Answer:

2+16*x=-7*x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The phrase "two more" means add two to whatever comes next.

2. "16 times a number" means 16 is multiplied by an unknown number represented by a variable.

3. "two less than" means subtract two from the number(s) that come next.

4. "product of -7 and the number" means multiply -7 times the same variable previously used.

Identify which of the following is most appropriate: discrete random variable, continuous random variable, or not a random varia

liraira [26]

Answer:

A.) Continuous random variable ;Not a random variable ; Discrete random Variable ; Continuous random variable ; discrete random variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify which is most appropriate category for the sample data given below :

a. Exact weights of the next 100 babies born in the United States

This is a continuous random varibake as it could take up any value including decimals in other to specify the exact weight of an individual.

b. Responses to the survey question "Which political party do you prefer?"

Not a random variable as the outcome to this question isn't numerical.

c. Numbers of spins of roulette wheels required to get the number 7

This is a discrete random variable as the number of roulette spins would be a whole number within a specified fic range.

d. Exact foot lengths of humans

Continuous random variable

The exact foot length of human would vary greatly and in a bid to give an exact value, foot length will most definitely take up decimal values

e. Shoe sizes (such as 8 or 8½) of humans.

This is also a discrete random variable as shoe sizes are restricted to a specific range. Even with the inclusion of 1/2 in the measurement, there are no values inbetween (8 and 8 1/2) which will be the same for the remaining value range.

It's geometry please help.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

BC = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

BD = 67

Bc = 3x - 2

CD = 4x + 13

BC + CD = BD (Given)

3x - 2 + 4x + 13 = 67

3x + 4x -2 + 13 = 67

7x + 11 = 67

7x = 67 - 11

7x = 56

x = 56 ÷ 7

x = 8

now instead of x put 8

Bc = 3x - 2

BC = 3(8) -2

BC = 24 -2

BC = 22

Carlos takes classes at both Westside Community College and Pinewood Community College. At Westside, class fees are $ 98 per cre

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

x + y = 13

98x + 115y = z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the time spent taking class in Westside community college

Let y represent the time spent taking class in Pinewood community college

Let z represent the combined total amount paid for the class fees.

The total combined time for the two school is given as:

x + y = 13.

For the combined total amount; we multiply the price for each school with the time spent on the school and sum them together.

Westside: $98 * x = 98x$

Pinewood: $115 * y = 115y$

The combined total amount represented as z is given as:

z = 98x + 115y
