Answer:

number x = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Three times the sum of a number and 4 is the same as 18 more than the number.

To find : what is the number.

Solution : We have given a statement

According to question :

Let the number= x

Sum of the number and 4 = x + 4

Three times the sum of the number and 4 = 3 ( x +4).

18 more than a number = 18 + x .

Three times the sum of a number and 4 is the same as 18 more than the number.

3 (x+4) = 18 + x

On distributing 3 over ( x+4)

3x + 12 = 18 + x

On subtracting both sides by 12

3x = 18 -12 +x

3x = 6+x

On On subtracting both sides by x

3x -x =6

2x = 6

On dividing both sides by 2

x = 3.

To verify plug x = 3 in 3x + 12 = 18 + x

3(3)+12 =18+3

9+12 = 18+ 3

21 =21

Therefore, number x = 3.

3(x + 4) = 18 + x
3x + 12 = 18 + x
3x - x = 18 - 12
2x = 6
x = 3

How do you find your y-intercept from your x-y points?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
1. To determine the x-intercept, we set y equal to zero and solve for x. Similarly, to determine the y-intercept, we set x equal to zero and solve for y. ...

2. To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 \displaystyle y=0 y=0.

3. To find the y-intercept, set x = 0 \displaystyle x=0 x=0.

A worker at a landscape design center uses a machine to fill bags with potting soil. Assume that the quantity put in each bag fo
defon

Answer:

a) The expected value is given by:

E(X) =\frac{a+b}{2}= \frac{10+12}{2}= 11

The variance is given by:

Var(X) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12}= \frac{(12-10)^2}{12}= 0.3333

And the standard deviation is just the square root of the variance and we got:

Sd(x) = \sqrt{0.3333}= 0.5774

b) P(X

And we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

F(x) = \frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this function we got:

P(X

c) P(X>10.5)

And using the complement rule and the cumulative distribution function we got:

P(X>10.5)= 1-P(X

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we define the random variable X=quantity put in each bag , and we know that the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim Unif (a= 10, b =12)

Part a

The expected value is given by:

E(X) =\frac{a+b}{2}= \frac{10+12}{2}= 11

The variance is given by:

Var(X) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12}= \frac{(12-10)^2}{12}= 0.3333

And the standard deviation is just the square root of the variance and we got:

Sd(x) = \sqrt{0.3333}= 0.5774

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X

And we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

F(x) = \frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this function we got:

P(X

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

P(X>10.5)

And using the complement rule and the cumulative distribution function we got:

P(X>10.5)= 1-P(X
