Answer: -28

Step-by-step explanation: Since x is being divided by -4, to solve for x, multiply both sides of the equation by -4.

On the left side, the -4's will cancel

and on the right side, 7(-4) is -28.

So x = -28.

Please do not try to do this problem in your head.

Show the work that it takes to get x by itself.

Answer:

x= - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

-4/1[x/-4 = 7]

x = -28

Log(x⁴+3x³) - log(X + 3 ) + log2 - log6 = 2logx . find the value of x

AfilCa [17]

The given equation is

$\begin{gathered} \log (x^4+3x^3)-\log (x+3)+\log 2-\log 6=2\log x \\ \log (\frac{x^4+3x^{3^{}}}{x+3})+\log \frac{2}{6}=\log x^2 \\ \log \frac{x^3(x+3)}{x+3}+\log \frac{1}{3}=\log x^2 \\ \log x^3+\log \frac{1}{3}=\log x^2 \\ \log \frac{x^3}{3}=\log x^2 \\ \frac{x^3}{3}=x^2 \\ x^3-3x^2=0 \\ x^2(x-3)=0 \end{gathered}$

hence

$x=0\text{ or x=3}$

But x cannot be zero so x=3

So the value of x is 3

Why can't we keep our education on our electronic devices instead of carrying a heavy bookbag?

Lesechka [4]

Teachers and principles probably still want to keep school a little old fashioned while still having little technology by the next year or 2 we'll might not have to carry heavy backpacks anymore I wish you the best of luck.

What is the probability that two randomly chosen players completed the walk in 2.9 hours or more? Show your work.

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

8.08%

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose several high schools in a city are sponsoring a walk-athon to raise money for a local charity. A certain route is mapped out through the city and each participant finds sponsors to donate money for the walk. If a participant completes the walk under a certain time, extra money will be donated. You are responsible for recording the finishing times for each of the participants. After collecting all of the data, you determine that the finishing times are normally distributed with a mean of 2.6 hours and a standard deviation of 0.3 hour.

Answer:

Given that:

Mean (μ) = 2.6 hours and standard deviation (σ) = 0.3 hour, n = 2

The z score is used in statistics to determine the amount of standard deviation by which the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by the equation:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$ , where x is the raw score.

If the sample size (n) is taken then the z score is given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$

Therefore for this problem the z score is:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }=\frac{2.9-2.6}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{2} } }=1.41$

From the normal distribution table, probability that two randomly chosen players completed the walk in 2.9 hours or more = P(x > 2.9) = P(z > 1.41) = 1 - P(z < 1.41) = 1 - 0.9192 = 0.0808 = 8.08%

A number when divided by 32 gives the quotient 150 and remainder 5, find thenumber (dividend).

insens350 [35]

Answer:

4805=32×150 +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

Here

Divisor is 32

Quotient is 150 and remainder is 5
