Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x" = 5.69
Step-by-step explanation:
The graphic solution is attached.
Verifying the solution:
Existence condition: x > 0
2x - 4 = √x + 5
√x =2x - 4 - 5
√x =2x - 9 (²)
x = (2x - 9)²
x = 4x² - 36x + 81
4x² - 36x - x + 81 = 0
4x² - 37x + 81 = 0
Δ = -37² - 4.4.81 = 1369 - 1296 = 73
x = 37 ±√73/8
x' = 3.55
x" = 5.69
checking:
2*3.55 - 4 = 3.1
√3.55 + 5 = 6.88 Its not the same ∴ 3.55 is not a solution
2*5.69 - 4 = 7.39
√5.69 + 5 = 7.39 ∴ it's the only solution
Answer:
0.91517
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that SAT scores (out of 1600) are distributed normally with a mean of 1100 and a standard deviation of 200. Suppose a school council awards a certificate of excellence to all students who score at least 1350 on the SAT, and suppose we pick one of the recognized students at random.
Let A - the event passing in SAT with atleast 1500
B - getting award i.e getting atleast 1350
Required probability = P(B/A)
= P(X>1500)/P(X>1350)
X is N (1100, 200)
Corresponding Z score = 

Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+2(x+6)=36
distribute the 2
4x+2x+12=36
combine like variables
6x+12=36
subtract 12
6x=24
divide by 6
x=4
