Question is not Proper.The Proper Question is given below.

∠P and ∠Q are complementary. m∠P = 52° and m∠Q = (3x + 2)°. Find the value of x. Show your work.

Answer:

Therefore the value of x is

$x=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∠P and ∠Q are complementary.

m∠P = 52° and

m∠Q = (3x + 2)°.

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

Complementary Angles:

Two angles are Complementary when they add up to 90 degrees.

Example 40° and 50° are Complementary Angles.

If 'x' and 'y' are Complementary Angles the we have

$x+y=90\°$

Here, ∠P and ∠Q are complementary.

$\angle P+\angle Q=90\°$

Substituting the values we get

$52+3x+2=90\\3x=90-54=36\\\\x=\dfrac{36}{3}=12$

Therefore the value of x is

$x=12$

What is the result of isolating y2 in the equation below? 9x2 + 7y2 = 42

ElenaW [278]

First, move 9x^2 to the right:

7y^2 = 42 - 9x^2

Then, divide 7 on both sides:

y^2 = 6 - 9/7 * x^2

Find the inverse of ????−7 −2

Masja [62]

Answer:

$A^{-1}=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2\\ -4 & -7\end{bmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$A=\begin{bmatrix}-7 & -2\\ 4 & 1\end{bmatrix}$

$det\ A=-7\times 1-(-2)\times 4\\\Rightarrow det\ A=1$

$A^{-1}=\frac{1}{det\ A}\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2\\ -4 & -7\end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow A^{-1}=\frac{1}{1}\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2\\ -4 & -7\end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow A^{-1}=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2\\ -4 & -7\end{bmatrix}$

$\therefore A^{-1}=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2\\ -4 & -7\end{bmatrix}$

$A.A^{-1}=\begin{bmatrix}-7 & -2\\ 4 & 1\end{bmatrix}\times \begin{bmatrix}1 & 2\\ -4 & -7\end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow A.A^{-1}=\begin{pmatrix}\left(-7\right)\cdot \:1+\left(-2\right)\left(-4\right)&\left(-7\right)\cdot \:2+\left(-2\right)\left(-7\right)\\ 4\cdot \:1+1\cdot \left(-4\right)&4\cdot \:2+1\cdot \left(-7\right)\end{pmatrix}\\\Rightarrow A.A^{-1}=\begin{pmatrix}1&0\\ 0&1\end{pmatrix}$

Hence, confirmed

A farmer owns pigs, chickens, and ducks. When all her animals are together, she has 30 feathered animals, and the animals all to

tatiyna

To solve this problem, let us first assign some variables. Let us say that:

x = pigs

y = chickens

z = ducks

From the problem statement, we can formulate the following equations:

1. y + z = 30 ---> only chicken and ducks have feathers

2. 4 x + 2 y + 2 z = 120 ---> pig has 4 feet, while chicken and duck has 2 each

3. 2 x + 2 y + 2 z = 90 ---> each animal has 2 eyes only

Rewriting equation 1 in terms of y:

y = 30 – z

Plugging this in equation 2:

4 x + 2 (30 – z) + 2 z = 120

4 x + 60 – 2z + 2z = 120

4 x = 120 – 60

4 x = 60

x = 15

From the given choices, only one choice has 15 pigs. Therefore the answers are:

She has 15 pigs, 12 chickens, and 18 ducks.

A newspaper found that, on average, 7.6% of people stay overnight in the hospital with a 1.5% margin of error. Construct a 95% c

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Given:
p = 7.6% = 0.076, the percentage of people who stay overnight at the hospital.
E = 1.5% = 0.015, margin of error
95% confidence interval.

The standard error is
Es = $\sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }$
where
n = the sample size.

The margin of error is
$E=z^{*}E_{s}$
where
z* = 1.96 at the 95% confidence level.

Because the margin of error is given, there is no need to calculate it.
The 95% confidence interval is
p +/- E = 0.076 +/- 0.015 = (0.061, 0.091) = (6.1%, 9.1%)

Answer:
The 95% confidence interval is between 6.1% and 9.1%.
