How to solve 2x-1/2=3-x

Mathematics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
5 0
To solve for x:
Move all the terms containing "x" to the left side of the equation. Do this by adding x to both sides.

2x+x=3x. The new equation is:
3x-1/2=3

Now, move all terms not containing "x" to the right side of the equation. Do this by adding 1/2 to both sides.
3x=3+1/2 The new equation is:
3x=3 1/2, or 3.5

The final step is to isolate x. To do so, divide each side by 3.
3x/3 = 3 1/2 /3 The new equation is:
x=1 1/6

Are your finances, buying habits, medical records, and phone calls really private? A real concern for many adults is that comput
Andrej [43]

Answer:

a)There is a 4.88% probability that none is concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

b)There is a 7.89% probability that all are concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

c)There is a 37.23% probability that exactly two are concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials in an experiment which has two possible outcomes (commonly called a binomial experiment).

It is given by the following formula:

P = C_{n,x}.p^{n}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of a success.

In this problem, a success is being concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

53% of adults are concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls, so p = 0.53

(a) Out of four adults, none is concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

Four adults, so n = 4.

Is the probability of 0 successes, so x = 0.

P = C_{n,x}.p^{n}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P = C_{4,0}.(0.53)^{0}.(0.47)^{4}

P = 0.0488

There is a 4.88% probability that none is concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

(b) Out of four adults, all are concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

Four adults, so n = 4.

Is the probability of 4 successes, so x = 4.

P = C_{n,x}.p^{n}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P = C_{4,0}.(0.53)^{4}.(0.47)^{0}

P = 0.0789

There is a 7.89% probability that all are concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

(c) Out of four adults, exactly two are concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

Four adults, so n = 4.

Is the probability of 4 successes, so x = 2.

P = C_{n,x}.p^{n}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P = C_{4,2}.(0.53)^{2}.(0.47)^{2}

P = 0.3723

There is a 37.23% probability that exactly two are concerned that employers are monitoring phone calls.

Which expression is equivalent to x² + 2x + 2?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

(x+1-i)(x+1+i)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+1-i)(x+1+i)\\\\=(x+1)^2 -i^2~~~~~~~~~~~~~;[a^2 -b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)]\\\\=x^2 +2x +1 -(-1)\\\\=x^2 +2x +1+1\\\\=x^2 +2x +2

The average annual income I in dollars of a lawyer with an age of x years is modeled with the following function I=425x^2+45,500
natali 33 [55]
You did not include the questions, but I will give you two questions related with this same statement, and so you will learn how to work with it.

Also, you made a little (but important) typo.

The right equation for the annual income is: I = - 425x^2 + 45500 - 650000

1) Determine <span>the youngest age for which the average income of a lawyer is $450,000

=> I = 450,000 = - 425x^2 + 45,500x - 650,000

=> 425x^2 - 45,000x + 650,000 + 450,000 = 0

=> 425x^2 - 45,000x + 1,100,000 = 0

You can use the quatratic equation to solve that equation:

x = [ 45,000 +/- √ { (45,000)^2 - 4(425)(1,100,000)} ] / (2*425)

x = 38.29 and x = 67.59

So, the youngest age is 38.29 years

2) Other question is what is the maximum average annual income a layer</span> can earn.

That means you have to find the maximum for the function - 425x^2 + 45500x - 650000

As you are in college you can use derivatives to find maxima or minima.

+> - 425*2 x + 45500 = 0

=> x = 45500 / 900 = 50.55

=> I = - 425 (50.55)^2 + 45500(50.55) - 650000 = 564,021. <--- maximum average annual income
