Answer:

Simplified this will be -9x divided by x^2+8

Step-by-step explanation:

-6+3x divided by x^2-6x+8

Use communicative property to simplify like terms

(-6x, 3x, -6x are all simplified terms that when added up together make -9x)

The standard deviation of a normal random variable x is $20. given that p(x ≤ $10) = 0.1841. from this we can determine that the
attashe74 [19]
Let \mu be the mean of X. Then

\mathbb P(X\le10)=0.1841\iff\mathbb P\left(\underbrace{\dfrac{X-\mu}{20}}_Z\le\dfrac{10-\mu}{20}\right)=0.1841

For a random variable Z following the standard normal distribution, we have

\mathbb P(Z\le z)=0.1841\implies z\approx-0.8999

Transform the random variable to get this critical value in terms of \mu:

\dfrac{10-\mu}{20}=-0.8999\implies\mu\approx27.997

By knowing the <em>blood</em> pressure and applying the <em>quadratic</em> formula, the age of a man whose normal <em>blood</em> pressure is 129 mm Hg is 40 years old.

<h3>How to use quadratic equations to determine the age of a man in terms of blood pressure</h3>

In this problem we have a <em>quadratic</em> function that models the <em>blood</em> pressure as a function of age. As the latter is known, we must use the quadratic formula to determine the former:

129 = 0.006 · A² - 0.02 ·A + 120

0.006 · A² - 0.02 · A - 9 = 0

A = \frac{0.02 \pm \sqrt{0.006^{2}-4\cdot (0.006)\cdot (- 9)}}{2\cdot (0.006)}

A = 1.667 + 38.733

A = 40

By knowing the <em>blood</em> pressure and applying the <em>quadratic</em> formula, the age of a man whose normal <em>blood</em> pressure is 129 mm Hg is 40 years old.

HELP PLEASEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Andrew [12]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

We\ know\ that\\ Mean=\frac{Total\ Sum\ of\ observations}{Total\ number\ of\ observations} \\Here,\\Total\ Sum\ of\ the\ given\ observations\ are :\\9+9+2+8+9+8+7+8+3\\=63\\Total\ number\ of\ the\ given\ observations\ are :\\=9

Hence,\\Mean=\frac{63}{9}\\=7

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, please help​
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

dy/dx= 7- 3x^-1/2

when X=1

dy/dx = 4

as it is a tangent M1=M2=4

now,

at gradient 4 and point (1,1)

equation of curve is ,

y-y1= m(x-x1)

or, y-1=4(x-1)

or, y-1=4x-4

or, y-4x= -3

or, 4x-y=3
