Answer: x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x-4)=-8

divide both sides

x-4=4

move constant to the right

x=4+4

add the number

x=8

I hope it helped!

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute the -2 to (x - 4), -2 × x is -2x and -2 × -4 is 8. The equation should now look like this, -2x + 8 = -8. Then subtract the positive 8 from both sides, giving you, -2x = -16. Then divide both sides by -2 and you should get 8 as your answer.

A toy ball in the shape of a sphere expands and contracts. When it is completely​ closed, it has a diameter of 12.5 inches.Find
lana [24]

The volume of the sphere is 1022.65 \ in^3

Explanation:

Given that the diameter of the toy ball is 12.5 inches

We need to determine the volume of the toy ball.

The radius of the toy ball is given by

r=\frac{d}{2}

r=\frac{12.5}{2}

r=6.25 \ in

Thus, the radius of the toy ball is 6.25 in

The volume of the sphere can be determined using the formula,

V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Substituting the values, we get,

V=\frac{4}{3} \pi(6.25)^{3}

Multiplying, we get,

V=\frac{976.5625 \pi}{3}

Substituting \pi=3.14, we have,

V=\frac{976.5625 (3.14)}{3}

Simplifying, we get,

V=1022.65 \ in^3

Thus, the volume of the sphere is 1022.65 \ in^3

Coordinates (x, y)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

Point (7, 0)

Equation y = x - 7

<u>Step 2: Find</u>

  1. Substitute in point [Equation]:                                                                         0 = 7 - 7
  2. Subtract:                                                                                                            0 = 0

Since 0 = 0 is true, then it would be a solution to the equation.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) Child Growth Standards, the head circumference for boys at birth is normally di
Elena L [17]

Answer:

z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}

This z score tell to us how many deviations we are below or above the mean for a given normal distribution.

For the case of Eddie we got:

z= \frac{33.2-34.5}{1.3}= -1

And for the case of Sue we got:

z = \frac{32.7-33.9}{1.2}= -1

So then for both cases we see that Eddie and Sue are 1 deviation below the true mean for each gender so then the best conclusion for this case would be:

C.They are the same size relative to other children of the same sex.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define the random variable X as the head circumference for boys at birth and we know that the distribution for X is given by:

X\sim N(\mu = 34.5, \sigma=1.3)

Similarly we can define the random variable Y as the head circumference for boys at birth and we know that the distribution for Y is given by:

Y\sim N(\mu = 33.9, \sigma=1.2)

And we know that Eddie was born with 33.2 cm and Sue with 32.7 cm for the head circumference . Since we are interested to determine which child's head circumference is smaller relative to other children of the same sex, we can use the z score formula given by this formula:

z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}

This z score tell to us how many deviations we are below or above the mean for a given normal distribution.

For the case of Eddie we got:

z= \frac{33.2-34.5}{1.3}= -1

And for the case of Sue we got:

z = \frac{32.7-33.9}{1.2}= -1

So then for both cases we see that Eddie and Sue are 1 deviation below the true mean for each gender so then the best conclusion for this case would be:

C.They are the same size relative to other children of the same sex.
