The distance between -18 and 15 is equal to _____. 18 - 15 15 - 18 -18 - 15 15 - (-18)

NemiM [27]3 years ago

Answer: Choice D.  15 - (-18)

This results in 15 - (-18) = 15 + 18 = 33.

So from -18 to 15 on a number line is 33 spaces.

We can also say

|-18 - 15| = |-33| = 33

The use of absolute value is to ensure the distance is never negative.

Radda [10]

Answer:

x\sqrt{1-x}+5\sqrt{1-x}

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+5)(\sqrt{1-x} )\\\\=\left(\sqrt{1-x}\right)\left(x+5\right)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac\\\\a=\left(\sqrt{1-x}\right),\:b=x,\:c=5\\\\=\left(\sqrt{1-x}\right)x+\left(\sqrt{1-x}\right)\times\:5\\\\=x\left(\sqrt{1-x}\right)+5\left(\sqrt{1-x}\right)\\\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\\\=x\sqrt{1-x}+5\sqrt{1-x}

The random variable x is the number of occurrences of an event over an interval of ten minutes. It can be assumed that the proba
Olegator [25]

Answer:

The probability that occurrence of 8 in ten minutes is 0.0771.

Step-by-step explanation:

Poisson Distribution:

A discrete random variable X having the enumerable set {0,1,2,.....} as the spectrum, is said to have Poisson distribution with parameter \mu (>0), if the p.m.f is given by

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-mu}\mu^x}{x!}  for x=0,1,2,...

               = 0,           elsewhere

The mean number of occurrences in ten minutes is 5.3.

Here \mu = 5.3 and x= 8

P(X=8)=\frac{e^{-5.3}(5.3)^8}{8!}

               =0.0771

The probability that occurrence of 8 in ten minutes is 0.0771.

7. If F(x) = f(g(x)), where f(-2) = 8, f'(-2) = 4, f'(5) = 3, g(5)=-2, gʻ(5) = 6.. Find F'(5) <br>​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

I'm going to lay this out in a chart so it's a little easier to see:

F(x) = f(g(x))

x | f (x) | f ' (x) | g (x) | g ' (x)

--------------------------------------

-2 | 8 | 4 |

5 | | 3 | -2 | 6

Remember the chain rule, which says

(f (g (x))) ' = g ' (x) f ' (g (x))

When they ask for F ' (5), they are asking for (f (g (x))) ' when x = 5.

Using the chain rule, that's

F ' (5) = g ' (5) f ' (g (5))

We can simplify using the numbers provided.

F ' (5) = (6) f ' (-2)

F ' (5) = (6) (4)

F ' (5) = 24

I hope that helps!
