It's very true. The perimeter of a rectangle, for instance, is the distance all around it.

What is the value of x in the equation below?

sveta [45]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

1+2e^x+1=9

2e^x+1=9-1

e^x+1= 8/2

e^x+1 = 4

Here we can applicate the Ln:

ln e^x+1 = ln 4

Applicating the log property for exponent:

(x+1).ln e = ln 4

Ln e = 1, so:

x+1 = ln 4

x = ln 4-1

If 90 percent of automobiles in Orange County have both headlights working, what is the probability that in a sample of eight au

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function

$P(X=7)=(8C7)(0.9)^7 (1-0.9)^{8-7}=0.3826$

$P(X=8)=(8C8)(0.9)^8 (1-0.9)^{8-8}=0.4305$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)=0.3826 +0.4305=0.8131$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest "number of automobiles with both headligths working", on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=8, p=0.9)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

And for this case we want to find this probability:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function

$P(X=7)=(8C7)(0.9)^7 (1-0.9)^{8-7}=0.3826$

$P(X=8)=(8C8)(0.9)^8 (1-0.9)^{8-8}=0.4305$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)=0.3826 +0.4305=0.8131$

The solution to the system equations

katovenus [111]

Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.

We have these two equations.

-7x-2y=14

6x+6y=18

Now let divide the second equation by 6.

6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3

Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.

x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)

Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.

-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)

We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.

-7(3-y)-2y=14

-21+7y-2y=14

5y=35

y=7

Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.

x+y=3

x+7=3

x=-4

answer: x=-4, y=7
