Answer: -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6x-3)=42

3x - 12x + 6 = 42

-9x + 6 = 42

-9x = 42 - 6

x = -36/9 = -4

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6x-3)=42

Distribute

3x -12x+6 = 42

Combine like terms

-9x+6 = 42

Subtract 6 from each side

-9x+6-6 = 42-6

-9x = 36

Divide each side by -9

-9x/-9 = 36/-9

x = -4

Math 1125 – Unit 1 ~ Gunkelman Practice for Section 1.5 The Basics of Graphing Prep Skills The table represents the Seven Summit

marta [7]

According to the table, the highest mountain in Africa is Mt. Kilimanjaro with 19,340 feet in height. The highest mountain in Antarctica is Vinson Massif with 16,864 feet in height.

Then, we subtract

$19,340-16,864=2,476$ <h2>The difference between the heights of the highest mountain in Africa and the highest mountain in Antarctica is 2,476 feet.</h2>

Use the method of completing the square to transform the quadratic equation into the equation form (x + p)2 = q. 3 + x - 3x2 = 9

Triss [41]

To transform the quadratic equation into the equation form (x + p)2 = q we shall proceed as follows:
3+x-3x^2=9
putting like terms together we have:
-3x^2+x=6
dividing through by -3 we get:
x^2-x/3=-2
but
c=(b/2a)^2
c=(-1/6)^2=1/36
thus the expression will be:
x^2-x/3+1/36=-2+1/36
1/36(6x-1)²=-71/36

the answer is:
1/36(6x-1)²=-71/36

A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between 48.0 and 58.

Yanka [14]

Answer: 0.025

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between the interval [48.0 minutes, 58.0 minutes].

The probability density function :-

$f(x)=\dfrac{1}{58-48}=\dfrac{1}{10}$

Now, the probability that a given class period runs between 50.25 and 50.5 minutes is given by :-

$\int^{50.5}_{50.25}\ f(x)\ dx\\\\=\int^{50.5}_{50.25}\ \dfrac{1}{10}\ dx\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}|x|^{50.5}_{50.25}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}\ [50.5-50.25]=\dfrac{1}{10}\times(0.25)=0.025$

Hence, the probability that a given class period runs between 50.25 and 50.5 minutes =0.025

Similarly , the probability of selecting a class that runs between 50.25 and 50.5 minutes = 0.025
