Answer:

c)No, P is the distance from A to B, and Q is the distance from B to A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point P partitions the directed segment from A to B into a 1:3 ratio.

Ratio is 1:3

So AP is 1  and PB is 3

Q partitions the directed segment from B to A into a 1:3 ratio.

Ratio is 1:3

So BQ is 1  and QA is 3.

That is AQ= 3  and BQ= 1

The ratio of Q and P varies

AP =1  and AQ=3

So P  and Q  are not at the same point.

Because P is the distance from A  to B  and Q is the distance from B to A

Which of the following is an example of a subjective​ probability? A. Although College A has never played College B in​ basketba
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The answer is option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subjective probability is defined as a probability which is derived from a person's own experience or belief without relying on any data or scientific calculation.

In the question, the situation given in option A is an example of subjective probability because the analyst is giving a probability based on his or her own belief without using any data at all.

The other options clearly state the probability is being calculated by relying on observations and data.

I hope this answer helps.

If Logx (1 / 8) = - 3 / 2, then x is equal to<br> A. - 4<br> B. 4<br> C. 1 / 4
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

B. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

log_x(\frac{1}{8})=-\frac{3}{2}

The logarithm function can be converted to an exponential function as

[\log_ab=c] can be expressed as [a^c=b]

Similarly for the given expression

log_x(\frac{1}{8})=-\frac{3}{2}

We can write,

x^{-\frac{3}{2}}=\frac{1}{8}

Using property of negative exponents [a^{-b}=\frac{1}{a^b}]

\frac{1}{x^{\frac{3}{2}}}=\frac{1}{8}

So we can write that  as:

x^{\frac{3}{2}}=8

Writing the exponents in radical form as a^{\frac{b}{c}}=(\sqrt[c]{a})^b

(\sqrt{x})^3=8

Taking cube root both sides to remove the cube.

\sqrt[3]{(\sqrt{x})^3}=\sqrt[3]{8}

\sqrt x=2

Squaring both sides to remove square root.

(\sqrt x)^2=2^2

∴ x=4

6n − 2(4n + 7) + 4 = -2
vodomira [7]

Answer:

n = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 ((6n -  2 • (4n + 7)) +  4) -  -2  = 0

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  -2n - 8  =   -2 • (n + 4)

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 -2 • (n + 4)  = 0

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

4.1      Solve :    -2   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

4.2      Solve  :    n+4 = 0

Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :

                     n = -4

One solution was found :

                  n = -4

X/6 - 10 =2 <br><br><br> Show your work.
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

x/6 - 10 = 2

x/6 = 12 (add 10 to both sides)

x = 72 (multiply 6 to both sides)
