If AB=BC,AB=4=4x-2,andBC=3x+3,fine the length of AB

Mathematics

laila [671]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I'm assuming AB=4=4x-2 was a typo and it's supposed to be AB = 4x - 2

AB=BC

AB = 4x - 2 BC = 3x + 3

4x - 2 = 3x + 3

Solve for x Add 2 to each side

4x - 2 = 3x + 3

4x - 2 + 2 = 3x + 3 + 2

4x = 3x + 5 Subtract 3x from each side.

4x - 3x = 3x- 3x + 5

4x - 3x = 5

x = 5

Now plug back in to the original equations

AB = 4x - 2                  BC = 3x + 3

AB = 4 (5) - 2               BC = 3(5) + 3

AB = 20 - 2                  BC = 15 + 3

AB = 18                        BC = 18

So AB is 18

An experiment was conducted to test the effect of a new cholesterol medicine. Fifteen people were treated with medicine X and 15
gtnhenbr [62]

Considering the hypothesis tested and the p-value of the test, the correct option is given by:

There is sufficient evidence that there is a difference in mean cholesterol level when using medicine X and medicine Y.

<h3>What are the hypothesis tested?</h3>

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is no difference between the cholesterol levels, that is:

H₀:Hₓ-H

At the alternative hypothesis it is tested if there is a difference, hence:

H₀:Hₓ-H≠0

The p-value is of 0.003 < 0.01, hence we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there has was a difference, hence the correct option is given by:

There is sufficient evidence that there is a difference in mean cholesterol level when using medicine X and medicine Y.

I NEED HELP PLEASE <br> ITS DUE SOOM
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Tyler is correct. The temperature dropped at a rate of about 4° per hour between 4 and 6, while the temperature dropped at about 2.25° per hour between 6 and 10.

Edit: Explanation

The question is asking about which window of time had a <em>faster</em> decline in temperature, not a larger total change in temperature.

In a 2 hour timeframe, the temperature dropped 8°. (4-6 PM)

In a separate 4 hour timeframe, the temperature dropped 9°. (6-10 PM)

To find which window had a faster change in temp, I took the total temperature drop for each timeframe, then divided it by the number of hours each drop took.

8° / 2 = 4° per hour for 4-6 PM

9° / 4 = 2.25° per hour from 6-10 PM

Since the speed at which the temperature dropped per hour was greater from 4-6 PM than 6-10 PM, Tyler was correct.

In the graph shown, which ordered pair does NOT represent a solution to the graph?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
A) (1, 7) Doesn't
B) (0, 4) Doesn't
C) (2, –2) Doesn't
D) (3, –5) DOES

All the steps are right at the exception of line 7 (and onwards)

line 6 : 6x = 42 (it's right). Now divide both sides by 6:

line 7 should be:  6x/6 = 42/6
line 8 should be: x = 7.
