Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 4 = 6x - 12

First add 2x to each side: 4=6x−12+2x

Now simplify 6x-12+2x: 4=8x-12

add 12 to both sides: 4+12=8x

Simplify 4+12: 16=8x

Divide both sides by 8: 16/8

you end up with x=2

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+4=6x-12 Add 2x to both sides.

+2x +2x

4=8x-12 Add 12 to both sides.

+12 +12

16=8x Divide by 8 on both sides.

/8 /8

2=x

Hope this helps you out and have a great day (～^▽^)～

1. The probability of telesales representative making a sale on a customer call is 0.15.

Mumz [18]

Answer:

$n = 33$

$n = 19$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The probability of telesales representative making a sale on a customer call is $p = 0.15$

The mean is $\mu = 5$

Generally the distribution of sales call made by a telesales representative follows a binomial distribution

i.e

$X \~ \ \ \ B(n , p)$

and the probability distribution function for binomial distribution is

$P(X = x) = ^{n}C_x * p^x * (1- p)^{n-x}$

Here C stands for combination hence we are going to be making use of the combination function in our calculators

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

$\mu = n* p$

=> $5= n * 0.15$

=> $n = 33$

Generally the least number of calls that need to be made by a representative for the probability of at least 1 sale to exceed 0.95 is mathematically represented as

$P( X \ge 1) = 1 - P( X < 1 ) > 0.95$

=> $P( X \ge 1) = 1 - P( X =0 ) > 0.95$

=> $P( X \ge 1) = 1 - [ ^{n}C_0 * (0.15 )^0 * (1- 0.15)^{n-0}] > 0.95$

=> $1 - [1 * 1* (0.85)^{n}] > 0.95$

=> $[(0.85)^{n}] > 0.05$

taking natural log of both sides

$n = \frac{ln(0.05)}{ln(0.85)}$

=> $n = 19$

Enter an equation that can be used to find x. (Picture below)

Levart [38]

(2x+1)+89=180. 180 is the angle of a straight line. Set your two known sides equal to 180 and solve for x if needed.
