-2a - 4 > -8
add 4 to both sides

-2a - 4 + 4 > -8 + 4
-2a > -4

divide both sides by -2 AND change the direction of the sign because we're dividing by a negative

a < 2

ANSWER: a < 2

Hope this helps! :)

Hey there!

Firstly, we have to “add” the number “4” on each of your sides

Like: -2a -4 + 4> -8 +4
Cancel: -4 + 4 because it will give you “0”
Keep: -8+4 because it gives you “-4” and we have paid it off with -2a

Like: -2a>-4

Divide each of the sides by “-2”

Like: -2a/2 > -4/-2

Cancel: -2a/2 because it gives us “1”

Keep: -4/-2 because that’ll give us the answer on the left side of the inequality

So, a < 2 would be your answer

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day

For a continuous random variable X, P(20 ≤ X ≤ 40) = 0.15 and P(X &gt; 40) = 0.16. Calculate the following probabilities. (Leave
yan [13]

Answer:

For a continuous random variable X, P(20 ≤ X ≤ 40) = 0.15 and P(X > 40) = 0.16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, P(x > 40) = 0.16

a). P(x < 40) = 1 - P(x > 40)

                   =  1 - 0.16

                    = 0.84

b). P(x < 20) = 1 - P(x\geq 20)

                    = 1 - {P(20 ≤ X ≤ 40) + P(X > 40)}

                    = 1 - (0.15 + 0.16 )  

                    = 1 - 0.31

                    = 0. 69

c). P(x = 40) = 0; The probability that a continuous variable assume a particular value is zero.

Each letter of the word "mathematics" is written on a separate piece of paper and put into a bag. you are asked to pick a random
yarga [219]
M,t,h,c,s are all consonants. "Mathematics" has 11 letters and 7 of them are consonants and the other 4 are vowels. 100%/11 = 9.091. 9.091 x 4 = 36.36. So, there is a 36.36 % (4/11) chance that you will pick a vowel and a 63.64 % (7/11) chance that you will pick a consonant. 

I hope that helps!!!

It was Robin's birthday and she knew she was going to have a good day. She was driving to work, and when she turned on the radio
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

1.Random circumstance: Color of traffic light when Robin approaches the main intersection. Possible outcomes: Traffic light is green when Robin arrives, or Traffic light is not green when Robin arrives.

2.Random circumstance: Song on the radio when first turned on. Possible outcomes: Robin's favorite song is playing, or Robin's favorite song is not playing.

4.Random circumstance: Nearest available parking space. Possible outcomes: Robin finds an empty parking space in front of the building, or Robin does not find an empty parking space in front of the building.

Step-by-step explanation:

A random circumstance is one whose outcome cannot be predicted because we either do not have the full details of the matter or it has not been confirmed yet by a reliable source. In the short description of events provided above;

1.The color of the traffic light is unpredictable because it is not under the control of the drivers but is automated.

2. Robin's favorite song playing on the radio is a random circumstance because she has no control over what song is played. So, she might as well have tuned in and it would be her least favorite song playing.

3. Robin driving into the office and finding the parking space empty is a random circumstance because it is not predictable. She might have come in and found the entire space filled.
