Answer:

<h2>x = 5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(1-2x)-1=7x\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\(-4)(1)+(-4)(-2x)-1=7x\\\\-4+8x-1=7x\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\8x+(-4-1)=7x\\\\8x-5=7x\qquad\text{add 5 to both sides}\\\\8x-5+5=7x+5\\\\8x=7x+5\qquad\text{subtract}\ 7x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\8x-7x=7x-7x+5\\\\x=5

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

 ((0 -  4 • (1 - 2x)) -  1) -  7x  = 0

Step  2  :

Equation at the end of step  2  :

 x - 5  = 0

Step  3  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

3.1      Solve  :    x-5 = 0

Add  5  to both sides of the equation :

                     x = 5

One solution was found :

                  x = 5

I arrive at a bus stop at a time that is normally distributed with mean 08:00 and SD 2 minutes. My bus arrives at the stop at an
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

0.0485 = 4.85% probability that you miss the bus.

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.

When two normal distributions are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this question:

We have to find the distribution for the difference in times between when you arrive and when the bus arrives.

You arrive at 8, so we consider the mean 0. The bus arrives at 8:05, 5 minutes later, so we consider mean 5. This means that the mean is:

\mu = 0 - 5 = -5

The standard deviation of your arrival time is of 2 minutes, while for the bus it is 3. So

\sigma = \sqrt{2^2 + 3^2} = \sqrt{13}

The bus remains at the stop for 1 minute and then leaves. What is the chance that I miss the bus?

You will miss the bus if the difference is larger than 1. So this probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1.

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

Z = \frac{1 - (-5)}{\sqrt{13}}

Z = \frac{6}{\sqrt{13}}

Z = 1.66

Z = 1.66 has a pvalue of 0.9515

1 - 0.9515 = 0.0485

0.0485 = 4.85% probability that you miss the bus.

Convert 0.0150 km to meters and express the answer to the correct number of significant digits. a. 150 m b. 15 m c. 15.0 m d. 15
FromTheMoon [43]

The correct answer is option C which is 15 meters.

<h3>What is unit conversion?</h3>

Unit conversion is a multi-step process that entails multiplying or dividing by a numerical factor, selecting the correct number of significant digits, and then multiplying or dividing by another numerical factor.

The unit conversion will be done as:-

1 km  =  1000 meters

0.0150 Km = 0.0150 x 1000 meters

0.0150 Km = 15 meters

Therefore the correct answer is option C which is 15 meters.

Chicago, Illinois has an elevation of 600 feet. Seely, California is -200 feet. What does 0 represent in the context of this sit
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Sea level

Step-by-step explanation:

In geography, 'Elevation' is measured in relation to sea level, so sea level would be zero.

Thus, Chicago is 600 feet above sea level and Seely, California is 200 feet below sea level.

If there were nothing but flat land all the way from Seely to the ocean, sea water would come in and cover Seely. Fortunately for the people in Seely. California's coastal mountain range is between the town and the ocean, so that does not happen.
