Answer:

x=2.52

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must isolate x on one side of the equation. To start, we take away 17.56 on the right side of the equation. What ever we do to one side we must to the other side. Subtract 17.56 from BOTH sides of the equation. now we are left with 12.60=5x. We still have to get x completely by itself. To do this, we divide 5 on both sides of the equation. The reason why we divide is because we have 5 times x, or just 5x. The opposite of multiplying is dividing; if we divide, the x will isolate and the 5 will cancel out. We are now left with 2.52=x. To prove that the answer is x=2.52, let's substitute x for 2.52 in the original equation: 30.16=17.56+5(2.52). The final answer we get is 30.16=30.16. This proves that x=2.52 is correct for this equation.

Hope this helps :)

First subtract 17.56 to each side
12.6 = 5x
Divide by 5 to each side
2.52 = x

Suppose that 80% of all trucks undergoing a brake inspection at a certain inspection facility pass the inspection. Consider grou
Gwar [14]

Answer:

P=0.147

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know 80% of the trucks have good brakes. That means that probability the 1 randomly selected truck has good brakes is P(good brakes)=0.8 . So the probability that 1 randomly selected truck has bad brakes Q(bad brakes)=1-0.8-0.2

We have to find the probability, that at least 9 trucks from 16 have good brakes, however fewer than 12 trucks from 16 have good brakes. That actually means the the number of trucks with good brakes has to be 9, 10 or 11 trucks from 16.

We have to find the probability of each event (9, 10 or 11 trucks from 16 will pass the inspection) .  To find the required probability 3 mentioned probabilitie have to be summarized.

So P(9/16 )=  C16 9 * P(good brakes)^9*Q(bad brakes)^7

P(9/16 )= 16!/9!/7!*0.8^9*0.2^7= 11*13*5*16*0.8^9*0.2^7=approx 0.02

P(10/16)=16!/10!/6!*0.8^10*0.2^6=11*13*7*0.8^10*0.2^6=approx 0.007

P(11/16)=16!/11!/5!*0.8^11*0.2^5=13*21*16*0.8^11*0.2^5=approx 0.12

P(9≤x<12)=P(9/16)+P(10/16)+P(11/16)=0.02+0.007+0.12=0.147

David made a scale drawing of a mural he is going to paint. He used a scale of 1 cm=4ft. If the actual mural will be 16 feet lon
VikaD [51]

Answer:

4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale drawing is

\frac{1}{4}\ \frac{cm}{ft}

That means ----> 1 cm in the drawing represent 4 ft in the mural

so

To find out the dimensions in the drawing, multiply the actual dimension by the scale drawing factor

so

(16\ ft)(\frac{1}{4}\ \frac{cm}{ft})=4\ cm

My teacher gave us the answers but we just need to show the work for solving the problems. Please help me
Radda [10]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

16x + 22 = 134 ..... because if the two lines are parallel alternative exterior angles are congruent

16x = 134 - 22

16x = 112

\frac{16x}{16}  =  \frac{112}{16}

x = 7

hope it helps

Joe is 10 years older than James and eight years twice Joe’s age will equal three times James eight how old is Joe now.
Lady_Fox [76]
Let James be x years old
Joe = 10 + x
After 8 years
18 + x = 3(x)
18 + x = 3x
18 = 2x
x = 9

Joe is 19
James is 9
