X=the number we have to find.
This expression "2(x+9)" is when the sum of a number and nine is doubled.
If the result is seven less than the number, we will have: x-7

We can suggest the following equation:
2(x+9)=(x-7)
2x+18=x-7
2x-x=-7-18
x=-25

answer: the number would be:  -25.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

w=7

Step-by-step explanation:

6w=77-5w

Add 5w to both sides

11w=77

Divide both sides by 11

w=7

What is the rate of change of the linear relationship modeled in the table? (4 points) x y −2 5 −1 4 0 3 1 2 a −2 b −1 c negativ
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

rate of change=slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

Step-by-step explanation:

x: -2|-1|0|1

y : 5|4|3|2

so choose 2 ordered pairs. in this case, we will choose (-2,5) and (-1,4)

now we plug them in: \frac{4-5}{-1-(-2)}

4-5=-1

-1-(-2)=1

so -1/1 is equal to -1, meaning it's answer option b.

Courtney has a total of 88 stamps worth $15.56. Some are $0.25 stamps and some are $0.02 stamps. How many of each foes she have?
olganol [36]

Let x = # of 25-cent stamps

y = # of 2-cent stamps

{   x+ y = 88

{ 0.25x + 0.02y = 15.56

60 25-cent stamps 28 2-cent stamps

Assume the readings on thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0°C and a standard deviation of 1.00°C. Find the pro
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

0.0326 = 3.26% probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69.

The sketch is drawn at the end.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 0°C and a standard deviation of 1.00°C.

This means that \mu = 0, \sigma = 1

Find the probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69

This is the p-value of Z when X = -1.69 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = -2.23.

X = -1.69

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{-1.69 - 0}{1}

Z = -1.69

Z = -1.69 has a p-value of 0.0455

X = -2.23

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{-2.23 - 0}{1}

Z = -2.23

Z = -2.23 has a p-value of 0.0129

0.0455 - 0.0129 = 0.0326

0.0326 = 3.26% probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69.
