Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of x

By mathematical convention;

NM = NL + LM

Now, substitute individual values

3x + 13 = (6x-5) + (2x + 3)

3x + 13 = 6x-5 + 2x + 3

3x + 13 = 8x -2

Collect like terms

8x -3x = 13 + 2

5x = 15

x = 15/5

x = 3

Answer:

0.0066

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean $\mu$ = 75

Variance $\sigma^2 =961$

The standard deviation $\sigma = \sqrt{961} = 31$

The sample size n = 100

$\mu = \mu_{\overline x} = 75$

$\sigma _{\overline x} = \dfrac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}$

$\sigma _{\overline x} = \dfrac{31 }{\sqrt{100}}$

$\sigma _{\overline x} = \dfrac{31 }{10}}$

$\sigma _{\overline x} = 3.1$

$P(\overline x > 83.7) = 1 - P( \overline x < 83.7)$

$P(\overline x > 83.7) = 1 -P\bigg ( \dfrac{\overline x - \mu_{\overline x} }{\sigma _{\overline x}} < \dfrac{83.7 - 76}{3.1} \bigg)$

$P(\overline x > 83.7) = 1 -P\bigg ( Z< \dfrac{7.7}{3.1} \bigg)$

$P(\overline x > 83.7) = 1 -P ( Z< 2.48)$

Using the Z table;

P(x > 83.7) = 1 - 0.9934

P(x > 83.7) = 0.0066

Thus, probability = 0.0066

What is the answer to this

stealth61 [152]

Hello!

The angle is a right angle, which measures 90°.

3x + x = 4x

Angle = 4x + 10 = 90

Switch that around

90 - 10 = 4x

90 - 10 = 80

80 = 4x

Divide by 4

$\frac{80}{4} = \frac{4x}{4}$ ]

$\framebox{x = 20 \°}$

X cubed = 64/27 A= ±8/3 B= 8/3 C= ±4/3 D= 4/3

Digiron [165]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x³ = 64/27

Take the cube root of both sides.

x = ∛(64/27)

Distribute the cube root to the numerator and denominator.

x = (∛64)/(∛27)

Take the cube root of the terms.

x = 4/3
