Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 2 =  - 18

Collect like terms and simplify

2x  =  - 18 + 2 \\ 2x =  - 16

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

\frac{2x}{2}  =  \frac{ - 16}{2}

Simplify

x =  - 8

For the function y=-1+6 cos(2pi/7(x-5)) what is the minimum value?
Ad libitum [116K]
Usually one will differentiate the function to find the minimum/maximum point, but in this case differentiating yields:
\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)^{2}}\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)}}}
which contains multiple solution if one tries to solve for x when the differentiated form is 0.

I would, though, venture a guess that the minimum value would be (approaching) 5, since the function would be undefined in the vicinity.

If, however, the function is
-1+\cos{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}
Then differentiating and equating to 0 yields:
\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}=0
which gives:
x=5 or 8.5

We reject x=5 as it is when it ix the maximum and thus,
x=8.5\pm7n, for n=0,\pm 1,\pm 2, ...

In 2002, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that 8% of women married for the first time by their 18th
ehidna [41]

Question:

In 2002, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that 8% of women married for the first time by their 18th birthday, 25% married by their 20th birthday, and 76% married by their 30th birthday. Based on these data, what is the probability that in a family with two daughters, the first and second daughter will be married by the following ages? (Enter your answers to four decimal places.) (a) 18 years of age (b) 20 years of age (c) 30 years of age

Answer:

A.) 0.0064

B.) 0.0625

C.) 0.5776

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Married by 18th birthday = 8% = 0.08

Married by 20th birthday = 25% = 0.25

Married by 30th birthday = 76% = 0.76

In a family with two(2) daughters :

P(First daughter will be married by 18) = 0.08

P(second daughter will be married by 18) = 0.08

P(1st and 2nd married by 18) = (0.08×0.08) = 0.0064

B.)

P(First daughter will be married by 20) = 0.25

P(second daughter will be married by 20) = 0.25

P(1st and 2nd married by 20) = (0.25×0.25) = 0.0625

C.)

P(First daughter will be married by 30) = 0.76

P(second daughter will be married by 30) = 0.76

P(1st and 2nd married by 30) = (0.76×0.76) = 0.5776

How do i solve this?
Ierofanga [76]

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−36=p−30

Step 2: Flip the equation.

p−30=−36

Step 3: Add 30 to both sides.

p−30+30=−36+30

p=−6

A bird feeder 24 times using 6 cups each time. A bag of seeds holds 32 cups. How many bags of seed did he use?
pishuonlain [190]

First, let's find how many cups the bird feeder uses 24 times.

24 x 6 = (20 x 6) + (4 x 6) = 120 + 24 = 148 cups.

Now, let's divide 148 by 32.

148 ÷ 32 = 4.625 bags of seed.

I hope this helped!
