Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 3x + 5/16 = 3/4 - 1/8x - 1/2

First we need to use the multiplication prope-rty before combining the like terms. The importance of this is to covent all fraction's to whole numbers.

Multiply through by 16

48x+5= 12-2x-8

Next is to collect the like terms

48x+2x = -8+12-5

50x = -1

Divide both sides by 50

50x/50 = -1/50

x = -1/50

The value used to multiply both sides is 16 and the value of x is -1/50

X and Y are independent random variables. X is normally distributed with mean 1 and variance 1. Y is normally distributed with m
g100num [7]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of variance:

Total Variance = sum (i=1, N) {c^2,variance^2}

= c1^2*variance1^2 + c2^2*variance2^2 + .....

Variance of X = 1

Variance of Y = 5

Variance of Y - 2X = (1^2)*(5) - (2^2)**(1)

= 5 - 4 = 1

A club swimming pool is 21 ft wide and 33 ft long. the club members want an exposed aggregate border in a strip of uniform width
vovangra [49]
First compute the perimeter of the pool:
(21+33)*2=108 foot. 
Since the material cover 232 ft^2, then it is sufficient to divide the above number over the length of the border like this:
232/108=2.1

The trip can be 2.1 ft in wide.

Could someone help me please ? :)
Degger [83]

ANSWER = 17.5% of 360 = 63

EXPLANATION:

Find 10% of 360 = 36

Then 5% of 360 = 18

Then 2.5% of 360 = 9

Add them together

so 17.5% of 360 = 63
