If 2x − 4(x + 1) = −12, evaluate x2 − 1.

1 answer:

6 0

2x-4(x+1)=-13
1) we solve this equation:
2x-4(x+1)=-12
2x-4x-4=-12
-2x=-12+4
-2x=-8
x=-8/-2
x=4

2) we evalute x²-1
x²-1=4²-1=16-1=15

Answer: 15

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

0.9007 is the probability that a student scored below 86 on this exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 77

Standard Deviation, σ = 7

We are given that the distribution of examination grades is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

a) P(student scored below 86)

P(x < 86)

$P( x < 86) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{86 - 77}{7}) = P(z < 1.2857)$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(x < 1.2857) = 0.9007 = 90.07\%$

0.9007 is the probability that a student scored below 86 on this exam.

Answer:

∠A=30°

Step-by-step explanation:

let's call the angle at the bottom B and the one next to the 130 C

∠A=3x-6

∠C=180-130= 50°

vertical angles are equal∠B =8x+4

∠A+∠C+∠B=180°

find x:

3x-6+50+8x+4= 180°

11x+48=180°

11x= 132

x=12

find ∠A

∠A=3x-6= 3(12)-6 =30°
