Answer:

Write the written problem into an equation to get:

3x +2 = 5x -4

To solve:

Add 4 to each side:

3x+6 = 5x

Subtract 3x from each side:

2x = 6

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 6/2

x = 3

You didn't list the options so it could like like any of the equations I show above.

A certain brand of flood lamps has a lifetime that is normally distributed with a mean of 3,750 hours and a standard deviation o
vesna_86 [32]
Given that mean=3750 hours and standard deviation is 300:
Then:
<span>a. The probability that a lamp will last for more than 4,000 hours?
P(x>4000)=1-P(x<4000)
but
P(x<4000)=P(z<Z)
where:
z=(x-</span>μ)/σ
z=(4000-3750)/300
z=0.833333
thus
P(x<4000)=P(z<0.8333)=0.7967
thus
P(x>4000)=1-0.7967=0.2033

<span>b.What is the probability that a lamp will last less than 3,000 hours?
P(x<3000)=P(z<Z)
Z=(3000-3750)/300
z=-2.5
thus
P(x<3000)=P(z<-2.5)=0.0062

c. </span><span>.What lifetime should the manufacturer advertise for these lamps in order that only 4% of the lamps will burn out before the advertised lifetime?
the life time will be found as follows:
let the value be x
the value of z corresponding to 0.04 is z=-2.65
thus
using the formula for z-score:
-2.65=(x-3750)/300
solving for x we get:
-750=x-3750
x=-750+3750
x=3000</span>

Solve for : x 4(x+5)=3(x-2)-2(x+2)
Allushta [10]

Hey there!!

In order to solve this equation, we will have to use the distributive property.

What is distributive property?

We will need to distribute one term to the other terms preset.

Example : 4 ( 3x - 1 )

sing distributive property, we will have to distribute the term outside the parenthesis to the terms inside. In this case, we will have to distribute 4 to 3x and -1

( 4 × 3x ) + ( 4 × -1 )

12x + ( -4 )

= 12x - 4

This is after implementing the distributive property.

Now moving back onto the question

4 ( x + 5 ) = 3 ( x - 2 ) - 2 ( x + 2 )

Let us first solve 4 ( x + 5 )

Distribute 4 to x and 5

( 4 × x ) + ( 4 × 5 )

4x + 20

Now let's solve 3 ( x - 2 )

Distribute 3 to x and -2

( 3 × x ) + ( 3 × - 2 )

3x - 6

Solve for -2 ( x + 2 )

Distribute -2 to x and 2

( -2 × x ) + ( -2 × 2 )

-2x - 4

Now, let's get everything back together

4x + 20 = 3x - 6 - 2x - 4

Combine all the like terms

4x + 20 = x - 10

Adding 10 on both sides

4x + 20 + 10 = x - 10 + 10

4x + 30 = x

Subtracting 4x on both sides

4x - 4x + 30 = x - 4x

30 = -3x

Dividing by -3 on both sides

30 / -3 = -3x / -3

- 10 = x

<h2>x = - 10 </h2><h3>Hope my answer helps!</h3>

Find the total surface area of the triangular prism
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

1,008\:\mathrm{cm^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area of this triangular prism consists of three rectangles and two triangles. Adding the areas of each of these shapes allows us to find the total surface area of this 3D figure:

Area of both triangles:

2\cdot \frac{1}{2}\cdot12\cdot 14=168\:\mathrm{cm^2}

Area of all three rectangles:

15\cdot 20 +13\cdot 20+14\cdot 20=840\:\mathrm{cm^2}

Therefore, the total surface area of this figure is:

840+160=\fbox{$1,008\:\mathrm{cm^2}$} \: \checkmark
