Answer:

x=-30

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to get rid of all the denominators in this equation.

This can be achieved by multiplying both the left and the right side by the Least Common Denominator.

In our example, the LCD is equal to .We need to get rid of all the denominators in this equation.

These are the first six terms of a sequence with a = 2:
inn [45]

Answer:

a_{n} = 9a_{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Note there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms of the sequence, that is

r = 18 ÷ 2 = 162 ÷ 18 = 1458 ÷ 162 = 13122 ÷ 1458 = 9

A recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by multiplying the previous term by the common ratio, that is

a_{n} = 9a_{n-1} with a₁ = 2

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

a) 0.75

b)5.05

c)0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

P(Y>5)=?

This part is solved in the given picture.

b)

The mean of a uniform distribution is (a+b)/2.

Where a=4.95 , b=5.15.

E(Y)=(4.95+5.15)/2

E(Y)=10.1/2

E(Y)=5.05.

c)

The variance of a uniform distribution is (b-a)²/2.

V(Y)=(5.15-4.95)²/2

V(Y)=0.2²/2

V(Y)=0.04/2

V(Y)=0.02.

You are designing a large rectangular fish tank for your tropical fish. The length will be 1 yard 3 inches, the width will be 1.
aliina [53]

Answer:

  A. 14040 cubic inches

  B. 61 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cuboid is given by the formula ...

  V = LWH

__

<h3>A.</h3>

One yard is 36 inches, so 1 yard 3 inches is 36 +3 = 39 inches.

One foot is 12 inches, so 1.5 ft = 1.5×12 = 18 inches.

The volume of the fish tank is ...

  V = (39 in)(18 in)(20 in) = 14,040 in³

The volume is 14,040 cubic inches.

__

<h3>B.</h3>

One gallon is 16 cups, so 976 cups is 976/16 = 61 gallons.

976 cups equals 61 gallons.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

One gallon is 231 cubic inches, so the volume of the tank is actually about 972 cups, or 60.8 gallons.

Triangle V U W is shown. The length of side W V is 6 centimeters, the length of side W U is 3 StartRoot 3 EndRoot centimeters, a
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The angle measures of Δ VUW are m∠V = 60°, m∠U = 90°, m∠W = 30° ⇒ last answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In any triangle if the sum of the squares of the shortest two sides is equal to the square of the longest side, then the triangle is a right triangle and the angle opposite to the longest side is the right angle

In Δ VUW

∵ WV = 6 cm

∵ WU = 3\sqrt{3} cm

∵ UV = 3 cm

- Use the rule above tho check if it is a right Δ or not

∴ The longest side is WV

∴ The shortest two sides are WU and UV

∵ (WV)² = (6)² = 36

∵ (WU)² + (UV)² = (3\sqrt{3} )² + (3)² = 27 + 9 = 36

∴ (WV)² =  (WU)² + (UV)²

- That means ∠U which opposite to WV is a right angle

∴ Δ VUW is a right triangle at ∠U

∴ m∠U = 90°

Let us use the trigonometry ratios to find m∠W and m∠V

→ sin Ф = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

∵ UV is the opposite side of ∠W

∵ WV is the hypotenuse

∵ sin(∠W) = \frac{UV}{WV}

∵ sin(∠W) = \frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}

- Use sin^{-1} to find ∠W

∴ ∠W = sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})

∴ m∠W = 30°

∵ WU is the opposite side of ∠V

∵ WV is the hypotenuse

∵ sin(∠V) = \frac{WU}{WV}

∵ sin(∠V) = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{6}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

- Use sin^{-1} to find ∠V

∴ ∠V = sin^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})

∴ m∠V = 60°

The angle measures of Δ VUW are m∠V = 60°, m∠U = 90°, m∠W = 30°
