Answer:

n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

3 = -1.5n

Step 2: Divide both sides by -1.5

n = -2

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

3 = -1.5(-2)

3 = 3

What is x in this equation −4.5= −0.5(x − 7.1)
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

x=16.1

Step-by-step explanation:

-4.5= -0.5(x -7.1)

Divide both sides by -0.5

9=x-7.1

Add 7.1 to both sides

16.1=x

Hope this helps!

An engineer commutes daily from her suburban home to her midtown office. The average time for a one-way trip is 36 minutes, with
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

57.93% probability that a trip will take at least 35 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 36, \sigma = 4.9

What is the probability that a trip will take at least 35 minutes

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 35. So

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

Z = \frac{35 - 36}{4.9}

Z = -0.2

Z = -0.2 has a pvalue of 0.4207

1 - 0.4207 = 0.5793

57.93% probability that a trip will take at least 35 minutes.

I have 10 goats, n of which are male. I need to choose 2 of them to make a casserole.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer: There are 4 male goats.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that n of the 10 goats are male.

The probability that in a random selection, the selected goat is a male, is equal to the quotient between the number of male goats (n) and the total number of goats (10)

The probability is;

p = n/10

Now the total number of goats is 9, and the number of male goats is n -1

then the probability of selecting a male goat again is:

q = (n-1)/9

The joint probability (the probability that the two selected goats are male) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, this is

P = p*q = (n/10)*((n-1)/9)

And we know that this probability is equal to 2/15

Then we have:

(n/10)*((n-1)/9) = 2/15

(n*(n-1))/90 = 2/15

n*(n-1) = 90*2/15 = 12

n^2 - n = 12

n^2 - n - 12  = 0

This is a quadratic equation, we can find the solutions if we use Bhaskara's formula:

For an equation:

a*x^2  + b*x + c =  0

The two solutions are given by:

x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}

For our case, the solutions will be:

n = \frac{1 +- \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4*1*(-12)} }{2*1 } = \frac{1+- 7}{2}

The two solutions are:

n = (1 - 7)/2 = -3    (this solution does not make sense, we can not have a negative number of goats)

The other solution is:

n = (1 + 7)/2 = 4

This solution does make sense, this means that we have 4 male goats.
