Answer:

-6 3/10 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of ice sculpture changes -1 4/5 pounds every 1 hour.

In 3 1/2 hours, multiply the time with the weight.

-1 4/5 × 3 1/2

Multiply.

-9/5 × 7/2

-63/10 = -6 3/10

Answer:

It will decrease by 6  3/10 lbs in the 3 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate is -1 4/5 lbs  per hour

The time is 3 1/2 hours

Multiply to find the weight change

-1 4/5 * 3 1/2

Change to improper fractions

- ( 5*1 +4) /5 * ( 2* 3+1)/2

- 9/5 * 7/2

-63/10

Changing back to a mixed number

-6  3/10

It will decrease by 6  3/10 lbs in the 3 1/2 hours

Let f(x) = xe−x if x ≥ 0 and f(x) = 0 if x &lt; 0<br> Is f a probability density function?
Lynna [10]

Yes. f(x) is a PDF if

• f(x) \ge 0 for all x in the support; this is true, since e^{-x}>0 for all x, and multiplying a positive number x doesn't change this fact;

• the integral of f(x) over its support is 1; this is also true, since

\displaystyle \int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x) \, dx = \int_0^\infty xe^{-x} \, dx = 1

which can be computed by parts.

Question 2 of 10
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the base angles are the same, the side have to be the same

ML = MN

4x = x+3

Subtract x from each side

4x-x = x+3-x

3x= 3

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 3/3

x = 1

We want the length of MN

MN = x+3 = 1+3 = 4
