Answer: -3


Why?

It's asking for the product of a number (which is unknown, therefore it's "x") and 5 which has 12 added to it. Your equation would be: 5x + 12 = -3

And you subtract 12 from both sides (12 minus 12 is 0 which cancel it out and -3 minus 12 is -5) leaving you with 5x = -15, then you divide by 5 leaving you with X= -3 .

Let the number be x


Equation:

12 + 5x = -3


Answer: The equation is 12 + 5x = -3


Solve it:

5x = -3 - 12

5x = -15

x = -15 ÷ 5

x = -3


Answer: The number is -3.

Determine whether the random variable is discrete or continuous. In each​ case, state the possible values of the random variable
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

a) Discrete Variable

b) Continuous Variable

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Discrete and Continuous:

  • Discrete data are the data whose value can be expressed in whole number. They cannot take all the values within an interval.
  • Discrete variables are usually counted than measured.
  • Continuous variable can be expressed in the form of decimals. They can take any value within an interval.
  • Continuous variables are usually measured than counted.

​(a) The number of free dash throw attempts before the first shot is made. ​

Since the number of shots made will always be expressed in whole numbers and the number of shots made will counted and not measured. Thus, number of free dash throw attempts before the first shot is made. is a discrete variable.

(b) The distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit.

The distance is a continuous variable as its value can be expressed in decimals. Also distance is always measured and not counted. Thus, distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit is a continuous variable.

How does the volume of an oblique cylinder change if the radius is reduced to 2/9 of its original size and the height is quadrup
vesna_86 [32]
Volume of a cylinder = π r² h

Let us assume the following values:
radius = 9
height = 10

Volume = 3.14 * 9² * 10
            = 3.14 * 81 *10
Volume = 2,543.40

Changes:
radius is reduced to 2/9 of its original size = 9 x 2/9 = 2
height is quadrupled = 10 x 4 = 40

Volume = π r² h
             = 3.14 * 2² * 40
             = 3.14 * 4 * 40
Volume = 502.40

Original volume = 2543.40   V.S.  Volume after change = 502.40

The volume of an oblique cylinder decreased when its radius was decreased to 2/9 of its original size and its height is increased 4 times.
