Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

5.8+5.9x=6x+5

5.9x-6x=5-5.8

-0.1x= -0.8

x=8

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Move the variables to be on one side of the equation. We will do this by canceling out 5.9x with -5.9. What you do to one side of the equation you must also do to the other.

5.8 + 5.9x = 6x + 5

       -5.9x   -5.9x

                 ↓

        5.8 = .1x + 5

2. Move the 5 to the left of the equation, so it can be with its like term. We will do this by canceling out 5 with -5. What you do to one side of the equation you must also do to the other.

5.8 = .1x + 5

-5              -5

        ↓

   .8 = .1x

3. Get the x alone. Since x is being multiplied by .1 we will do this by dividing by .1. This is because division is the inverse of multiplication. What you do to one side of the equation you must also do to the other.

     <u>.8</u> = <u>.1x</u>

     .1     .1

         ↓

     8 = x

4. Rewrite the equation to have the variable come first.

x = 8

Helga [31]
To find the price per spoon of brand A, divide the cost by the amount of spoons:

1.99 / 25 = 0.0796

Repeat this process for brand B:

3.89 / 42 = 0.0926

Brand A, at $0.08 a unit, is the better buy of brands A and B.

Hope this helps.

Not sure how to do this
OLEGan [10]
It's pretty simple! So it looks like you are learning proportions. You would cross multiply to achieve your answer. 

First, let's do your first problem: 

2     12
--- = ----
5       n 

You would take 5 and multiply it by 12 and get 60! Then you would do the same with 2 times n, giving you 2n (because you do not know what n represents YET.) 

Now you should have this:
60=2n OR 2n=60

We must isolate our variable, in order to do that, get rid of two! But how? You would do this by dividing 2n by 2. Yet in equations, when you do something to one side, you must do it to the other because they must be EQUAL! (hence the "equa-" in equation) 

2n=60
---   ---
2      2  DIVIDE 2 into 60
----------
n= 30   Simplify! 

Your final answer for the first question is n= 30!

An individual who has automobile insurance from a certain company is randomly selected. Let Y be the number of mov- ing violatio
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a) E(Y) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y_i P(Y_i)

And replacing we got:

E(Y) =0*0.60 +1*0.25 +2*0.1 +3*0.05 = 0.60

b) E(Y^2) =0^2*0.60 +1^2*0.25 +2^2*0.1 +3^2*0.05 = 1.1

And then the expected value would be:

E(100Y^2) = 100*1.1= 110

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the following distribution given:

Y       0       1        2        3

P(Y) 0.60 0.25  0.10  0.05

Part a

We can find the expected value with this formula:

E(Y) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y_i P(Y_i)

And replacing we got:

E(Y) =0*0.60 +1*0.25 +2*0.1 +3*0.05 = 0.60

Part b

If we want to find the expected value of 100 Y^2 we need to find the expected value of Y^2 and we have:

E(Y^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n Y^2_i P(Y_i)

And replacing we got:

E(Y^2) =0^2*0.60 +1^2*0.25 +2^2*0.1 +3^2*0.05 = 1.1

And then the expected value would be:

E(100Y^2) = 100*1.1= 110
