TRUE!! for all the infinite values of y you may pick, there is one and only one x you may pick, x = 3

ANSWER: STATEMENT 4 is CORRECT (TRUE)
