8-6x>-18 solve for x

Mathematics

EleoNora [17]2 years ago

8 0

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Well all i did was guess a random number from 1-10 so I could see what numbers make the equation bigger than -18 and the fist thing I guessed was 5 so this is what I did

8-6*5=-22

And them I said let me see if any multiples equal -18 so I went to for and did this

8-6*4=-16

That's when I guessed the answer if i looked at the sign correctly!

Which pair of words describes this system of equations 3y=9x-6 2y+6x=4

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Consistent and dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$3y = 9x - 6$

$2y + 6x = 4$

Required

The words that describe the equations

Make y the subject in (2)

$2y + 6x = 4$

Collect like terms

$2y = 4 - 6x$

Divide through by 2

$y = 2 - 3x$

Substitute: $y = 2 - 3x$ in (1)

$3y = 9x - 6$

$3(2 - 3x) = 9x - 6$

$6 - 9x = 9x - 6$

Collect like terms

$9x+9x = 6+6$

$18x = 12$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{12}{18}$

Simplify

$x = \frac{2}{3}$

Substitute $x = \frac{2}{3}$ in $y = 2 - 3x$

$y = 2 - 3*\frac{2}{3}$

$y = 2 - 2$

$y =0$

So, we have:

$x = \frac{2}{3}$ and $y =0$

The system is consistent because it has at least 1 solution

The system is dependent because it has more than 1 solution

A student answers a multiple-choice examination question that offers four possible answers. Suppose the probability that the stu

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The value is $P(A | W) = 0.941$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The probability that the student knows the answer to the question is $P(A) = 0.8$

The probability that that the student will guess is $P(G) = 0.2$

The probability that that the student get the correct answer given that the student guessed is $P(W /G) = 0.25$

Here W denotes that the student gets the correct answer

Generally it a certain fact that if the student knows the answer he would get it correctly

So the probability the the student got answer given that he knows it is

$P(W | A) = 1$

Generally from Bayes theorem we can mathematically evaluate the probability that the student knows the answer given that he got it correctly as follows

$P(A | W) = \frac{ P(A) * P(W | A )}{ P(A) * P(W | A) + P(G) * P(W| G)}$

=> $P(A | W) = \frac{ 0.8 * 1}{ 0.8 * 1+ 0.2 * 0.25}$

=> $P(A | W) = 0.941$

Please help with this acellus question!

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The value of x is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle

∵ A segment joining two points lie on the two side

∵ This segment is parallel to the third side

∴ This segment divides the two sides into parts that have the same ratio

→ That means x over 2x - 3 equal to 10 over 14

∵ $\frac{x}{2x-3}$ = $\frac{10}{14}$

→ By using cross multiplication

∴ 10 × (2x - 3) = x × 14

∴ 10(2x) - 10(3) = 14x

∴ 20x - 30 = 14x

→ Add 30 to both sides

∵ 20x - 30 + 30 = 14x + 30

∴ 20x = 14x + 30

→ Subtract 14x from both sides

∵ 20x - 14x = 14x - 14x + 30

∴ 6x = 30

→ Divide both sides by 6

∴ x = 5

∴ The value of x is 5
