Solve the equation 1/x + 1/3x = 4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Llana [10]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{3x} = 4 (Multiply everything by LCM)

3x*\frac{1}{x} + 3x*\frac{1}{3x}=3x*4 (Simplify the fractions)

3+1=12x\\4=12x\\x=4/12\\x=\frac{1}{3}

Find vertex of: <br><br> y=(x-4)(x+8)
ki77a [65]

Answer:

(-2,-36)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=(x-4)(x+8)

<u>1) Find the zeros of the parabola</u>

The zero-product property states that any value, when multiplied by 0 will equal 0. Therefore, to make y=0, either (x-4)=0 OR (x+8)=0.

Therefore, x=4 and x=-8.

<u>2) Find the x-coordinate of the vertex</u>

To do this, we take the average of our zeros.

\frac{4+(-8)}{2} \\=\frac{-4}{2} \\=-2

Therefore, the x-coordinate of the vertex is -2.

<u>3) Find the y-coordinate of the vertex</u>

Plug the x-coordinate back into the original equation

y=(-2-4)(-2+8)\\y=(-6)(6)\\y=-36

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the vertex is -36.

Therefore, the vertex of the parabola is (-2,-36).

I hope this helps!

larisa [96]

Answer:

7.235 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theory

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

A = 4.7

B = 5.5

4.7^2 + 5.5^2 = C^2

22.09 + 30.25 = C^2

√52.34 = √C^2

7.235 cm ≈ C

. Mrs. Rojas deposited $8000 into an account paying 4% interest annually. After 8 months Mrs. Rojas withdrew the $6000 plus inte
Mashcka [7]

well, keeping in mind that a year has 12 months, that means that 8 months is 8/12 of a year, when Mrs Rojas pull her money out.

~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$6000\\ r=rate\to 4\%\to \frac{4}{100}\dotfill &0.04\\ t=years\to \frac{8}{12}\dotfill &\frac{2}{3} \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=6000[1+(0.04)(\frac{2}{3})]\implies A=6000\left( \frac{77}{75} \right)\implies A=6160

well, she put in 6000 bucks, got back 160 extra, that's the interest earned in the 8 months.

what if she had left her money for 1 whole year, then

~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$6000\\ r=rate\to 4\%\to \frac{4}{100}\dotfill &0.04\\ t=years\dotfill &1 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=6000[1+(0.04)(1)]\implies A=6240

so had she left it in for a year, she'd have gotten 6240, namely 240 in interest, well, what fraction of a year's interest was earned? or worded differently, what fraction is 160(8 months) of 240(1 year)?

\cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{for 8 months}}{160}}{\underset{\textit{for 12 months}}{240}}\implies \cfrac{2}{3}

Find the probability of having 2,3, or 4 successes in five trials of a binomial experiment in which the probability of success i
Georgia [21]

Answer:

65.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial distribution PMF below (along with a description)

the probabilty of getting 2, 3, or 4 successes in 5 trials is just

p(2)+p(3)+p(4)

p(2)= 5C2*.4²*(1-.4)³ = .3456

p(3)= 5C3*.4³*(1-.4)²= .2304

p(4)= 5C4*.4⁴*(1-.4)=.0768

.3456+.2304+.0768= .6528
