Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6 (1/3x + 1/3) = 3 (x + 4)

(6)( $\frac{1}{3}x$ ) + ( $\frac{1}{3}$ ) = (3) (x) + (3) (4) (Distribute)

2x + 2 = 3x + 12

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

2x + 2 − 3x = 3x + 12 − 3x

−x + 2 = 12

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

−x + 2 − 2 = 12 − 2

−x = 10

Step 4: Divide both sides by -1.

$\frac{-x}{-1}$ = $\frac{10}{-1}$

x = -10

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Perform the indiated multiplication. Recalling that 6(1/3) = 2, we get:

2x + 2 = 3x + 12

Combining like terms:

-10 = x

Answer:

Initiation fee:

$400

Monthly fee:

$10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's start by calculating the monthly fee.

Over a period of 5 months (5 -> 10 months), the member paid 50 dollars more. We can divide this number by 5 to find the monthly fee. The monthly fee is $10.

Now, we can find the initiation fee. After 5 months with the gym, the member had spent $450. As we already know, $50 is the price for 5 months, so the member paid $50 in monthly fees.

We subtract $50 from the total cost ($450) to find that the initiation fee is $400.

Now, we can write the equations for each statement.

<em>Let m represent the monthly fee and i represent the initiation fee:</em>

"At the end of 5 months, a member had paid a total of $450"

5m + i = 450

"At the end of 10 months, she had paid a total of $500.

You could use 2 equations for this statement:

10m + i = 500

OR, if you use the above facts to calculate the fact that there was a $50 increase from those five months, and exclude the initiation fee and the previous five months:

5m = 50

Hope this helps!

Answer: sigma is used for measuring Population Standard Deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower case Greek letter 'sigma' is denoted by the symbol ( $\sigma$ ).

This symbol indicates the Population Standard Deviation of the data. Standard deviation means how much variation or dispersion is there in our data. Squaring of standard deviation gives us Variance which is denoted by the symbol $\sigma ^{2}$ .

Formula for Population Standard deviation ( $\sigma$ ) is = $\sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i-\mu )^{2}}{N}}$ ,

where $x_i$ = each value from our list of data

$\mu$ = Population mean of data

N = Number of observations in our data

Standard deviation can never be negative and it is very much sensitive to outliers in our data.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

59.38 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The person and his shadow form a triangle. The tree and its shadow also form a triangle. The triangles are similar triangles, so the lengths of corresponding sides are proportional.

Let the unknown tree height be h.

(person's height)/(person's shadow) = (tree height)/(tree's shadow)

(75 in.)/(48 in.) = h/(38 ft)

(25)/(16) = h/(38 ft)

16h = 25 * 38 ft

16h = 950 ft

h = 59.375 ft

h = 59.38 ft
