2. Starting at a fixed time, each car entering an intersection is observed to see whether it turns left (L), right (R), or goes

straight ahead (A). The experiment terminates as soon as a car is observed to turn left. Let X= the number of cars observed. What are possible X values?
Given the outcomes below, find their associated X values.
Outcome: RRL AARRL AARL RRAL ARL
x= ____ ____ ____ ____ ____

Answer:

Natural numbers (integers greater than zero)

X = 3,  5,  4,  4,  3

Step-by-step explanation:

The least number of cars that can be observed in this experiment is 1, if the first car turns left. On the other hand, the experiment could go on forever if no car ever turns left, thus the highest number of cars approaches infinite.

The possible values of X are integers greater than zero, which are known as the Natural numbers.

If X = number of cars observed, simply count the number of letters in each outcome for the value of X:

Outcome = RRL, AARRL, AARL, RRAL, ARL

            X = 3,  5,  4,  4,  3

To solve a system of inequalities so you can graph it how do you change these two equations into something like the two that are
Zigmanuir [339]
Explanation

Problem #2

We must find the solution to the following system of inequalities:

\begin{gathered} 3x-2y\leq4, \\ x+3y\leq6. \end{gathered}

(1) We solve for y the first inequality:

-2y\leq4-3x.

Now, we multiply both sides of the inequality by (-1), this changes the signs on both sides and inverts the inequality symbol:

\begin{gathered} 2y\ge-4+3x, \\ y\ge\frac{3}{2}x-2. \end{gathered}

The solution to this inequality is the set of all the points (x, y) over the line:

y=\frac{3}{2}x-2.

This line has:

• slope m = 3/2,

,

• y-intercept b = -2.

(2) We solve for y the second inequality:

\begin{gathered} x+3y\leq6, \\ 3y\leq6-x, \\ y\leq-\frac{1}{3}x+2. \end{gathered}

The solution to this inequality is the set of all the points (x, y) below the line:

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+2.

This line has:

• slope m = -1/3,

,

• y-intercept b = 2.

(3) Plotting the lines of points (1) and (2), and painting the region:

• over the line from point (1),

,

• and below the line from point (2),

we get the following graph:

Answer

The points that satisfy both inequalities are given by the intersection of the blue and red regions:

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

○ I, II, and III

Step-by-step explanation:

Long explanation short, dividing an expression by 2 is the exact same as multiplying an expression by ½. That is to say, dividing a term is the exact same as multiplying by its multiplicative inverse, so all three of these would qualify.
