Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{x+1} =\frac{2}{x+1}$

x ≠ 0

x ≠ - 2

x ≠ - 1

$\frac{x}{x+1}(x+1) =\frac{2}{x+1}(x+1)$

x = 2

- 3x + 9 - 4 = x + 3 + 2x

Gwar [14]

-3x + 9 - 4 = x + 3 + 2x
-3x + 9 - 4 = 3x + 3
9 - 4 = 6x + 3
5 = 6x + 3
2 = 6x

According to police sources, a car with a certain protection system will be recovered 87% of the time. Find the probability that

WITCHER [35]

Answer: 0.01145

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Binomial distribution , where the probability of getting x successes in n trial is given by :-

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , p = probability of getting each success in each trial.

As per given

The proportion that a car with a certain protection system will be recovered= p=0.87

n= 8

Let x be the number of cars will be recovered.

Then, the probability that 4 of 8 stolen cars will be recovered:

$P(X=4)=^8C_4(0.87)^4(1-0.87)^{8-4}$

$=\dfrac{8!}{4!(8-4)!}(0.87)^4(0.13)^4\\\\= 70(0.57289761)(0.00028561)\\\\=0.0114537700474\approx0.01145$

Hence, the required probability is 0.01145.

What is the trigonometric ratio for sin Z ?

Schach [20]

In all right triangles, the ratio between a leg and the hypothenuse is the sine of the angle opposite to the leg.

So, in your case, we have

$\sin(Z) = \dfrac{XY}{XZ}$

In order to find XY, we have

$XY = \sqrt{XZ^2-YZ^2} = \sqrt{1600-1024}=\sqrt{576} = 24$

So, the ratio for the sine is

$\sin(Z) = \dfrac{XY}{XZ} = \dfrac{24}{40} = \dfrac{3}{5}$
