Step-by-step explanation:

Vanessa is trying to solve the equation for x.

The given equation is -3 + 4x = 9, or 4x - 3 = 9

She shouldn't be subtracting any number in the beginning. Instead, she should do the opposite of PEMDAS:

1) Vanessa should add 3 to both sides:

4x - 3 (+3) = 9 (+3)

4x = 9 + 3

4x = 12

2) Next, she should divide 4 from both sides:

(4x)/4 = (12)/4

x = 12/4

x = 3

Vanessa's answer will be x = 3.

Use implicit differentiation to find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point.

andrew11 [14]

Differentiating both sides of

$x^2 + 2xy - y^2 + x = 20$

with respect to $x$ yields

$2x + 2y + 2x \dfrac{dy}{dx} - 2y \dfrac{dy}{dx} + 1 = 0 \\\\ \implies (2x-2y) \dfrac{dy}{dx} = -1 - 2x - 2y \\\\ \implies \dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{1 + 2x + 2y}{2(y-x)}$

At the point (3, 4) (so $x=3$ and $y=4$ ), the tangent line has slope

$\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{1 + 2\times3 + 2\times4}{2(4-3)} = \dfrac{15}2$

Then the tangent line to (3, 4) has equation

$y - 4 = \dfrac{15}2 (x - 3) \implies \boxed{y = \dfrac{15}2 x - \dfrac{37}2}$

Consider the data set

Serhud [2]

Answer: 3.496

Explanation: You find the mean, which is 57.714. Next, you subtract the mean from each number in the dataset, |55 - 57.714|, |59 - 57.714|, etc. You then add all of those numbers together and divide them by the amount of numbers like you would determining the mean. This gives you 3.496. Also sorry for taking so long to respond I’m on my phone and cannot type as fast as I would on pc.

he probability that the San Jose Sharks will win any given game is 0.3694 based on a 13-year win history of 382 wins out of 1034

garri49 [273]

Answer:

0.0071 = 0.71% probability that the San Jose Sharks win 9 games in the upcoming month.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the Sharks win, or they do not. The probability of the Sharks winning a game is independent of any other game. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
