Hi there!


Looks like a lot of work is going on here.


Let's start by solving this equation for the x.


5x + 20y = 4


Step 1) Add -20y to both sides.


5x + 20y + - 20y = 4 - 20y 5x = -20y + 4


Step 2) Divide both sides by 5.


\frac{5x}{5}  = \frac{-20y + 4}{5}


x = -4y +  \frac{4}{5}


Final Answer:


x = -4y +  \frac{4}{5}


Now, let's solve for y.


Step 1) Add -5x to both sides.


5x + 20y + - 5x = 4 + - 5x 20y = -5x + 4


Step 2) Divide both sides by 20.


\frac{20y}{20} =  \frac{-5x + 4}{20}


y =  \frac{-1}{4} x +  \frac{1}{5}


Final Answer:


y =  \frac{-1}{4} x +  \frac{1}{5}


Hope this helps! :D


Hint - When you have two variables in an equation, and you want to solve for one, the other will end up in your answer. :)

A sculptor has just finished creating a large wooden sphere for a sculpture he is working on. The sphere has a radius of 4.3 fee
Licemer1 [7]
Density = mass/volume

the mass is 10578.9 pounds

the volume of a sphere is v = 4/3 πr^3

v = (4/3) (π) (4.3)^3
v = 333.04

10578.9 / 333.04 = 31.76

the final density is 31.76!!

In a certain population of the eastern thwump bird, the wingspan of the individual birds follows an approximately normal distrib
Greeley [361]

Answer:

a) P(48 < x < 58) = 0.576

b) P(X ≥ 1) = 0.9863

c) E(X) 2.88

d) P(x < 48) = 0.212

e) P(X > 2) = 0.06755

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the wingspan of the birds = μ = 53.0 mm

The standard deviation = σ = 6.25 mm

a) Probability of a bird having a wingspan between 48 mm and 58 mm can be found by modelling the problem as a normal distribution problem.

To solve this, we first normalize/standardize the two wingspans concerned.

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ

For wingspan 48 mm

z = (48 - 53)/6.25 = - 0.80

For wingspan 58 mm

z = (58 - 53)/6.25 = 0.80

To determine the probability that the wingspan of the first bird chosen is between 48 and 58 mm long. P(48 < x < 58) = P(-0.80 < z < 0.80)

We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities

P(48 < x < 58) = P(-0.80 < z < 0.80) = P(z < 0.8) - P(z < -0.8) = 0.788 - 0.212 = 0.576

b) The probability that at least one of the five birds has a wingspan between 48 and 58 mm = 1 - (Probability that none of the five birds has a wingspan between 48 and 58 mm)

P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X=0)

Probability that none of the five birds have a wingspan between 48 and 58 mm is a binomial distribution problem.

Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = number of birds = 5

x = Number of successes required = number of birds with wingspan between 48 mm and 58 mm = 0

p = probability of success = Probability of one bird having wingspan between 48 mm and 58 mm = 0.576

q = probability of failure = Probability of one bird not having wingspan between 48 mm and 58 mm = 1 - 0.576 = 0.424

P(X=0) = ⁵C₀ (0.576)⁰ (1 - 0.576)⁵ = (1) (1) (0.424)⁵ = 0.0137

The probability that at least one of the five birds has a wingspan between 48 and 58 mm = P(X≥1) = 1 - P(X=0) = 1 - 0.0137 = 0.9863

c) The expected number of birds in this sample whose wingspan is between 48 and 58 mm.

Expected value is a sum of each variable and its probability,

E(X) = mean = np = 5×0.576 = 2.88

d) The probability that the wingspan of a randomly chosen bird is less than 48 mm long

Using the normal distribution tables again

P(x < 48) = P(z < -0.8) = 1 - P(z ≥ -0.8) = 1 - P(z ≤ 0.8) = 1 - 0.788 = 0.212

e) The probability that more than two of the five birds have wingspans less than 48 mm long = P(X > 2) = P(X=3) + P(X=4) + P(X=5)

This is also a binomial distribution problem,

Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = number of birds = 5

x = Number of successes required = number of birds with wingspan less than 48 mm = more than 2 i.e. 3,4 and 5.

p = probability of success = Probability of one bird having wingspan less than 48 mm = 0.212

q = probability of failure = Probability of one bird not having wingspan less than 48 mm = 1 - p = 0.788

P(X > 2) = P(X=3) + P(X=4) + P(X=5)

P(X > 2) = 0.05916433913 + 0.00795865476 + 0.00042823218

P(X > 2) = 0.06755122607 = 0.06755
