Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

By using mean ratio theorem in the given triangle,

$\frac{AC}{BC}=\frac{BC}{CD}$

AC × CD = (BC)²

(x + 5)x = (x + 2)² [Since, AC = AD + CD]

x² + 5x = x² + 4x + 4

5x = 4x + 4

5x - 4x = 4

x = 4

Therefore, x = 4 will be the answer.

Complete the recursive formula of the geometric sequence 27,−9,3,−1,

natita [175]

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 27

r = -9/27 = -⅓

the formula :

an = a1. r^(n-1)

= 27. (-⅓)^(n-1)

= 3³(-3`¹)^(n-1)

= 3³(-3)^(1-n)

. A hat contains 100 coins, where 99 are fair but one is double-headed (always landing Heads). A coin is chosen uniformly at ran

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:0.565

Step-by-step explanation:

Hat contain 100 coins out of which 99 is fair and one is double headed.

Probability of getting 7 heads is sum of Head through fair coin+heads through biased coin

Probability of getting a head through a fair coin=0.5

$P(7 heads)=0.99\times 0.5^7+0.01\times 1$

$P(Double head |7 heads )=\frac{Probability\ of\ 7\ heads\ and\ double\ headed}{probability\ of\ 7\ heads}$

$P(Double head |7 heads )=\frac{0.01\times 1}{0.99\times 0.5^7+0.01\times 1}$

$=\frac{0.01}{0.99\times 0.0078+0.01}=0.565$

Given the definitions of f (x) and g(x) below, find the value of (gof)(-8).

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

(gof)(-8) = 210

Step-by-step explanation:

(gof) = (-x + 8)² - 3(-x + 8) = 2

= x² - 16x + 64 + 3x - 24 + 2

= x² - 13x + 42

(gof)(-8) = (-8)² - 13(-8) + 42

= 64 + 104 + 42

= 210
