Answer:

x ≈ 24.1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle. So we use trigonometric functions.

tan Θ = opposite / adjoint

tan 15 = x / 90

90 tan 15 = x

x = 24.11542

We round it to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

x = 24.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

tan theta = opp /adj

tan 15 = x/90

90 tan 15 =x

x=24.11542

To the nearest tenth

x = 24.1

Suppose that you need to create a list of n values that have a specific known mean. Some of the n values can be freely selected.

Leno4ka [110]

As the problem indicates, degrees of freedom are the number of values that can be independently selected before it is necessary to choose specific values to arrive at the desired result.

The average, on the other hand, results from the sum of a list of values divided by the amount of values in the summed list.

Assume that the mean sought is $x$ and consider that the list is composed of a single element $a$ , in that case no random number can be selected, since the mean $x$ must correspond to that number.

If the list were composed of two elements $a$ and $b$ , one of the two values could be chosen randomly, and according to the chosen value the second should be the one whose sum with the previous one results in $2x$ , this given that the formula of the average $\sum\limits_{i=1}^n \frac{ x_{i}}{n}$ .

With three values $a$ , $b$ and $c$ , it is possible to select two freely, since the thirteen must be the one that balances the sum of $a+b$ , that is $(a + b) + c = 3x$ .

Thus, in general, with n values, it is possible to select $n-1$ values freely whose sum must be balanced by the last value so that the whole sum is $nx$ .

Answer

In a list of $\bf{n}$ values you can assign $\bf{n-1}$ values freely, that is, you have $n-1$ degrees of freedom.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

D. 3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find (f-g)(x) you have to subtract each fuction

(f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

(f-g)(x) = 5x -2 - (2x+1)

(f-g)(x) = 5x -2 -2x -1

(f-g)(x) = 3x -3

1. Which point on the axis satisfies the inequality y

grigory [225]

Answer:

1) Point $(1,0)$ -----> see the attached figure N $1$

2) The value of x is $4$

3) I quadrant

4) $(1,1)$

5) $y>-5x+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

we know that

If the point satisfy the inequality

then

the point must be included in the shaded area

The point $(1,0)$ is included in the shaded area

Part 2)

we have

$x-2y\geq 4$

see the attached figure N $2$

we know that

The value for x on the boundary line and the x axis is equal to the x-intercept of the line $x-2y= 4$

For $y=0$

Find the value of x

$x-2(0)= 4$

$x=4$

The solution is $x=4$

Part 3)

we have

$x\geq 0$ -----> inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is in the first and fourth quadrant

$y\geq 0$ -----> inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is in the first and second quadrant

the solution of the inequality A and the inequality B is the first quadrant

Part 4) Which ordered pair is a solution of the inequality?

we have

$y\geq 4x-5$

we know that

If a ordered pair is a solution of the inequality

then

the ordered pair must be satisfy the inequality

we're going to verify all the cases

case A) point $(3,4)$

Substitute the value of x and y in the inequality

$x=3,y=4$

$4\geq 4(3)-5$

$4\geq 7$ ------> is not true

therefore

the point $(3,4)$ is not a solution of the inequality

case B) point $(2,1)$

Substitute the value of x and y in the inequality

$x=2,y=1$

$1\geq 4(2)-5$

$1\geq 3$ ------> is not true

therefore

the point $(2,1)$ is not a solution of the inequality

case C) point $(3,0)$

Substitute the value of x and y in the inequality

$x=3,y=0$

$0\geq 4(3)-5$

$0\geq 7$ ------> is not true

therefore

the point $(3,0)$ is not a solution of the inequality

case D) point $(1,1)$

Substitute the value of x and y in the inequality

$x=1,y=1$

$1\geq 4(1)-5$

$1\geq -1$ ------> is true

therefore

the point $(1,1)$ is a solution of the inequality

Part 5) Write an inequality to match the graph

we know that

The equation of the line has a negative slope

The y-intercept is the point $(3,0)$

The x-intercept is a positive number

The solution is the shaded area above the dashed line

the equation of the line is $y=-5x+3$

The inequality is $y>-5x+3$
