Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is based on Secant Secant theorem.
Secant Secant theorem gives us the following formula:
(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC
From the above question we have the following parameters
AB = 5
BD = x
AC = 7.5
CE = 4.5
Hence,
(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC
(5 + x)5 = (7.5 + 4.5)7.5
25 + 5x = 90
Collect like terms
5x = 90 - 25
5x = 65
x = 65/5
x = 13
Answer: the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles is 0.067
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the life expectancy of a particular brand of tire is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = life expectancy of the brand of tire in miles.
µ = mean
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 40000 miles
σ = 5000 miles
The probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles
P(x = 47500)
For x = 47500,
z = (40000 - 47500)/5000 = - 1.5
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.067
The length of the yard is 25ft.
In order to find this we first need to set up variables for the length and the width. Since we don't know anything about the width, we'll set it as x. Then, we know the length is equal to ten more than three times the width. Since the width is x, we can write the length as 3x + 10. Now we can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle to solve for x.
2l + 2w = P
2(3x + 10) + 2(x) = 60
6x + 20 + 2x = 60
8x + 20 = 60
8x = 40
x = 5
Now that we have a value for x, we can plug into the length equation and find the length.
3x + 10
3(5) + 10
15 + 10
25
Answer:
J. 19.7
Step-by-step explanation:
SOH<em>(</em><em>sine = </em><em>opposite side/hypotenuse)</em> CAH TOA
sin 80° = RS/20
=> 0.985 = RS/20
=> RS = 20 × 0.985 = 19.7
Answer:
3 > x
Step-by-step explanation:
–2(5 – 4x) < 6x – 4
Step 1: –10 + 8x < 6x – 4
Step 2: –10 < –2x – 4
Step 3: –6 < –2x
Step 4: divide each side by by -2, remembering to flip the inequality
-6/-2 > -2/-2
3 > x
