We want to subtract 8x + 3 from -2x+5. We can create an expression to represent this.

-2x + 5 - (8x + 3).


After this, lets distribute the - sign (think of this like expanding something with -1).

-2x + 5 - 8x - 3


Lastly, we just need to combine like terms.

-2x + 5 - 8x - 3


Combine the 5 and -3 to get 2.

-2x + 2 - 8x


Combine the -2x and -8x to get -10x.

-10x + 2


The final answer to the question is therefore A.

Please help. A trapezoid has base measures of 10 and 14 inches and a height of 6 inches. What is the area?
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

84 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area by first finding the average of 10 and 14 (it is 12) and then multiplying this result (12) by 6:  area of trapezoid = 84 in^2.

A May 2000 Gallup poll found that 38% of the people in a random sample of 1,012 adult Americans said that they

Answer:

x P(X)

0 0.238

1 0.438

2 0.269

3 0.055

11.

0.707

There is 70.7% chance that at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost

12.

1.14≅1

There will be one adult out of three we expect to believe in the ghost

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability distribution is constructed using binomial distribution.

We have to construct the probability distribution of the number adults believe in ghosts out of three adults. so,

x=0,1,2,3

n=3

p=probability of adults believe in ghosts=0.38

The binomial distribution formula

nCxp^xq^n-x=3cx0.38^x0.62^3-x

is computed for x=0,1,2,3 and the results depicts the probability distribution of the number adults believe in ghosts out of three adults.

x P(X)

0 0.238

1 0.438

2 0.269

3 0.055

11.

P(at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost )= P(x=1)+P(x=2)=0.437+0.269=0.707

P(at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost )=70.7%

12. E(x)=n*p

here n=3 adults and p=0.38

E(x)=3*0.38=1.14

so we expect one adult out of three will believe in the ghosts.

Riangle XYZ was dilated by a scale factor of 2 to create triangle ACB and sin ∠X = 5 over 5 and 59 hundredths.
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Part A: We know parts of our triangle since the cosine of X is given.  XY = 2.5 and XZ = 5.59 and since it is a scale factor of 2, ABC is most likely similar to XYZ by angle measures and the special relationship is, that they are all equal, because with a scale factor of two, all the ratios in triangle ABC will simplify to the ratios of triangle XYZ. 

Part B: Because triangle XYZ was dilated with a scale factor of 2 to create triangle ABC, just multiply the sides by 2 to get the sides AC and CB, which is AB = 2 times XY and CB = 2 times XZ. 

2. We can first find the hypothenuse by adding squaring 8 and 6 to have 100. Then square root it to have 10 as our hypothenuse

Now we can use sin x = 6/10 and cos y = 6/10

3. Since this is using the angle of elevation, we can say that the length of side AB is perpendicular from the perspective of angle of elevation, and the hypotenuse's length is known, so in this case, we can use a sine or cosecant ratio. 

Sin(40 Degrees) = AB/100

AB = 100 x sin(40 Degrees) ft

AB ~ 64.28 ft which can be rounded to 64 ft

The triangle I drew was a right triangle with points A, B, and C. 40 is on point C while 100 ft was on the hypotenuse. The kite was near A and the ground was between segment B and C.

4. Since the angle and Adjacent line is given and it is asking us to find H which is the opposite, we well try and be using Tangent = opposite/adjacent 

500 ft Multiply by tan39 = 405 (Estimated after rounding to nearest hundreth 404.892).

To be honest, I didn't know so much about these questions but this might give a better understanding and if I'm wrong then I apologize.

Can someone help me with this math problem, please? Thanks!
vichka [17]
Answer: D, -1
First, plug in the value -1 for x in f(x) first. \frac{1}{(-1)^2+1} can then be simplified to \frac{1}{2} because (-1)^2=1. Next, put the value -1 for x in the equation g(x). This will look like - \frac{1}{2}.

The final step is to evaluate f(x) divided by g(x). f(x) = 1/2 and g(x) = -1/2, so when divided, you get -1.
