Answer:

<span>y=<span><span><span>log<span>(x)</span></span>−<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span></span><span>log<span>(0.8)</span></span></span></span>

Explanation:

write as : <span>y=50000<span><span>(0.8)</span>x</span></span>

Taking logs:

<span><span>log<span>(y)</span></span>=<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span>+<span>log<span>(.<span><span>(0.8)</span>x</span>.)</span></span></span>

But <span>log<span>(.<span><span>(0.8)</span>x</span>.)</span></span> is the same as <span>x<span>log<span>(0.8)</span></span></span>

Thus
<span>x=<span><span><span>log<span>(y)</span></span>−<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span></span><span>log<span>(0.8<span>)

</span></span></span></span></span>Now swap the x'x and the y's giving:<span><span><span><span><span>
</span></span></span></span></span>

<span>y=<span><span><span>log<span>(x)</span></span>−<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span></span><span>log<span>(0.8<span>)

The children in my subdivision were bored one summer and decided to hold a competition to see who could run to the end of the st
Ainat [17]

Answer:

6.7% of children who finished the race in under 45 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 75 seconds

Standard Deviation, σ =  20 seconds

We are given that the distribution of time of completion is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(finished the race in under 45 seconds.)

P(x < 45)

P( x < 45) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{45 - 75}{20}) = P(z < -1.5)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x < 45) = 0.067 = 6.7\%

6.7% of children who finished the race in under 45 seconds.

What is 18.4 times 3.40 and the wprk showed
dusya [7]

Decimal division is super easy, let me show you how.

First, let's remove the decimal from both numbers. We have <em>184 </em>and <em>340</em>. Now let's multiply those two numbers.

184*340 = 62560.

Now, we need to figure out how many decimal places are in the original decimals. 18.<u>4</u> has one decimal place, and 3.<u>4</u> has one decimal place. (We don't count zeros at the end of a decimal as a decimal place.)

Now that we've figured out that there was a total of two decimal places, there can only be two decimal places in the answer. Let's take the 62560 that we got, and put a decimal in it. Remember, only two decimal places.

If there's only two decimal places in 62560, it would look like this: 62.<u>56</u> (<em>Remember, zeros at the end of a decimal does not count as a decimal place!)</em>


There's your final answer. 62.56.


Hope this explanation helped you out. :)

Factor the trinomial f(x) = 2x² + 5x – 12 ?
gavmur [86]

Answer:

(x + 4)(2x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 2x² + 5x - 12

Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 2 × -12 = - 24 and sum = + 5

The factors are + 8 and - 3

Use these factors to split the x- term

2x² + 8x - 3x - 12 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

2x(x + 4) - 3(x + 4) ← factor out (x + 4) from each term

(x + 4)(2x - 3)

Thus

f(x) = 2x² + 5x - 12 = (x + 4)(2x - 3) ← in factored form
