It is nonequivalent. Figure it out this way. Think about what number has to be multiplied by both the numerator and the denominator of \frac{5x}{25x^4} to get to \frac{x^3}{5x^15}. It has to be the samee number for the one expression to be equivalent to the other. To get from 5x to x^3, we have to multiply by 1/5x^2. When we do that we get x^3. Good. Now we have to multiply the denominator by the same thing, 1/5x^2. 25x^4(\frac{1}{5}x^2)=5x^6. As you can see, they are not equivalent.

For this case we have the following expressions:

\frac{5x}{25x^4}

\frac{x^3}{5x^{15}}

We can rewrite both expressions using properties of powers.

For power properties we have:

"In a division, if we have the same base, we subtract the exponents"

Rewriting both expressions we have:

\frac{5x}{25x^4} = \frac{1}{5}x^{1-4} = \frac{1}{5}x^{-3} =  \frac{1}{5x^3}

\frac{x^3}{5x^{15}} = \frac{1}{5}x^{3-15} =\frac{1}{5}x^{-12} = \frac{1}{5x^{12}}

Answer:

True.

Rational expressions are not equivalent.

Endure all, a manufacturer of batteries claims that the lifetime of their batteries is normally distributed with a mean of 500 h
ycow [4]

Based on the z-score, an Endure All battery selected at random has a 10.56% chance of lasting more than 550 hours.

<h3>What are z-scores?</h3>

How closely a value relates to the mean of a set of values is expressed by a Z-score.

The Z-score is created using standard deviations from the mean.

A data point's total value is equal to the mean value when the Z-score of the data point is equal to 0.

So, in order to determine how far the raw score deviates from the mean, the Z score is used.

The following steps are used to determine the Z score:

z = (x - μ)/σ

We know that:  x > 550 and μ = 500, σ = 40

z = 550 - 500 / 40

z = 1.25

The graph of the normal distribution indicates:

P(z > 1.25) = 1 - P(z < 1.25)

P(z > 1.25) = 1 - 0.8944

P(z > 1.25) = 0.1056

Therefore, based on the z-score, an Endure All battery selected at random has a 10.56% chance of lasting more than 550 hours.

Which of the ordered pairs in the form (x, y) is a solution of this equation?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Both ordered pairs are solutions to this equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plug in the x and y values given in the ordered pair, you make the left side of the equation equal the right for both pairs.

Find the angle that makes them supplementary.
8090 [49]

Answer:

Mathematics NCERT Grade 7, Chapter 5: Lines and Angles is all about different lines, line segments, and angles.

A line segment has two end points.

A ray has only one end point (its vertex).

A line has no end points on either side.  

This chapter throws light on topics such as related angles, pair of lines. The chapter deals with different types of angles and lines. The types of angles discussed in this chapter are as follows:

Pairs of Angles          Condition

Two complementary angles Measures add up to 90°

Two supplementary angles Measures add up to 180°

Two adjacent angles Have a common vertex and a common arm but no common interior

Linear pair Adjacent and supplementary

A linear pair is a pair of adjacent angles whose non-common sides are opposite rays.

All the types are discussed in detail and are supplemented with examples and short questions.  

Under the topic pair of lines, various sub-sections are discussed namely:

Intersecting lines

Transversal  

Angles made by a transversal

When two lines intersect (looking like the letter X) we have two pairs of opposite angles. They are called vertically opposite angles. They are equal in measure.

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at distinct points.

Six angles discussed in this section:

1. Interior angles

2. Exterior angles

3. Pairs of Corresponding angles

4. Pairs of Alternate interior angles

5. Pairs of Alternate exterior angles

6. Pairs of interior angles on the same side of the transversal

Transversal of parallel lines
