X - Ollie's age

8 is subtracted from Ollie's age = x-8
the result is the same as
subtracting 16 from 3 times his age = 3x-16

x-8=3x-16 \\
x-3x=-16+8 \\
-2x=-8 \\
x=4

Ollie is 4 years old.

The air force reports that the distribution of heights of male pilots is approximately normal, with a mean of 72.6 inches and a
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that X -  the distribution of heights of male pilots is approximately normal, with a mean of 72.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.7 inches.

Height of male pilot = 74.2 inches

We have to find the percentile

X = 74.2

Corresponding Z score = 74.2-72.6 = 1.6

P(X<174.2) = P(Z<1.6) = 0.5-0.4452=0.0548=5.48%

i.e. only 5% are below him in height.

Thus the malepilot is in 5th percentile.

Please help me find x. I really don't get it.
inysia [295]

Answer:

  x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the sine and cosine functions can be written as ...

  sin(x) = cos(90 -x)

  sin(A) = cos(90 -A) = cos(B) . . . . substituting the given values

Equating arguments of the cosine function, we have ...

 90 -(3x+4) = 8x -35

  86 -3x = 8x -35

  86 +35 = 8x +3x . . . . . add 3x+35 to both sides

  121 = 11x . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  121/11 = x = 11 . . . . . . . . divide by 11

_____

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

There are other applicable relationships between sine and cosine as well. The result is that there are many solutions to this equation. One set is ...

  11 +(32 8/11)k . . . for any integer k

Another set is ...

  61.8 +72k . . . . . for any integer k

Given that (-8,-5) is on the graph of f(x), find the corresponding point for the function f(x-2)
Volgvan
This one works the same way the last one did.

If -8 is x-2, then x = -6. The corresponding point is (-6, -5).
