Answer:

x=17/11

Step-by-step explanation:

7x-2(x+12)=-5-2(1-3x)

First, you want to get rid of the parenthies.

7x-2x-24=-5-2+6x

Now, you want to combine all of the common terms

5x-24=-7+6x

11x-24=-7

Next, you want to add 24 to each side.

11x-24=-7

+24 +24

Now, you want to divide 11 from both sides.

11x=17

The height of the javelin above the ground is symmetric about the line t = seconds. The javelin is 20 feet above the ground for

Levart [38]

I FOUND YOUR COMPLETE QUESTION IN OTHER SOURCES.
PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGE.

Part 1:

we must see in the graph the axis of symmetry of the given parabola.
The axis of symmetry is the following vertical line:
$t = 2
$
Answer:
The height of the javelin above the ground is symmetric about the line t = 2 seconds:

Part 2:

we must see the time t for which the javelin reaches a height of 20 feet for the first time.
We have that when evaluating t = 1, the function is:
$h (1) = 20.
$
To do this, just look at the graph.
Then, we must observe the moment when it returns to be 20 feet above the ground.
For this, we have from the graph that:
$h (3) = 20 feet
$
Therefore, a height of 20 feet is again reached in 3 seconds.
Answer:
The javelin is 20 feet above the ground for the first time at t = 1 second and again at t = 3 seconds

you are rolling a 10-sided die with sides numbered 1-10. you keep rolling the die until you roll a prime number and then stop. l

evablogger [386]

The formula for E(x) would be SUM[ X(n)P(n)] from n = 1 to n = infinity until we get the prime number

In the given problem, a 10-sided die with 1-10 numbers is rolled until we get a prime number

Prime numbers between 1-10 = 2,3,5,7 (4 prime numbers)

Non - prime numbers = 1,4,6,8,9,10( 6 non-prime number)

Let X be the number of times the die is rolled

The probability of getting a prime =

$P(Prime) = \frac{4}{10}$

Now, the value of

E(X)=∑x.P(x) [ x-> {1, infinity}]

= P(1)X(1) +P(2)X(2)+P(3)X(3)+P(4)X(4)........+ P(n)X(n)

= 1. $\frac{4}{10}$ + 2. $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{4}{10}$ + 3. $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{6}{10}$ $\frac{4}{10}$ + 4. $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{4}{10}$ .......
