Answer:

X = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the parenthesis by -2 to get

-6x + 18 + 5x = -10

collect the like terms, -6 + 5x

-x + 18 = -10

subtract 18 from both sides to get X alone

-x = -10 - 18

-x = -28

change the signs


x = 28

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute the parenthesis on the left side by - 2

- 6x + 18 + 5x = - 10

- x + 18 = - 10 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

- x = - 28 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change within an interval is the slope of the endpoints.

The endpoints are:

  • (- 1, 6) and (0, 3)

The slope is

  • (3 - 6)/(0 - (-1)) = - 3/1 = - 3

Correct choice is C

On a particular production line,the likelihood that a light bulb is defective is 5%. Ten light bulbs are randomly selected. What
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Mean and Variance of the number of defective bulbs are 0.5 and 0.475 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information,

Let X is the number of defective bulbs.

Ten light bulbs are randomly selected.

The likelihood that a light bulb is defective is 5%.

Therefore sample size is = n = 10

Probability of a defective bulb = p = 0.05.

Therefore, q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

Mean of binomial random variable: \mu=np

Therefore, \mu=10(0.05)=0.5

Variance of binomial random variable: \sigma^2=npq

Therefore, \sigma^2=10(0.05)(0.95)=0.475

Mean and Variance of the number of defective bulbs are 0.5 and 0.475 respectively.

The sum of three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence is 27, and the sum of their squares is 293. What is the absolute di
Ber [7]

The absolute difference between the greatest and the least of these three numbers in the arithmetic sequence is 10.

The sequence is an arithmetic sequence. Therefore,

d = common difference

let

a = centre term

Therefore, the 3 consecutive term will be as follows

a - d,  a, a + d

a - d +  a + a + d = 27

3a = 27

a = 27 / 3

a = 9

Therefore,

(a-d)² + (a)² + (a + d)² = 293

(a²-2ad+d²) + 9² + (a² + 2ad + d²) = 293

(81 - 18d + d²) + 81 + (81 + 18d + d²) = 293

243 + 2d² = 293

2d² = 50

d² = 50 / 2

d = √25

d = 5

common difference = 5

Therefore, the 3 numbers are as follows

9 - 5 , 9, 9 + 5 = 4, 9, 14

The difference between the greatest and the least of these 3 numbers are as follows:

14 - 4 = 10

Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

x = \frac{2*\sqrt{3}}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 30°

Opposite side = x

Adjacent side = 2

Apply the tan trigonometric function, thus:

tan (30) = \frac{opp}{adj}

tan (30) = \frac{x}{2}

2 * tan (30) = x

2 * \frac{1}{sqrt{3}} = x (tan 30 = 1/√3)

\frac{2}{sqrt{3}} = x

Rationalize

\frac{2* \sqrt{3}}{sqrt{3} * \sqrt{3}} = x

\frac{2*\sqrt{3}}{3} = x
