Solve the first part of the equation
2.5 X 10 = 25
2.5 X - x = - 2.5x
+ 21
which all added together equals - 2.5x + 46

Now for the second part of the equation
- 3.5 X 3x = - 10.5x
- 3.5 X 20 = - 70
+ 84
which all added together gets you - 10.5x + 14

once you have both parts of the two sides solved, you have to start subtracting from each sides
- 2.5x + 46 = -10.5x + 14
- 46 + 46

- 2.5x = -10.5x + 60
-10.5x +10.5x

-13x = 60

60 ÷ -13x

x = -4.61

sp2606 [1]

Complete question:

He amount of time that a customer spends waiting at an airport check-in counter is a random variable with mean 8.3 minutes and standard deviation 1.4 minutes. Suppose that a random sample of n equals 47 customers is observed. Find the probability that the average time waiting in line for these customers is

a) less than 8 minutes

b) between 8 and 9 minutes

c) less than 7.5 minutes

Answer:

a) 0.0708

b) 0.9291

c) 0.0000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

n = 47

u = 8.3 mins

s.d = 1.4 mins

a) Less than 8 minutes:

P(X

P(X' < 8) = P(Z< - 1.47)

Using the normal distribution table:

NORMSDIST(-1.47)

= 0.0708

b) between 8 and 9 minutes:

P(8< X' <9) =[\frac{8-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}< \frac{X'-u}{s.d/ \sqrt{n}} < \frac{9-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}]

= P(-1.47 <Z< 6.366)

= P( Z< 6.366) - P(Z< -1.47)

Using normal distribution table,

NORMSDIST(6.366)-NORMSDIST(-1.47)

0.9999 - 0.0708

= 0.9291

c) Less than 7.5 minutes:

P(X'<7.5) = P [Z< \frac{7.5-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}]

P(X' < 7.5) = P(Z< -3.92)

NORMSDIST (-3.92)

= 0.0000

1. Triangle STU with vertices S(-4, 2) T(5, -1),
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

S’ (-5,-3)

T’ (4,-6)

U’ (-3,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, we want to apply the given transformation rule of the axes to get the coordinates of the images

The rule is that we subtract 1 from the x-coordinates and also subtract 5 from the y-coordinates

Thus, we proceed as follows;

S’ = (-4-1, 2-5) = (-5,-3)

T’ = (5-1, -1-5) = (4,-6)

U’ = (-2-1,-2-5) = (-3,-7)
