Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(2x−4)=4x

(−2)(2x)+(−2)(−4)=4x(Distribute)

−4x+8=4x

Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.

−4x+8−4x=4x−4x

−8x+8=0

Step 3: Subtract 8 from both sides.

−8x+8−8=0−8

−8x=−8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -8.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The standard deviation of this probability distribution is 1.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

P(X = 0) = 0.25

P(X = 1) = 0.3

P(X = 2) = 0.1

P(X = 3) = 0.35

Mean:

Each value multiplied by its probability. So

$M = 0*0.25 + 1*0.3 + 2*0.1 + 3*0.35 = 1.55$

Variance:

Sum of the squares of the values subtracted from the mean, and multiplied by its probability.

$V = 0.25*(0-1.55)^2 + 0.3*(1-1.55)^2 + 0.1*(2-1.55)^2 + 0.35*(3-1.55)^2 = 1.4475$

Standard deviation:

Square root of the variance. So

$S = \sqrt{V} = \sqrt{1.4475} = 1.2$

The standard deviation of this probability distribution is 1.2.

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 4000 kilometers in 5 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 5040 kilom

andriy [413]

Answer:the plane in still air is 904 km/h

the rate of the wind is 104 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the rate or speed of the plane in still air.

Let y represent the rate or speed of the wind.

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 4000 kilometers in 5 hours. This means that the total speed of the airplane would be (x - y) km/h

Distance = speed × time

Therefore

4000 = 5(x - y)

4000 = 5x - 5y - - - - - - - - -1

Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 5040 kilometers in 4 hours. This means that the total speed of the airplane would be (x + y) km/h. Therefore,

5040 = 4(x + y)

5040 = 4x + 4y - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 5, it becomes

16000 = 20x - 20y

20160 = 20x + 20y

Subtracting, it becomes

- 4160 = - 40y

y = - 4160/-40

y = 104

Substituting y = 104 into equation 1, it becomes

4000 = 5x - 5 × 104

4000 = 5x - 520

5x = 4000 + 520

5x = 4520

x = 4520/5 = 904

Q1 [5]

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The required drawing showing the cliff, river, and tower as well as the details in the question is attached, please find alongside the answer

The width of the river is approximately 51.55 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the observation tower = 11 meters

The angle of elevation of the cliff top and the opposite side of the river = 20°

The angle of elevation of the tower top and the opposite side of the river = 30°

Therefore, by sine rule, we have;

h/sin(20) = w/sin(60)

11/sin(10) = length, l/sin(60)

l = sin(60) ×11/sin(10) ≈ 54.86 meters

w = l × cos (20) = 54.86 meters × cos (20) ≈ 51.55 meters

The width, w, of the river is approximately 51.55 meters.
