Good evening,

Answer:

x > 5

x ≤ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Visualize as if the inequality symbols are equal signs and then solve it as you would for a normal equation, note if you divide by two negative numbers at all you then switch the sign.

On a number line, an inequality sign without the “equal to” is plotted with an open circe.

An inequality sign, with the “equal to” is plotted with a closed circle.

3x - 7> 8

Add seven on both sides, we do this because we want to eliminate the 7 from one side.

3x > 15

Divide both sides by 3, we do this because you want to get rid of the 3 from x.

x > 5

As for the second inequality.

Divide both sides by -3, as I mentioned earlier switch the side since we are dividing by two negative numbers.

x ≤ 12

For the greater than inequality x > 5, plot a open circle on 5 and draw the line going to the right.

For the less than or equal to inequality x ≤ 12, plot a closed cirlce on 12 and draw the line going to the left.

A unique trick is to graph the line based on the direction (right or left) the inequality symbol is pointing to.

A triangle has an angle that measures 10°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:14. What

ivann1987 [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the measures of other two angles of triangle.

$\red{\frak{Given}} \begin{cases} & \sf{The\ measure\ of\ one\ angle\ of\ traingle\ is\ {\pmb{\sf{10^{\circ}}}}.} \\ & \sf{The\ other\ two\ angles\ are\ in\ the\ ratio\ of\ {\pmb{\sf{3\ :\ 14}}}.} \end{cases}$

We know that,

The other two angles of triangle are in the ratio of 3 : 14. So, let us consider the other two angles of the triangle be 3x and 14x.

Angle sum property,

The angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of triangle is 180°. By using this property, we'll find the other two angles of the triangle.

$\rule{200}{3}$

$\sf \dashrightarrow {10^{\circ}\ +\ 3x\ +\ 14x\ =\ 180^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {10^{\circ}\ +\ 17x\ =\ 180^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {17x\ =\ 180^{\circ}\ -\ 10^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {17x\ =\ 170^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {x\ =\ \dfrac{\cancel{170^{\circ}}}{\cancel{17}}} \\ \\ \\ \dashrightarrow {\underbrace{\boxed{\pink{\frak{x\ =\ 10^{\circ}.}}}}_{\sf \blue {\tiny{Value\ of\ x}}}}$

∴ Hence, the value of x is 10°. Now, let us find out the other two angles of the triangle.

$\rule{200}{3}$

Second AnglE :

3x
3 × 10
30°

∴ Hence, the measure of the second angle of triangle is 30°. Now, let us find out the third angle of triangle.

$\rule{200}{3}$

Third AnglE :

14x
14 × 10
140°

∴ Hence, the measure of the third angle of the triangle is 140°.

The cycle time for trucks hauling concrete to a highway construction site is uniformly distributed over the interval 40 to 75 mi

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

0.8333 = 83.33% probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes if it is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

$P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}$

Uniformly distributed over the interval 40 to 75 minutes.

This means that $a = 40, b = 75$

It is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

This means that we can use $a = 45$

What is the probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes?

$P(X > 50) = \frac{75 - 50}{75 - 45} = 0.8333$

0.8333 = 83.33% probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes if it is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

Write 7,004,000 in scientific notation.

MAXImum [283]

<span>7,004,000 in scientific notation.
=</span>7.004 x 10^6
as 7 is the first non zero digit
so decimal jumbed 6 numbers from right to left and exponent will be positive
option A is correct
