Answer:

5 years ago

Let Kelly's age be x

Jake's age is 4x

5 years later

Kelly's age is x + 5

Jake's age is 4x+5

The sum of both their ages is 60. The equation will be

x + 5 + 4x + 5 = 60

5x + 10 = 60

5x = 60 - 10

x = 50/5 = 10

So Kelly is (10 + 5) 15 years old.

Jake is (4*10 + 5) = 45 years old

In a normal distribution, 51 is the score that is two standard deviations above the mean, and 36 is the score one standard devia
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The mean is 41

Step-by-step explanation:

Here , we are interested in finding the mean.

Firstly, let the standard deviation be x and the mean be y.

We are told that 51 is 2 standard deviations above the mean. What this mean is that if we subtract 2 standard deviations from 51, we will arrive at the mean.

Mathematically;

51 - 2(x) = y

y + 2x = 51 •••••••••(i)

We are also told that 36 is one standard deviation below the mean. What this mean is that if we subtract one standard deviation from the mean, we will have 36

Mathematically, that would be;

y-36 = x •••••••(ii)

Substitute ii into i directly;

We have

y + 2(y-36) = 51

y + 2y -72 = 51

3y -72 = 51

3y = 51 + 72

3y = 123

y = 123/3

y = 41

50 POINTS !!!!! HomeWorker Helperer please
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

1)     - 2 / (cos x + sinx)^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) I assume you want the derivative of (cos x - sin x) / ( cos x + sin x).

y'  =  (cosx + sinx)( -sinx - cosx) - (cosx - sinx)(-sinx + cosx)

        ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                 (cosx + sinx)^2

=  -sinxcosx - cos^2x - sin^2x - sinxcosx - (-sinxcosx+cos^2x+sin^2x-sinxcosx

       -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                     (cosx + sinx)^2

=     -2sinxcosx - 1  - ( -2sinxcosx   + 1 )   /     (cosx + sinx)^2

=      -2sinxcosx - 1  - ( -2sinxcosx   + 1 )   /     (cosx + sinx)^2

=       - 2 / (cos x + sinx)^2.

Simplify the following 7 times the square root of 54 - 2 times the square root of 24
EleoNora [17]
The first step for solving this problem is to simplify the radical
7\sqrt{54 - 2} x 2√6
Calculate the product
14\sqrt{(54 - 2) X 6}
Subtract the numbers
14\sqrt{56 x 6}
Simplify the radical
14 x 2\sqrt{13 x 6}
Multiply the numbers
14 x 2√78
Finally,, calculate the product for your final answer
28√78

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

given

y=-8x+3

Interchanging the role of x and y

x=-8y+3

x-3=-8y

y=(3-x)/8

Inverse is y=(3-x)/8 or y=-(x-3)/8
