Solve for x (show all steps)

Mathematics
1 answer:
mylen [45]4 years ago
5 0

The formula for two secants is:

(A+B)*B = (C+D)*D

In the picture :

A = 5

B = 3

C = X

D = 4

(5 +3) * 3 = (X +4)*4

Use distributive property:

24 = 4x + 16

Subtract 16 from both sides:

4x = 8

Divide both sides by 4:

X = 8/4

X = 2

X+4y=30 system by substitution <br><br> X-2y=0
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

x=10, y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

For substitution, you always want to get the variable alone. The second equation (x-2y=0) will be easier to substitute into the first equation.

x-2y=0

x=2y

You can substitute 2y as x on the first equation (x+4y=30).

2y+4y=30

6y=30

y=5

Plug y=5 into any equation.

x+4(5)=30

x+20=30

x=10

In a recent survey of college professors, it was found that the average amount of money spent on entertainment each week was nor
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

0.0918

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the average amount of money spent on entertainment is normally distributed with mean=μ=95.25 and standard deviation=σ=27.32.

The mean and standard deviation of average spending of sample size 25 are

μxbar=μ=95.25

σxbar=σ/√n=27.32/√25=27.32/5=5.464.

So, the average spending of a sample of 25 randomly-selected professors is normally distributed with mean=μ=95.25 and standard deviation=σ=27.32.

The z-score associated with average spending $102.5

Z=[Xbar-μxbar]/σxbar

Z=[102.5-95.25]/5.464

Z=7.25/5.464

Z=1.3269=1.33

We have to find P(Xbar>102.5).

P(Xbar>102.5)=P(Z>1.33)

P(Xbar>102.5)=P(0<Z<∞)-P(0<Z<1.33)

P(Xbar>102.5)=0.5-0.4082

P(Xbar>102.5)=0.0918.

Thus, the probability that the average spending of a sample of 25 randomly-selected professors will exceed $102.5 is 0.0918.
