Answer:

x= -0.2 or -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

42+5X=41

Subtract 42 from both sides:

42+5X=41

-42           -42

You are left with:

5x=-1

Now divide 5 by both sides to isolate x:

5x= -1

dem82 [27]

Complete Question

In a genetic experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 436 green peas and 171 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of 3/4 that was expected? The probability of getting a green pea is approximately: Is the probability reasonably close to 3/4?

Answer:

The  probability is  P(g) =0.72

Yes the result is reasonably close

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  number of  of  green peas is  g =  436

     The number of yellow peas is  y  = 171

   The sample size is  n  =  171 +  436 =  607

The probability of getting an offspring pea that is green is mathematically represented as

       P(g) = \frac{g}{n}

        P(g) = \frac{436}{607}

        P(g) =0.72

Comparing  P(g) =0.72  to   \frac{3}{4}  =  0.75 we see that the result is reasonably close

1. Solve the equations below.
Sergio039 [100]

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 3x + 8 = 23

3x = 23 - 8

3x = 15

x = 15 / 3 = 5

B) 5x + 1 = 3x + 17

5x - 3x = 17 - 1

2x = 16

x = 16 /2 = 8

C) 4 (x+2) = 32

4x + 8 = 32

4x = 32 - 8

4x = 24

x = 24 / 4 = 6

The area of a circular wave expands across a still pond such that its radius increases by 8cm each second. Write a formula for t
dedylja [7]

Answer:

A(t) = π(8t)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of a circular wave increases by 8 cm each second.

Every second radius of circular wave so the sequence of increase in radius will be,

8, 16, 24, 32.........(8t)

Here 't' = time

Since, area of a circle = πr²

Therefore, area of the circular wave after 't' seconds since the wave begins,

A(t) = π(8t)²
