It would be A.) 7. hope this helps
X = 10
The triangles are similar by SAS, so we can set up a proportion of their sides.
9/(33-9) = 12/(3x+2)
9/24 = 12/3x+2
Reduce
3/8 = 12/3x+2
Cross multiply
3(3x+2) = 12*8
Distribute and multiply
9x + 6 = 96
Subtract 6
9x = 90
Divide by 9
x = 10
Check:
9/24 = 12/3x+2
9/24 = 12/3*10 + 2
9/24 = 12/30 + 2
9/24 = 12/32
3/8 = 3/8 :)
Answer:
- y = -5/2x + 5
- y = 2x -1
- y = 24/11
- y = 4x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for y, subtract the x-term and divide by the coefficient of y.
5x +2y = 10
2y = -5x +10
y = -5/2x + 5
__
2y -4x = -2
2y = 4x -2
y = 2x -1
__
7y +4y = 24
y = 24/11
We assume there is a typo, but cannot tell what it is. Use the same method as described and demonstrated for the other problems.
__
-2x +1/2y = 2
1/2y = 2x +2
y = 4x +4
Answer:

And using this formula we have this:

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable of interest that a woman must wait for a cab"the amount of time in minutes " and we know that the distribution for this random variable is given by:

And we want to find the following probability:

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

And using this formula we have this:

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917
