Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Genes are our genetic makeup. The way we look, act, talk etc. The way they work is to make protiens for our DNA, as in produce "specific" proteins for ourself.

Solve x − 5y = 6 for x.
pentagon [3]

Answer:

All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve a system of equations by elimination

With the equation given, you can solve for y to get: y = \frac{1}{5}x - \frac{6}{5}

Then, substitute this value in on the equation.

x - 5(\frac{1}{5}x - \frac{6}{5}) = 6

x - x + 6 = 6

6 = 6

The solution is all real numbers

Wires manufactured for use in a computer system are specified to have resistances between 0.11 and 0.13 ohms. The actual measure
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

a) P(0.11

And we can find this probability with this difference and with the normal standard table or excel:

P(-1.11

b) P(0.11 < \bar X < 0.13)

And we can use the z score defined by:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And using the limits we got:

z = \frac{0.11-0.12}{\frac{0.009}{\sqrt{4}}}= -2.22

z = \frac{0.13-0.12}{\frac{0.009}{\sqrt{4}}}= 2.22

And we want to find this probability:

P(-2.22< Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the resitances of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(0.12,0.009)  

Where \mu=0.12 and \sigma=0.009

We are interested on this probability

P(0.11

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(0.11

And we can find this probability with this difference and with the normal standard table or excel:

P(-1.11

Part b

We select a sample size of n =4. And since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And we want this probability:

P(0.11 < \bar X < 0.13)

And we can use the z score defined by:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And using the limits we got:

z = \frac{0.11-0.12}{\frac{0.009}{\sqrt{4}}}= -2.22

z = \frac{0.13-0.12}{\frac{0.009}{\sqrt{4}}}= 2.22

And we want to find this probability:

P(-2.22< Z

Answer:

The correct option is C.

C) -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the term which is being divided is called a dividend. The term by which the dividend is getting divided is called a divisor. The quotient is the term we get after dividing the dividend by a divisor.

Here in this case, the dividend is written.

-x²    x    x

which in the equation form is written as

-x² + x + x

add the x terms to simplify

-x² + 2x

The divisor is given as x, divide the equation by x:

(-x² + 2x)/x

(-x²/x) + (2x/x)

-x+2

Which is the quotient.
