Answer:

x = - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{4} + 8 = 3 \\ \\ \frac{x}{4} = 3 - 8 \\ \\ \frac{x}{4} = - 5 \\ \\ x = - 5 \times 4 \\ \\ \huge \red { \boxed{ x = - 20}}$

What is the area of this figure? 49.5 in² 66.5 in² 84 in² 91 in²

zubka84 [21]

The given figure can be divided in two parts 1) Square with side 7 in 2) A right triangle with base 12 in and height 7 in.

1) Area of square = $side^{2}$

Side of the square is 7 in.

Area = $7^{2} =49in^{2}$

2) Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} .base . height$

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} (12)(7) =42in^{2}$

Area of polygon= Area of square+ Area of triangle

Area of polygon = 49+42 =91 square in.

Area = $91in^{2}$

Company A has 400 employees and Company B has 500 employees. Among these employees, there are 50 married couples, each consistin

abruzzese [7]

Answer:0,0025

Step-by-step explanation:

P(select a married couple) = P(person selected from Company A is one of the 50 with spouse at Company B) x P(person selected from Company B spouse of person already selected from Company A)

Now you can substitute the respective probabilities .

= (50/400) x (1/500)

= 0,0025

stellarik [79]

Answer:

the hypothesis is 5or 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let the hypotenuse be y so the first side will be y-1 and the other side will be y-8 repectively and using the pythagoras theorem you solved for the hypotenenuse

to solve the equation |x-9|=0.5x, kiana graphed the functions f(x)=|x-9| and g(x)=0.5x on the same set of coordinate axes. She t

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The answer is the option D

$f(6)=g(6)$ and $f(18)=g(18)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f\left(x\right)=\left|x-9\right|$

$g(x)=0.5x$

we know that

The solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

Using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

The solution are the points $(6,3)$ and $(18,9)$

therefore

The solution of the equation $\left|x-9\right|=0.5x$ are

$x=6, x=18$

For $x=6$

$f\left(6\right)=\left|6-9\right|=3$

$g(6)=0.5(6)=3$

$f(6)=g(6)$

For $x=18$

$f\left(18\right)=\left|18-9\right|=9$

$g(18)=0.5(18)=9$

$f(18)=g(18)$

therefore

$f(6)=g(6)$ and $f(18)=g(18)$ because the intersection points are common points for both graphs

The time between telephone calls to a cable television service call center follows an exponential distribution with a mean of 1.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

0.52763 is the probability that the time between the next two calls will be 54 seconds or less.

0.19285 is the probability that the time between the next two calls will be greater than 118.5 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The time between telephone calls to a cable television service call center follows an exponential distribution with a mean of 1.2 minutes.

The distribution function can be written as:

$f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x}\\\text{where lambda is the parameter}\\\\\text{Mean} = \mu = \displaystyle\frac{1}{\lambda}\\\\\Rightarrow 1.2 = \frac{1}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda = 0.84 \\f(x) = 0.84 e^{0.84 x}$

The probability for exponential distribution is given as:

$P( x \leq a) = 1 - e^{\frac{-a}{\mu}}\\\\P(a \leq x \leq b) = e^{\frac{-a}{\mu} -\frac{-b}{\mu}}$

a) P( time between the next two calls will be 54 seconds or less)

$P( x \leq 0.9)\\= 1 - e^{\frac{\frac{-54}{60}}{1.2}} = 0.52763$

0.52763 is the probability that the time between the next two calls will be 54 seconds or less.

b) P(time between the next two calls will be greater than 118.5 seconds)

$p( x > \frac{118.5}{60}) = P(x > 1.975)\\\\ = 1 - P(x \leq 1.975) \\\\= 1 -1+ e^{\frac{-1.975}{1.2}}\\\\= 0.19285$

0.19285 is the probability that the time between the next two calls will be greater than 118.5 seconds.
