Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this we need to plug in the answer choices and make sure they work for BOTH answers!

Let us start with option A. (6,3) 3 = 4(6) + 6 = 3 = 30 This is automaticly wrong because 3 doesnt equal 30. There is no need to try it on the second equation since the first one was wrong.

Next answer choice, B (3,6) 6 = 2(3) = 6=6. The second equation works perfect for this. Now we have to make sure that it works for the first one as well. 6 = 4(3) + 6 = 6 = 18 which is wrong.

Next, C. (1,2) 2 = 2(1) = 2=2 Right now lets check the other equation.

2 = 4(1) + 6 = 2=10. Wrong

Last, D. (-3, -6) -6 = 2(-3) = -6 = -6 Right now lets check the other equation.

-6 = 4(-3) + 6 = -6 = -6. CORRECT. Answer choice D works for both equations.

Sorry for the wait of response.

A. Find x<br>b. Is the triangle equilateral isosceles or scalene?<br><br>please explain

spayn [35]

180 = 24 x
7.5 = x

angle P = 85
angle Q = 45
angle R = 50

No this triangle is scalene because the sides nor the angles are congruent.

Use this formula to find all the solutions of the equation. (Round terms to four decimal places)

Misha Larkins [42]

I might be misreading something here but if:

x^5+243=0 subtract 243 from both sides

x^5=-243 raise both sides to the 1/5 power (or take the fifth root of both sides)

x=-3

So there is only one solution, x=-3

Monthly water bills for a city have a mean of $108.43 and a standard deviation of $36.98. Find the probability that a randomly s

GaryK [48]

Answer:

The bill size can be considered usual.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean (μ) = $108.43

Standard deviation (σ) = $36.98

Now, consider the distribution to be normal distribution :

$P(Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{173-108.43}{36.98})\\\\\implies P(Z>1.75)$

Now, finding values of z-score from the table. We get,

P(Z > 1.75) = 0.9599

⇒ 95.99%

So, only 4.01 % of the people in the city wastes water.

Hence, the bill size can be considered usual.
