Answer: x > 2</h3>
Work Shown:
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < - 18
x > -18/(-9)
x > 2
The inequality sign flips when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Here's another approach you could take.
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < -18
0 < -18+9x
18 < 9x
9x > 18
x > 18/9
x > 2
It's a slightly longer pathway, but it avoids a sign flip when you divide both sides by the positive number 9.
The sign flip happens two steps earlier when going from 18 < 9x to 9x > 18. In other words, A < B is the same as B > A.
Answer:
Hypothenus = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, we were told that the triangles are congruent (i.e same size). Thus,
AC = EF
BC = DE
To obtain the length of each Hypothenus, we shall determine the value of y and x. This can be obtained as follow:
For y:
AC = y + 3
EF = 2y + 1
AC = EF
y + 3 = 2y + 1
Collect like terms
3 – 1 = 2y – y
2 = y
y = 2
For x:
BC = 5x + 7
DE = 6x + 2y
y = 2
DE = 6x + 2(2)
DE = 6x + 4
BC = DE
5x + 7 = 6x + 4
Collect like terms
7 – 4 = 6x – 5x
3 = x
x = 3
Finally, we shall determine the length of each Hypothenus. This can be obtained as follow:
Hypothenus = BC
Hypothenus = 5x + 7
x = 3
Hypothenus = 5x + 7
Hypothenus = 5(3) + 7
Hypothenus = 15 + 7
Hypothenus = 22
OR
Hypothenus = DE
DE = 6x + 2y
y = 2
x = 3
Hypothenus = 6(3) + 2(2)
Hypothenus = 18 + 4
Hypothenus = 22
Answer:
4.82
Step-by-step explanation:
0.000082 + 0.0004 = 0.000482 = 4.82
Answer:
Therefore the mean and standard deviation of his total score if he plays a full 18 holes are 160 and 
respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
For the first 9 holes X:
E(X) = 80
SD(X)=13
For the second 9 holes Y:
E(Y) = 80
SD(Y)=13
For the sum W=X+Y, the following properties holds for means , variance and standard deviation :
E(W)=E(X)+E(Y)
and
V(W)=V(X)+V(Y)
⇒SD²(W)=SD²(X)+SD²(Y) [ Variance = (standard deviation)²]
∴E(W)=E(X)+E(Y) = 80 +80=160
and
∴
Therefore the mean and standard deviation of his total score if he plays a full 18 holes are 160 and respectively.
