Answer:

x=2.833

Step-by-step explanation:

−4(3/2x−1/2)=−15

-4(3/2x)-4(-1/2)= -15

-2(3x)+2=-15

-6x=-15-2

-6x = -17

x= -17/-6

x=2.833

A tattoo enthusiast website claims that :
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The probability that a person is a Millennial given that they have tattoos is 0.5069 (50.69%) or about 0.51 (51%).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have here a case where we need to use Bayes' Theorem and all conditional probabilities related. Roughly speaking, a conditional probability is a kind of probability where an event determines the occurrence of another event. Mathematically:

\\ P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}

In the case of the Bayes' Theorem, we have also a conditional probability where one event is the sum of different probabilities.

We have a series of different probabilities that we have to distinguish one from the others:

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is a Millennial is:

\\ P(T|M) = 0.47

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is of Generation X is:

\\ P(T|X) = 0.36

The probability that a person has a tattoo assuming that is of Boomers is:

\\ P(T|B) = 0.13

The probability of being of Millennials is:

\\ P(M) = 0.22

The probability of being of Generation X is:

\\ P(X) = 0.20

The probability of being of Boomers is:

\\ P(B) = 0.22

Therefore, the probability of the event of having a tattoo P(T) is:

\\ P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M) + P(T|X)*P(X) + P(T|B)*P(B)

\\ P(T) = 0.47*0.22 + 0.36*0.20 + 0.13*0.22

\\ P(T) = 0.204

For non-independent events that happen at the same time, we can say that the probability of occurring simultaneously is:

\\ P(M \cap T) = P(M|T)*P(T)

Or

\\ P(T \cap M) = P(T|M)*P(M)

But

\\ P(M \cap T) = P(T \cap M)

Then

\\ P(M|T)*P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M)

We are asked for the probability that a person is a Millennial given or assuming that they have tattoos or P(M | T). Solving the previous formula for the latter:

\\ P(M|T)*P(T) = P(T|M)*P(M)

\\ P(M|T) = \frac{P(T|M)*P(M)}{P(T)}

We have already know that

\\ P(T|M) = 0.47\;P(M) = 0.22\;and\;P(T) = 0.204.

Therefore

\\ P(M|T) = \frac{0.47*0.22}{0.204}

\\ P(M|T) = 0.50686 \approx 0.51

Thus, the probability that a person is a Millennial given that they have tattoos is 0.5069 (50.69%) or about 0.51 (51%).

Complete a table with at least 5 points then graph the following quadratic on the coordinate plane. Identify all zeros.y = -2x2
Anna [14]

Answer:

See attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

  • y = -2x² + 5x + 8

Table and graph are attached

Zeros are included in the graph

<u>Zero's are obtained:</u>

x = 0 ⇒ y = 8

y = 0 ⇒  Solving quadratic equation

  • -2x² + 5x + 8 = 0
  • x = (-5 ± √(25 + 2*4*8))/-4
  • x = 3.608
  • x = -1.108

So zeros are (0, 8), (3.608, 0) and (-1.108, 0)
