Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first expand the left side of the equation to rid of the parenthesis:

$3*12x-3*9+9=2x+4\\36x-27+9=2x+4\\36x-18=2x+4$

Now let us isolate the variable to sove for x:

$36x-2x=4+18\\34x=22\\x=\frac{22}{34}\\x=\frac{11}{17}$

Therefore, x= $\frac{11}{17}$ . As you can see, there is just one solution.

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions :)

A track star runs two races on a certain day. The probability thathe wins the first race is 0.7, the probability that he wins th

NARA [144]

Answer:

a) 80% probability that he wins at least one race.

b) 30% probability that he wins exactly one race.

c) 20% probability that he wins neither race.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this problem building the Venn's diagram of these probabilities.

I am going to say that:

A is the probability that he wins the first race.

B is the probability that he wins the second race.

C is the probability that he does not win any of these races.

We have that:

$A = a + (A \cap B)$

In which a is the probability that he wins the first race but not the second and $A \cap B$ is the probability that he wins both these races.

By the same logic, we have that:

$B = b + (A \cap B)$

The probability that he wins both races is 0.5.

This means that $A \cap B = 0.5$

The probability that he wins the second race is 0.6

This means that $B = 0.6$

$B = b + (A \cap B)$

$0.6 = b + 0.5$

$b = 0.1$

The probability that he wins the first race is 0.7.

This means that $A = 0.6$

$A = a + (A \cap B)$

$0.7 = a + 0.5$

$a = 0.2$

A) he wins at least one race.

This is

$P = a + b + (A \cap B) = 0.2 + 0.1 + 0.5 = 0.8$

There is an 80% probability that he wins at least one race.

B) he wins exactly one race.

This is

$P = a + b = 0.2 + 0.1 = 0.3$

There is a 30% probability that he wins exactly one race.

C) he wins neither race

Either he wins at least one race, or he wins neither. The sum of these probabilities is 100%.

From a), we have that there is an 80% probability that he wins at least one race.

So there is a 100-80 = 20% probability that he wins neither race.

<h3>What is Pythagoras' theorem?</h3>

The Pythagorean theorem, sometimes known as Pythagoras' theorem, is a basic relationship between the three sides of a right triangle in Euclidean geometry. The size of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides, according to this rule.

Let the speed of one person be represented by x, then the speed of the other person, if the speed of the second person is 75% of the first.

Speed of first-person = x
Speed of second-person = 75% of Speed of first-person = 0.75x

Now, the distance covered by two persons in 2 hours is,

Distance covered by the first-person = x × 2 = 2x
Distance covered by the second-person = 0.75x × 2 = 1.5x

Since one person runs towards the south and another towards the east. Therefore, will form a 90° angle between their directions.

Now, the distance between the two after two hours is 100 km, therefore, we can write,

(2x)² + (1.5x)² = 100²

4x² + 2.25x² = 10000

6.25x² = 10000

x² = 10000/6.25

x² = 1600

x = √1600

x = 40

Hence, the speed of the faster person is 40 kmph.
