Step-by-step explanation:

-4(4x-9)=2x

-16x+36= 2x

-16x - 2x = -36

-18x = -36

x = 2

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 (4(2)-9)=2x

-4 (8-9) = 2x

-4 (-1) = 2x

4 = 2x

divide by 2

2 = x

A survey is conducted to find out whether people in metropolitan areas obtain their news from television (Event T), an newspaper
MrMuchimi

Answer:

e) P ( R' | T ) = 0.62857

f)  P ( T' | N ) = 0.32258

g)  P ( R' | N ) = 0.70968

h) P ( T' | N&R ) = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The probability of Television as news source P ( T ) = 0.7

- The probability of Newspaper as news source P ( N ) = 0.62

- The probability of Radio as news source P ( R ) = 0.46

- The probability of Television & Newspaper as news source P (T&N) = 0.42

- The probability of Television & Radio as news source P (T&R) = 0.26

- The probability of Radio & Newspaper as news source P (R&N) = 0.18

- The probability of all 3 as news source P ( T & R & N ) = 0.03

Find:

Given that TV is a news source, what is the probability that radio is not a news source?

Given that newspaper is a news source, what is the probability that TV is not a news source?

Given that newspaper is a news source, what is the probability that radio is not a news source?

Given that both newspaper and radio are news sources, what is the probability that TV is not a news source?

Solution:

- We will first compute the individual probability of each event occurring alone.

   P (Television is the only news source) = P(T) - P(T&R) - P(T&N) + P(T&N&R)

   P ( Only Television ) = P ( only T ) = 0.7 - 0.42 - 0.26 + 0.03 = 0.05

   P (Newspaper is the only news source) = P(N)-P(N&R)-P(T&N)+P(T&N&R)

   P ( Only Newspaper ) = P ( only N ) = 0.62 - 0.18 - 0.42 + 0.03 = 0.05

   P (Radio is the only news source) = P(R) - P(T&R) - P(N&R) + P(T&N&R)

   P ( Only Radio ) = P ( only R ) = 0.46 - 0.26 - 0.18 + 0.03 = 0.05

- Now for part e)

   We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

            P ( R' | T ) = P ( R' & T ) / P ( T )

   First compute the probability that next news source is not Radio provided it is already a source of TV.                              

            P ( R' & T ) =  P( only T ) + P ( only T & N ) = 0.05 + 0.42 - 0.03 = 0.44

Hence,

            P ( R' | T ) = 0.44 / 0.7

            P ( R' | T ) = 0.62857

- Now for part f)

   We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

            P ( T' | N ) = P ( T' & N ) / P ( N )

   First compute the probability that next news source is not TV provided it is already a source of Newspaper.                              

            P ( T' & N ) =  P( only N ) + P ( only R & N ) = 0.05 + 0.18 - 0.03 = 0.2

Hence,

           P ( T' | N ) = 0.2 / 0.62

           P ( T' | N ) = 0.32258

- Now for part g)

   We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

            P ( R' | N ) = P ( R' & N ) / P ( N )

   First compute the probability that next news source is not Radio provided it is already a source of Newspaper.                              

            P ( R' & N ) =  P( only N ) + P ( only T & N ) = 0.05 + 0.42 - 0.03 = 0.44

Hence,

            P ( R' | N ) = 0.44 / 0.62

            P ( R' | N ) = 0.70968

- Now for part h)

   We are asked for a conditional probability of the form as follows:

            P ( T' | N&R ) = P ( T' & N & R) / P ( N & R )

   First compute the probability that next news source is not TV provided it is already a source of both radio and Newspaper.                              

            P ( T' & N & R) = P ( only N & R ) = 0.18 - 0.03 = 0.15

Hence,

            P ( T' | N&R ) = 0.15 / 0.18

            P ( T' | N&R ) = 5/6

Tom can do a job in 4 hours while Sam can do it in 6 hours. How many hours would it take to complete this job if they work toget
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

12/5hours=2.4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam:6hours

Tom:4hours

This is a rate problem

Sam's rate is one job completed in 6 hours which is 1/6

Tom's rate is one job completed in 4 hours which is 1/4

Together, they could complete 1/4+1/6 of the job in y hours

We are trying to find the rate at which Sam and Tom could complete the job together, or one job in x days, for a rate of 1/y

1/4+1/6=1/y

The least common denominator is 12y

Multiplying through by the LCD which gives:

12y(1/4)+ 12y (1/6)= 12y (1/y)

3y + 2y=12

5y = 12

y=12/5 hours=2.4hours

Therefore it will take 12/5 hours or 2.4 hours to complete the job if they work together

Which of the following shows the length of the third side, in inches, of the triangle below? (1 point)
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

2, sqrt of 7633

Step-by-step explanation:

for now, we'll leave the 3rd side as x

y using the Pythagorean theorem, we can conclude that (1) 48^2+x^2=73^2 or (2) 48^2+73^2=x^2.

1. If we conclude the x isn't the longest, the x would be 3025 which is the sqrt of 55, now is invalid because the 2 smallest sides can't be more than the longest side when they add up 55+48>73 so that is invalid

2. Then, it leaves us with only 1 choice left! concluding that the 3rd side is the longest. Which the answer is sqrt of 7633

Marcus has 731 books he puts about the same number of books on each of nine shelves in his bookcase about how many books are on
kondaur [170]

Answer:

81.2222 or 81 with 2 left over

Step-by-step explanation:

731/9 = 81.2222

81.2222 rounded down = 81

9*81 = 729

731-729 = 2 left over

This is the third time I am answering the question.
