How to solve 3x/7 - 1/2 = 1/14

Mathematics

Answer: 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we should all get the denominators to be the same.

14 is the LCM of each of the denominators, so:

3x / 7 times 2/2 = 6x/14

-1/2 times 7/7 = -7/14

and 1/14 is 1/14

So now we have

6x/7 + -7/14 = 1/14

We can multiply everything by 14 to get rid of the denominator completely, which leaves us with:

6x - 7 = 1

Then we just solve like a normal equation:

6x = 8

x = 8/6 , or 4/3

What is the domain and range of the following functions? Number 1 please
MrMuchimi
Answers:
Part 1 (the ovals)
Domain = {-6,-1,1,5,7}
Range = {-4,-1,2,4}
-------------------
Part 2 (the table)
Domain = {1,-3,-2}
Range = {-2,5,1}
-------------------
Part 3 (the graph)
Domain = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Range = {-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 6}

===============================================

Explanation:

Part 1 (the ovals)
The domain is the set of input values of a function. The input oval is the one on the left. 
All we do is list the numbers in the input oval to get this list: {-6,-1,1,5,7}
The curly braces tell the reader that we're talking about a set of values.
So this is the domain.

The range is the same way but with the output oval on the right side
List those values in the right oval and we have {-4,-1,2,4}
Which is the range. That's all there is to it.

------------------------------

Part 2 (The tables)

Like with the ovals in part 1, we simply list the input values. The x values are the input values. Notice how this list is on the left side to indicate inputs.
So that's why the domain is {1, -3, -2}. Optionally you can sort from smallest to largest if you want. Doing so leads to {-3, -2, 1}

The range is {-2,5,1} for similar reasons. Simply look at the y column

Side Note: we haven't had to do it so far, but if we get duplicate values then we must toss them. 
------------------------------
Part 3 (the graph)

Using a pencil, draw vertical lines that lead from each point to the x axis. You'll notice that you touch the x axis at the following numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
So the domain is the list of those x values (similar to part 2) and it is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Erase your pencil marks from earlier. Draw horizontal lines from each point to the y axis. The horizontal lines will arrive at these y values: -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 6
So that's why the range is {-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 6}

Write the equation for the line in slope intercept form ​
Helen [10]

Answer:

  y = -2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line crosses the y-axis at -3, so that is the y-intercept.

It has a "rise" of -2 units for each "run" of 1 unit, so the slope is -2. (For example, from point (-1, -1) to point (0, -3).)

The slope m and y-intercept b are used in the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line:

   y = mx + b

For the values this line has, the equation is ...

   y = -2x -3

Question 13 pts
oee [108]

Answer:

1. 68%

2. 50%

3. 15/100

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to use the empirical rule

1. % waiting between 15 and 25 minutes

From what we have in the question;

15 is 1 SD below the mean

25 is 1 SD above the mean

So practically, we want to calculate the percentage between;

1 SD below and above the mean

According to the empirical rule;

1 SD above the mean we have 34%

1 SD below, we have 34%

So between 1 SD below and above, we have

34 + 34 = 68%

2. Percentage above the mean

Mathematically, the percentage above the mean according to the empirical rule for the normal distribution is 50%

3. Probability that someone waits less than 5 minutes

Less than 5 minutes is 3 SD below the mean

That is 0.15% according to the empirical rule and the probability is 15/100
