If S is the midpoint of RT , RS=8x+11 and ST =14x-1 find x

Answer:

From the given, we establish this relationship:

RS + ST = RT

RS = ST since S is the midpoint of RT

Thus, let's use RS = ST to find x,

By substituting the given expressions:

RS = ST

8x + 11 = 14x - 1

12 = 6x

x = 12/6

thus,

x = 2

Answer:

Interval is given with 97% confidence. Thus there is 3% probability that interval is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Statistics, estimated intervals are given with some confidence level. In this example person develop the interval with 97% confidence.

<em>Statistically</em>, this means that the person can be 97% sure (not 100%)  that population mean is 74.3 < µ < 78.3. There is still 3% probability that population mean falls outside of the interval.

Small sample size may also lead wrong estimates.

Sam bought an electric iron as a price of 25 less than the original price if the original price of it is $2500 at what price did
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

$2475  or $1875

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the question meant to say $25 less than the original price, it would be $2475 because $2500-$25= $2475

However, if the question meant to say that Sam bought the iron for 25% less than the original price, it would be $1875 because 2500*0.25= $625

$2500-$625= $1875

7. A sales girl is paid Rs 5,000 per month as salary and a 4 commission of % on total sales. If she receives Rs 5,192 at the end
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Sh 4800

Step-by-step explanation:

5192 - 5000 = 192 ( which is the total commission)

4% = 192

100%=? ( so we get the total sales)

100*192/4 = 4800 ( which is the total sales )

I need some help with this calculus 1 question.
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

(a) f'(1)=-4

(b) y+4x-4=0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Tangent Line of a Function</u>

Given f(x) a real differentiable function in x=a, the slope of the tangent line of the function in x=a is given by f'(x=a). Where f' is the first derivative of f.

We are given

y=x-x^5

The derivative is

y'=1-5x^4

(a) The slope of the tangent line at (1,0) is

f'(1)=1-5\cdot 1^4=-4

f'(1)=-4

(b) The equation of the tangent line can be found with the general formula of the line:

y-y_o=m(x-x_o)

Where m is the slope and the point (xo,yo) belongs to the line. We have m=-4, xo=1, yo=0, thus

y-0=-4(x-1)

Or, equivalently

y+4x-4=0
