Is 8 a solution to the equation below? Yes or No? 3(x - 2) + 4 = 22

1 answer:

7 0

To see if 8 is the solution to the equation, 3 (x - 2) + 4 = 22, you must replace x with 8 and solve using the rules of PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction) REMEMBER: IF NOT APPLICABLE TO THE EQUATION YOU MAY SKIP THAT STEP IN PEMDAS . If the sides are equal to each other then 8 IS a solution.

3(8 - 2) + 4 = 22

Parentheses...

3(8 - 2) + 4 = 22

8 - 2 <<<In the parentheses so you must solve first

so...

3(6) + 4 = 22

Multiplication...

3(6) + 4 = 22

3 * 6

so..

18 + 4 = 22

Addition...

18 + 4 = 22

18 + 4

so...

22 = 22

Are they equal to each other? YES!!!

8 is a solution to the equation 3 (x - 2) + 4 = 22

Hope this helped!

Answer:

A) or the first one is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

To check just substitute the intersection point into the equation, as the intersection point is (3,2), -3 * 3 + 11 = 2 and 5/3 * 3 - 3 =2, so both equation satisfied.

Suppose a life insurance company sells a $240,000 one year term life insurance policy to a 25-year old female for $210. The prob

Answer:

$112.08 every year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose a game in which we bet a certain amount of money ''A'' to a certain result and the probability of that result is ''p''. If the prize that we get is ''P'' therefore the expected value of gain is :

$E=p(P-A)+(1-p)(-A)=pP-A$

Now,let's suppose that the female is ''betting on her death'' ⇒

P(she survives) = 0.999592

P(she doesn't survive) = 1 - 0.999592= $4.08(10^{-4})$

E(25-year old female) = $4.08(10^{-4}).(240000)-210=-112.08$

The negative sign of E is important.It means that every year the 25-year old female will lose $112.08.

Therefore, the expected value of this policy to the insurance company is $112.08 every year.
