|x - 3| +8=3 Absolute value equations

Mathematics
2 answers:
MAXImum [283]3 years ago

|x - 3| = 3 - 8

|x -3| = -5

x - 3 = -5

x = -2

x-3 = 5

x = 8

x = 8, -2

But if you try and check that these solutions work, you will find that they do not. Since the absolute value equation has a negative value, there is no real solution.

Answer: No Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-3| + 8 = 3

subtract 8 from both sides

|x-3| = -5

There is no real solution since <em>absolute value equation cannot be negative</em>

eduard

Answer:

  • \boxed{\sf{14}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed{\underline{\text{ORDER OF OPERATIONS:}}}

Use the order of operations.

Note: PEMDAS or BODMAS stands for:

<u>PEMDAS</u>

  • <u>Parentheses</u>
  • <u>Exponents</u>
  • <u>Multiply</u>
  • <u>Divide</u>
  • <u>Add</u>
  • <u>Subtract</u>

<u>BODMAS</u>

  • <u>Brackets</u>
  • <u>Order</u>
  • <u>Divide</u>
  • <u>Add</u>
  • <u>Subtract</u>

<u>First, do parentheses.</u>

3+6*(5+4)÷3-7

(5+4)=9

\Longrightarrow: \sf{3+6* 9\div 3-7}

<u>Do multiply and divide.</u>

6*9=54

54/3=18

<u>Then, rewrite the problem down.</u>

\Longrightarrow: \sf{3+18-7}

<u>Add.</u>

\sf{3+18=21}

\sf{21-7=\boxed{\sf{14}}

\Longrightarrow: \boxed{\sf{14}}

  • <u>Therefore, the correct answer is "C. 14".</u>

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.

A committee of 15 members is voting on a proposal. Each member casts a yea or nay vote. On a random voting basis, what is the pr
Igoryamba

Answer:

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they vote yes, or they vote no. The probability of a person voting yes or no is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

Random voting:

So 50% of voting yes, 50% no, so p = 0.5

15 members:

This means that n = 15

What is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?

Either all vote no(P(X = 0)) or all vote yes(P(X = 15)). So

p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.00003

P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.5)^{15}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.00003

So

p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15) = 0.00003 + 0.00003 = 0.00006

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Explain how to use the regression calculator to make a reasonable prediction given a data table. ​
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Given bivariate data, first determine which is the independent variable, x, and which is the dependent variable, y. Enter the data pairs into the regression calculator. Substitute the value for one variable into the equation for the regression line produced by the calculator, and then predict the value of the other variable.
