A) -6a = 36

Divide both sides by -6 so that (a) is isolated.

a = -6

Check by plugging in -6 for a.

-6a=36

-6(-6)=36

36=36

So, a=-6

B) -9d=-72

Divide both sides by -9.

d = -72/-9

d = 8

Check work by plugging in 8 for d.

-9d=-72

-9(8)=-72

-72=-72

So, d=8

There would be 2034 students competing in 2012.

We can write a simple equation to find this answer. Let X, be the number of students starting in 2012. Then, we multiply by 0.9 and 1.1 to get to 2014. To work backwards, just divide by 1.1, then by 0.9.

2014 / 1.1 / 0.9 = 2034

What is the relationship between sin(90 degrees) and sin(-90 degrees)

Volgvan

Answer:

$sin(90\°)=-sin(-90\°)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$sin(90\°)=1$

$sin(-90\°)=-1$

therefore

$sin(90\°)=-sin(-90\°)$

The side length of the base of a square pyramid is 30 centimeters. The height of the pyramid is 45 centimeters.

puteri [66]

Answer:

volume = 13500 $cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given pyramid, its volume can be determined by:

volume of pyramid = $\frac{lwh}{3}$

Where: l is the base length, w is the base width and h id the height of the pyramid.

For the given question, l 30 cm, w = 30 cm and h = 45 cm.

So that,

volume = $\frac{30*30*45}{3}$

= $\frac{40500}{3}$

= 13500

volume = 13500 $cm^{3}$

The volume of the pyramid is 13500 $cm^{3}$ .

A certain type of flashlight requires two type-D batteries, and the flashlight will work only if both its batteries have accepta

VikaD [51]

Answer: Our required probability is 0.167.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 15

Probability of success p = 80% = 0.8

Probability of failure q = 20% = 0.2

We need to find the probability that at least fourteen will work.

So, by Binomial distribution, we get that

$P(X\geq 14)=P(X=14)+P(X=15)\\\\P(X\geq 14)=^{15}C_{14}(0.8)^{14}(0.2)+^{15}C_{15}(0.8)^{15}\\\\P(X\geq 14)=0.167$

Hence, our required probability is 0.167.
