W is the midpoint of VX. What is VX if VW=2x+5 and WX =4x-3

Mathematics

Answer:

<h2>VX = 26</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If W is the midpoint of VX then VW = WX. Therefore we have the equation:

2x + 5 = 4x - 3          <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

2x = 4x - 8       <em>subtract 4x from both sides</em>

-2x = -8        <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>

x = 4

VX = VW + WX

VX = 2x + 5 + 4x - 3 = (2x + 4x) + (5 - 3) = 6x + 2

Put the value of x = 4 to 6x + 2:

VX = 6(4) + 2 = 24 + 2 = 26

The number of lightning strikes in a year at the top of a particular mountain has a poisson distribution with a mean of 3.8. fin
atroni [7]

Let X be the number of lightning strikes in a year at the top of particular mountain.

X follows Poisson distribution with mean μ = 3.8

We have to find here the probability that in randomly selected year the number of lightning strikes is 0

The Poisson probability is given by,

P(X=k) = \frac{e^{-mean} mean^{x}}{x!}

Here we have X=0, mean =3.8

Hence probability that X=0 is given by

P(X=0) = \frac{e^{-3.8} 3.8^{0}}{0!}

P(X=0) = \frac{0.02237 * 1}{1}

P(X=0) = 0.0224

The probability that in a randomly selected year, the number of lightning strikes is 0 is 0.0224

Find the roots of f(x)=x^2+10x−96
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

x = -16 or x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the roots of a polynomial function, set the polynomial equal to zero and solve for x.

x² + 10x - 96 = 0

We need to factor the left side. The left side is a quadratic polynomial whose first coefficient is 1. We need two numbers whose product is -96 and whose sum is 10. The numbers are 16 and -6.

(x + 16)(x - 6) = 0

If a product of two factors equals zero, then one factor or the other or both must equal zero.

x + 16 = 0  or  x - 6 = 0

x = -16 or x = 6
