Solve the two inequalities.
3.5x-10>-3
3.5x>7
x>2

8x-9<39
8x<48
x<6

Hope it helped!

Answer:

The solution set of the given compound inequality is x ∈ (2 , 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequalities are given to be : 3.5x - 10 > -3 and 8x - 9 < 39

First take : 3.5x - 10 > -3

Adding 10 on both the sides

⇒ 3.5x - 10 + 10 > -3 + 10

⇒ 3.5x > 7

Now, dividing by 3.5 both the sides

⇒ x > 2

Now, 8x - 9 < 39

Adding 9 on both the sides

⇒ 8x - 9 + 9 < 39 + 9

⇒ 8x < 48

Now, dividing by 8 on both the sides

⇒ x < 6

Thus, The solution set of the given compound inequality is x ∈ (2 , 6)

Compare using >,=, or >.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

5 = 5

5 < 6

7 > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The two slashes is the equal sign, comparing two numbers that are of the same value. The sign below that means "less than," and 5 is less than 6. The sign below the "less than" sign is the "greater than" sign, and in the given example, 7 is GREATER THAN 6.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you are trying to find x, you have to divide both sides by 4 to isolate x and get your answer.

Which angle measures create a triangle with three different side lengths. 40°, 40°, and 100° 65°, 65°, and 65° 45°, 45°, and 90°

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

29°, 58°, and 93°

Step-by-step explanation:

If the angles opposite are equal, the sides are equal. In order to have three different side lengths, you must have three different angles.

Suppose a random variable, x, arises from a binomial experiment. If n = 6, and p = 0.30, find the following probabilities using

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

a) P(X=1) = 0.302526

b) P(X=5) = 0.010206

c) P(X=3) = 0.18522

d) P(X≤3) = 0.92953

e) P(X≥5) = 0.010935

f) P(X≤4) = 0.989065

Explanation:

Binomial experiments are modeled by the formula:

$P(X=x)=C(n,x)\cdot p^x\cdot (1-p)^{(n-x)}$

Where

P(X=x) is the probability of exactly x successes

$C(n,x)=\dfrac{n!}{x!\cdot (n-x)!}$

p is the probability of one success, which must be the same for every trial, and every trial must be independent of other trial.

n is the number of trials

1 - p is the probability of fail

there are only two possible outcomes for each trial: success or fail.

a.) P (x=1)

$P(X=1)=\dfrac{6!}{1!\cdot (6-1)!}\times (0.3)^1\times(1-0.3)^{(6-1)}=0.302526$

b.) P (x=5)

$P(X=5)=\dfrac{5!}{5!\cdot (6-5)!}\times (0.3)^5\times (1-0.3)^{(6-5)}=0.010206$

c.) P (x=3)

Using the same formula:

$P(X=3)=0.18522$

d.) P (x less than or equal to 3)

P(X≤3)= P(X=3) + P(X=2) + P(X=1) + P(X=0)

Also,

P(X≤3) = 1 - P(X≥4) = 1 - P(X=4) - P(X=5) - P(X=6)

You can use either of those approaches. The result is the same.

Using the second one:

P(X=4) = 0.059335
P(X=5) = 0.010206
P(X=6) = 0.000729

P(X≤3) = 1 - 0.05935 - 0.010206 - 0.000729 = 0.92953

e.) P(x greather than or equal to 5)

P(X≥5) = P(X=5) + P(X=6)

P(X≥5) = 0.010206 + 0.000729 = 0.010935

f.) P(x less than or equal 4)

P(X≤4) = 1 - P(X≥5) = 1 - P(X=5) - P(X=6)

P(X≤4) = 1 - 0.010206 - 0.000729 = 0.989065
