Multiply each side by -5, then add 25 to each side.

Answer: Multiply each side by −5, add 25 to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression: \frac{-1}{5}(x-25)=7

According to the BODMAS (bracket, of, divide, multiply, add, subtract), to solve for x, we need to first multiply -5 on both sides, we get

x-25=7\times-5\\\Rightarrow x-25=-35

Now, add 25 on both sides, we get

x-25+25=7+25\\\Rightarrow\ x=32

Hence, the correct sequence of operations is "Multiply each side by −5, add 25 to each side".

Given the parent function f(x)=x^2 describe the graph of y=(0.2x)^2
Yanka [14]
We have the following function:
 f (x) = x ^ 2
 We have the following transformation:
 Expansions and horizontal compressions
 The graph of y = f (bx):
 If 0 <b <1, the graph of y = f (x) expands horizontally by the factor of 1 / b. 
 Applying the transformation:
 y = (0.2x) ^ 2
 The factor is:
 1 / b = 1 / 0.2 = 5
 Answer:
 
b. expanded horizontally by a factor of 5

A shipping company handles containers in three different sizes:
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To know what will be the resulting E(X) and V(X) of the total volume shipped, you have to add the three variables.

According to the properties of the E(X) The expected value of two variables or more independent variables is equal to the addition of the expected values of each variable: X+Y⇒ E(X+Y)= E(X) + E(Y)

In this case:

E(X₁+X₂+X₃)= E(X₁)+E(X₂)+E(X₃)= 200 + 240 + 120= 560 ft³

The same happens with the variance, if you add two independent variables, the variance of the resulting variable will be equal to the addition of the variance of each variable: X+Y ⇒ V(X+Y)= V(X)+V(Y)

In this case:

V(X₁+X₂+X₃)= V(X₁)+V(X₂)+V(X₃)= 10+13+8= 31

I hope it helps!
