X=-6

3x+5=2x-1
Subtract 2x from both sides
x+5=-1
Subtract 5 from both sides
x=-6

Check:
3(-6)+5=-13
And
2(-6)-1=-13

Sailboats use block and tackle systems to reduce the effort needed to move or raise the sails. If a block and tackle has five ro

nata0808 [166]

The mechanical advantage of the block and tackle is that it is easier to lift a lock using multiple parts of the rope that go around the system of pulleys. If there are no friction, the mechanical advantage is exactly equal to the number of parts of the rope that are attached to the load.

Answer:A)The conditional relative frequency among widowed employees of those widowed working at grade 2 or below= 28/42 = 66.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

In a two way frequency table, conditional relative frequency is it’s a fraction that tells us how many elements of of a group have a certain characteristic.

Here In a study about the relationship between marital status and job level, 8,235 males at a large manufacturing firm reported their job grade (from 1 to 4, with 4 being the highest) and their marital status.

from the given two way frequency table,

Number of widowed employees at grade 1 =8

Number of widowed employees at grade 2=20

∴ Number of widowed employees at grade 2 or below=8+20=28

And the total widowed employees working =42

Now the conditional relative frequency among widowed employees of those widowed working at grade 2 or below= $\frac{\text{Number of widowed employees at grade 2 or below}}{\text{Total widowed employees}}=\frac{28}{42}=0.6667=66.67%$

Therefore, the conditional relative frequency among widowed employees of those widowed working at grade 2 or below= 28/42 = 66.67%

eduard

Answer:

0.425

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Outcome 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Number of Trials 4 2 5 3 2 6 6 3 6 3

The experimental probability of obtaining an odd number :

Odd outcomes are : 1, 3, 5, 7, 9

Total number of trials = Σ(4 2 5 3 2 6 6 3 6 3) = 40

Total number of odd outcomes = (2+3+6+3+3) = 17

Experimental probability = number of prefferwd outcomes / total number of trials

Experimental P(odd). = 17 / 40 = 0.425

The theoretical probability of getting an odd number :

Required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Number of odd values / total number of values

5 / 10 = 1/2
