Mathematics
1 answer:
erik [133]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

-2(x + 5) = -2

-2(x) -2(5) = -2

Multiply:

-2(x) -2(5) = -2

-2x - 10 = -2

Add 10 on both sides:

-2x - 10 = -2

      +10    +10

-2x = 8

Divide by -2 on both sides:

-2x = 8

/-2     /-2

x = -4

A new gas- and electric-powered hybrid car has recently hit the market. The distance traveled on 1 gallon of fuel is normally di
Doss [256]

Answer:

a) P [ Z > 70 ]  = 0.1075  or 10.75 %

b)  P [ Z < 60 ] = 0.1038   or  10.38 %

c)  P [ 55 ≤ Z ≤ 70 ] =  0.8882   or 88.82 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution  μ = 65    and σ = 4

a) The probability of the car travels more than 70 miles per gallon is:

P [ Z > 70 ]  =  (Z-μ) ÷ σ  ⇒   P [ Z > 70 ] = (70-65) ÷4     P [ Z > 70 ] = 1.25

the point 1.25 corresponds at values, from left tail up to 70 so we must go and look for the area for the point 1.24 which is 0.8925. Then we have the area or probability of all cars traveling up  to 70 miles therefore  we have to subtract 1 -0,8925

P [ Z > 70 ]  = 0.1075  or 10.75 %

b)The probability of the car travels less than 60 miles per gallon is:

P [ Z < 60 ]  = ( 60 - μ ) ÷  σ ⇒  P [ Z < 60 ] = (60-65)÷ 4    P [ Z < 60 ] = -1.25

Again -1.25 corresponds to 60 miles per gallon threfore we move to the left and find for point -1.26  which area is 0.1038 so

P [ Z < 60 ] = 0.1038     10.38 %

c) P [ 55 ≤ Z ≤ 70]

For  point  Z = 70 or 1.25 (case a above)  P [ Z ≤ 70] = (70-65)÷4  

P [ Z ≤ 70] = 1.25

In this case we got the whole area from the left tail up to 1.25

P [ Z ≤ 70]  = 0.8944 (includes the area of the point from the left tail up to the point assocciated to 55 miles and for that reason we have to subtract that area)

P [ Z ≥ 55 ]  = (55-65) ÷ 4     P [ Z ≥ 55 ] = -2.5  and the area is 0.0062

So P [ 55 ≤ Z ≤ 70 ] =  0.8944 - 0.0062  = 0.8882

10(5 - n) - 1 = 29<br><br> n = ?<br> Help!
nydimaria [60]

n = 2

distribute and simplify left side of equation

50 - 10n - 1 = 29

49 - 10n = 29 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

- 10n = 29 - 49 = - 20

n = \frac{-20}{-10} = 2
