Answer:

n=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8n + 12 + -5n = 21

Reorder the terms:

12 + 8n + -5n = 21

Combine like terms: 8n + -5n = 3n

12 + 3n = 21

Solving

12 + 3n = 21

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + 3n = 21 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + 3n = 21 + -12

3n = 21 + -12

Combine like terms: 21 + -12 = 9

3n = 9

Divide each side by '3'.

n = 3

Simplifying

n = 3

The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the time it takes for a person to choose a birthday gift.

Answer:

The probability that X is less than 32 minutes is 0.736.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the time it takes for a person to choose a birthday gift. If X has an average value of 24 minutes.

To find : What is the probability that X is less than 32 minutes?

Solution :

If X has an average value of 24 minutes.

i.e. $\lambda=24$

The random variable X is exponentially distributed, where X represents the time it takes for a person to choose a birthday gift.

The exponentially function is $\frac{1}{\lambda}e^{-\frac{x}{\lambda}}$

The function form according to question is

$f(x)=\{\frac{1}{24}e^{-\frac{x}{24}}, x>0\}$

The probability that X is less than 32 minutes is

$P[x$

Therefore, the probability that X is less than 32 minutes is 0.736.

What is the slope of the linear function?

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: Answer choice D

Step-by-step explanation: The linear function is y = -5/3 + 5, which means that the slope is 5/3. The fact that the slope is ascending to the left also eliminates the first two choices.

Please heeeeeeeeelp! Ill give brainliest!

Alinara [238K]

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so as u know the angles of a triangle add up to 180.

So we will be using that for help.

S+R+T=180

12x+13x+12x-4+2-3=180

37x-5=180

37x=185

x=5

Now we will plug in the value for x to find each angle

S= 13(5)-4

=61

T=12(5)-3

=57

R=12(5)+2

=62

Hope this helped:)
