Point V lies between points U and W on line UW. The distance between U and V is 2x-4, and the distance between V and W is 4x+10.

If UW = 9x – 9, what is UW in units?

Answer:

36UNITS

Step-by-step explanation:

If point V lies between U and W, then UV+VW = UW

given parameters

UV = 2x-4

VW = 4x+10

UW = 9x-9

Substituting the given functions in the formula first, we will have;

2x-4+4x+10 = 9x-9

6x+6 = 9x-9

Collect like terms

6x-9x = -9-6

-3x = -15

x = -15/-3

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into UW.

Since UW = 9x-9

UW = 9(5)-9

UW = 45-9

UW = 36

Natalka [10]

Answer:

36\:miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There is <em>one-and-a-half</em> <em>hour</em> in <em>ninety</em><em> </em><em>minutes</em>,<em> </em>so multiply 6 by 15 to get 90, then whatever is done to the bottom is also done to the top, so you <em>square</em> 6 to get 36.

For X a binomial random variable with n=5 and p=1/4, answer the following
mash [69]
Recall that for X\sim\mathrm{Bin}(n,p), i.e. a random variable X following a binomial distribution over n trials and with probability parameter p,

\mathbb P(X=x)=f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dbinom nx p^x(1-p)^{n-x}&\text{for }x\in\{0,1,\ldots,n\}\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

So you have

\mathbb P(X=2)=\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^2\left(1-\dfrac34\right)^{5-2}=\dfrac{135}{512}\approx0.26

\mathbb P(2\le X\le4)=\displaystyle\sum_{x=2}^4\mathbb P(X=x)
=\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^2\left(1-\dfrac14\right)^{5-2}+\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^3\left(1-\dfrac14\right)^{5-3}+\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^4\left(1-\dfrac14\right)^{5-4}
=\dfrac{375}{1024}\approx0.37

The expected value of X\sim\mathrm{Bin}(n,p) is simply np, while the standard deviation is \sqrt{np(1-p)}. In this case, they are \dfrac54=1.25 and \sqrt{\dfrac{15}{16}}\approx0.97, respectively.

I will cashapp you not playin but don’t give me the wrong Answer and explain
velikii [3]

Answer:

It would be option two: Bill's Electric Company charges 6 dollars per hour plus a flat rate of 15 dollars for a service call. If Monica has at least 100 dollars to spend, how many hours can the service man work?

Step-by-step explanation:

6 dollars an hour means it would be 6x.

A flat rate of 15 means there would be just 15 as a number, no x's.

And the sign is less than or equal to, so she has over a hundred dollars to spend.
