Solve the following quadratic equation for all values of x in simplest form. 20+ 2x= 28

n200080 [17]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to isolate x.

Start by moving the 20 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides.

2x = 8

Since x is being multiplied by 2, we need to divide both sides by 2 to move it to the other side.

x = 4

If 90 percent of automobiles in Orange County have both headlights working, what is the probability that in a sample of eight au

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function

$P(X=7)=(8C7)(0.9)^7 (1-0.9)^{8-7}=0.3826$

$P(X=8)=(8C8)(0.9)^8 (1-0.9)^{8-8}=0.4305$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)=0.3826 +0.4305=0.8131$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest "number of automobiles with both headligths working", on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=8, p=0.9)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

And for this case we want to find this probability:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function

$P(X=7)=(8C7)(0.9)^7 (1-0.9)^{8-7}=0.3826$

$P(X=8)=(8C8)(0.9)^8 (1-0.9)^{8-8}=0.4305$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)=0.3826 +0.4305=0.8131$

How could you use coordinate geometry to prove that segment BD and segment AC bisect one another?

____ [38]

Answer:

I think it's prove the midpoints are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not completely sure but I'm taking it right now and I believe that's the most logical answer because if they meet up at the same midpoint then they could bisect each other.

in mrs. wallace class's science class, 1/2 of the students are boys. Of the boys , 1/8 are left- handed. what fraction of the st

o-na [289]

Answer:

1/16 of the class are left handed boys but we do not know the amount of left handed girls so we cannot be sure.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 * 1/8 = 1/16

there is still no way to be sure of how many girls are left handed so you should probably make a note by the problem so the mistake on the test will be realized
