Answer:

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2x - 3 = 4

-1/2 * x = 4+3

-1/2 * x = 7

x = 7/(-1/2)

x = -14

Good luck with your schoolwork/homework!

Answer:

x=-14

Step-by-step explanation:

First rewrite your equation in a simpler form.

- $\frac{1}{2}$ x-3=4

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

- $\frac{1}{2}$ =7

Multiply both sides by - $\frac{1}{2}$ .

x=-14

Hope this helps! Wouldn't mind a brainliest either :).

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the equation x^2-3x+1=0

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using:

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

we will have two solutions.

x^2-3x+1=0

So, a=1 b=-3 c=1

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}$

We have two solutions:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$

10) Thirty-seven percent of the American population has blood type O+. What is the probability that at least four of the next fi

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

0.06597

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that thirty-seven percent of the American population has blood type O+

Five Americans are tested for blood group.

Assuming these five Americans are not related, we can say that each person is independent of the other to have O+ blood group.

Also probability of any one having this blood group = p = 0.37

So X no of Americans out of five who were having this blood group is binomial with p =0.37 and n =5

Required probability

=The probability that at least four of the next five Americans tested will have blood type O+

= $P(X\geq 4)\\= P(X=4)+P(x=5)\\= 5C4 (0.37)^4 (1-0.37) + 5C5 (0.37)^5\\= 0.06597$

Solve sin 0 + 1 = cos20 on the interval 0 ≤ 0 < 2pi. Show work please!

yan [13]

Answer:

$\theta=\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{3\pi}{2}\frac{2\pi}{3}\frac{4\pi}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You need 2 things in order to solve this equation: a trig identity sheet and a unit circle.

You will find when you look on your trig identity sheet that

$cos(2\theta)=1-2sin^2(\theta)$

so we will make that replacement, getting everything in terms of sin:

$sin(\theta)+1=1-2sin^2(\theta)$

Now we will get everything on one side of the equals sign, set it equal to 0, and solve it:

$2sin^2(\theta)+sin(\theta)=0$

We can factor out the sin(theta), since it's common in both terms:

$sin(\theta)(2sin(\theta)+1)=0$

Because of the Zero Product Property, either

$sin(\theta)=0$ or

$2sin(\theta)+1=0$

Look at the unit circle and find which values of theta have a sin ratio of 0 in the interval from 0 to 2pi. They are:

$\theta=\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{3\pi}{2}$

The next equation needs to first be solved for sin(theta):

$2sin(\theta)+1=0$ so

$2sin(\theta)=-1$ and

$sin(\theta)=-\frac{1}{2}$

Go back to your unit circle and find the values of theta where the sin is -1/2 in the interval. They are:

$\theta=\frac{2\pi}{3},\frac{4\pi}{3}$
