Answer:

-52

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2)

Distribute the left side to get:

(-4x + -40) - 6

Now distribute the right side to get:

-3x + 6

Arrange the equation as the following:

-4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6

Add the like terms on each side:

-4x - 46 = -3x + 6

Do the inverse operation of each term:

-x = 52

Now we need to get x to become a positive, so we just divide -x by -1 to get x.

And 52/-1 to get our final answer of -52.

There are less than 200 apples in a box. It is known that 2,3,4,5, and 6 kids can share these apples evenly. How many apples can

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

60/120/180

Step-by-step explanation:

Either of these would work because it must be an even number divisible by 2.

It must end in a zero : divisible by 5 but even.

It must be a multiple of 30 as 3 only goes into 10s at 30. And that takes care of the 6 too.

But 4 doesn't go into 30, so 60?….

Yes, 60 is divisible between 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6

But the question does not limit your answer to one solution.

I hope this helps! :)

A distance AB is observed repeatedly using the same equipment and procedures, and the results, in meters, are listed below: 67.4

skad [1K]

Answer:

a) $\bar X =\frac{67.401+67.400+67.402+67.396+67.406+67.401+67.396+67.401+67.405+67.404}{10}=67.401$

b) The sample deviation is calculated from the following formula:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And for this case after replace the values and with the sample mean already calculated we got:

$s=0.0036$

If we assume that the data represent a population then the standard deviation would be given by:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n}}$

And then the deviation would be:

$\sigma =0.00319$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following dataset:

67.401, 67.400, 67.402, 67.396, 67.406, 67.401, 67.396, 67.401, 67.405, and 67.404

Part a: Determine the most probable value.

For this case the most probably value would be the sample mean given by this formula:

$\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And if we replace we got:

$\bar X =\frac{67.401+67.400+67.402+67.396+67.406+67.401+67.396+67.401+67.405+67.404}{10}=67.401$

Part b: Determine the standard deviation

The sample deviation is calculated from the following formula:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And for this case after replace the values and with the sample mean already calculated we got:

$s=0.0036$

If we assume that the data represent a population then the standard deviation would be given by:

$\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n}}$

And then the deviation would be:

$\sigma =0.00319$

Two basketballs are thrown along different paths. Determine if the basketballs’ paths are parallel to each

Paul [167]

Answer:

Since the slopes of the two equations are equivalent, the basketballs' paths are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that:

Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equivalent.
Two lines are perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.
And two lines are neither if neither of the two cases above apply.

So, let's find the slope of each equation.

The first basketball is modeled by:

$\displaystyle 3x+4y=12$
