Is x=3 a solution for the equation: 3x + 7 = 13 Why or why not ?

Mathematics

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two different ways to do this - solve for x in the given equation or substitute the value for x and see if you get a true statement.

3x + 7 = 13 subtract 7 from both sides

3x = 6 divide by 3 on both sides

x = 2

3(3) + 7 = 13

9 + 7 = 13

16 ≠ 13

Therefore, x = 3 is not a solution for 3x + 7 = 13.

O is the centre of the circle, EF is a tangent, angle BCE = 28°, angle ACD = 31°

andriy [413]

Answer

a. 28˚

b. 76˚

c. 104˚

d. 56˚

Step-by-step explanation

Given,

∠BCE=28° ∠ACD=31° & line AB=AC .

According To the Question,

a. the angle between a chord and a tangent through one of the end points of the chord is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.(Alternate Segment Theorem) Thus, ∠BAC=28°

b. We Know The Sum Of All Angles in a triangle is 180˚, 180°-∠CAB(28°)=152° and ΔABC is an isosceles triangle, So 152°/2=76˚

thus , ∠ABC=76° .

c. We know the Sum of all angles in a triangle is 180° and opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral(ABCD) add up to 180˚,

Thus, ∠ACD + ∠ACB = 31° + 76° ⇔ 107°

Now, ∠DCB + ∠DAB = 180°(Cyclic Quadrilateral opposite angle)

∠DAB = 180° - 107° ⇔ 73°

& We Know, ∠DAC+∠CAB=∠DAB ⇔ ∠DAC = 73° - 28° ⇔ 45°

Now, In Triangle ADC Sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

∠ADC = 180° - (31° + 45°) ⇔ 104˚

d. ∠COB = 28°×2 ⇔ 56˚ , because With the Same Arc(CB) The Angle at circumference are half of the angle at the centre

Consider the function given by the graph. What are these values?

Natalija [7]

As you see in the picture, there are two lines that could maybe represent two linear functions. However, this is not true because of the solid point and the hollow point. This is an inequality equation that has points of discontinuity.

Points of discontinuity are breaks in the graph that are a result of an undefined point when the f(x) is substituted with a point of x that is not part of the solution. So, technically, the graph is made from one rational expression.

So, when it says f(-2), this is the y-value at x=-2. That means f(-2)=2, f(0)=3 and f(4)=-1. Specifically, there are two points at x=0, but we take the solid point only.

Ten experts rated a newly developed chocolate chip cookie on a scale of 1 to 50. Their ratings were: 34, 35, 41, 28, 26, 29, 32,

miskamm [114]

The mean deviation of the ratings is 4.12

Explanation

The ratings of the ten experts are: 34, 35, 41, 28, 26, 29, 32, 36, 38 and 40

So, the mean of all ratings $=\frac{34+35+41+28+26+29+32+36+38+40}{10}= \frac{339}{10}=33.9$

The formula for Mean deviation $= \sum \frac{|x_{i}- \mu|}{N}$ , where $x_{i}$ is the given data from $i=1$ to $i=10$ , $\mu$ is the mean of the data and $N$ is the total number of data. So.....

$|x_{1}-\mu |= |34-33.9|=0.1\\ |x_{2}-\mu|=|35-33.9|=1.1\\ |x_{3}-\mu |=|41-33.9|=7.1\\ |x_{4}-\mu |=|28-33.9|=5.9\\ |x_{5}-\mu |=|26-33.9|=7.9\\ |x_{6}-\mu |=|29-33.9|=4.9\\|x_{7}-\mu |=|32-33.9|=1.9\\ |x_{8}-\mu |=|36-33.9|=2.1\\ |x_{9}-\mu |=|38-33.9|=4.1\\ |x_{10}-\mu |=|40-33.9|=6.1$

So, the Mean deviation $=\sum \frac{|x_{i}-\mu |}{N}=\frac{0.1+1.1+7.1+5.9+7.9+4.9+1.9+2.1+4.1+6.1}{10} = \frac{41.2}{10}=4.12$
