9 (2x-5) =

Remember to look at words that indicate an operation is to take place (Eg: "times" (x) "less than" (-) "Twice x" (2x))

Hope this helps!

Answer:

$9(2x-5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a verbal expression

Nine times five less than twice x

We have to convert into an algebraic expression

Twice of x= $2x$

Five less than twice x=2x-5

According to question

$9(2x-5)$

Hence, algebraic expression= $9(2x-5)$

Two students start a club the first week of school. Each member invites three new members the second week of school. Each of the

Mekhanik [1.2K]

I'll just make a manual computation on how 1 member recruits his members until week 5. Then multiply the sum by 2.
old new
1: 1
2: 1 x 3 = 3 ⇒ 1 3 *only new members recruit 3 more
3: 3 x 3 = 9 ⇒ 4 9
4: 9 x 3 = 27⇒ 13 27
5: 27 x 3 = 81 ⇒ 40 81

40 + 81 = 121. Total number of members under 1 founding member.

121 x 2 founding members = 242 total number of members within 5 weeks.

Tell whether the given value is a solution of the inequality. (yes or no)<br><br> -2 ≤ k/3; k = -9

olga55 [171]

Answer: No, it is not a solution

Work Shown:

-2 ≤ k/3

-2 ≤ -9/3

-2 ≤ -3

The last inequality is false because -3 should be smaller than -2 (not the other way around). Use a number line to help see this.

Since the last inequality is false, the original inequality must also be false for that particular k value. Therefore, k = -9 is not a solution.

1. A rabbit can hop 6 feet in 2 seconds and 12 feet in 4 seconds. If the number of feet varies directly with the time the rabbit

kykrilka [37]

Answer: The rabbit is hopping at 3 feet/ sec in speed

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let the The number of feet of the rabbit be expressed as N

AND time rabbit spends hopping can be expressed as t

From the question, The number of feet varies directly with the time rabbit spends hopping can be expressed as

N α t

Let us introduce a constant of proportionality ,S which represents speed in this case, we now have that

N = St

STEP 2 -- SOLVING

If the rabbit hop 6 feet in 2 seconds, Then speed =

N = St

6= S X2

S = 6/ 2

S = 3

also

If the rabbit hop 12 feet in 4 seconds, Then speed =

N = St

12= S X 4

S = 12/ 4

S = 3

Also recall

that Speed = Distance / time

Pluging the values in the first case,

speed = 6 feet/ 2 secconds = 3 feet/ seconds

in the second case

Speed= 12 feet/ 4 second s= 3 feet/ secs.

The tread life of a particular brand of tire is a random variable best described by a normal distribution with a mean of 60,000

valina [46]

Answer: 61,750 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The p-value of the tires to outlast the warranty = 0.96

The probability that corresponds to 0.96 from a Normal distribution table is 1.75.

Mean : $\mu=60,000\text{ miles}$

Standard deviation : $\sigma=1000\text{ miles}$

The formula for z-score is given by : -

$z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.75=\dfrac{x-60000}{1000}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x-60000=1750\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=61750$

Hence, the tread life of tire should be 61,750 miles if they want 96% of the tires to outlast the warranty.
