Solve the following equations using any method. Show your work and check your
Gemiola [76]

a) The solution for the equation 2x + 16 = 5x + 4  is x=4.

b) The solution for the equation 3x − 5 = 2x + 14 is x=19.

c) The solution for the equation 5x − 5 = x + 15 is x=5.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>a) The given equation is  2x + 16 = 5x + 4 </u>

  • From the above equation, it can be found that the equation consists of x terms and constant terms.
  • Therefore, bring all the x terms on one side and the constant terms on other side of the equation.
  • This gives the simplified form of the equation to solve for x value.

⇒ 16-4 = 5x-2x

⇒ 12 = 3x

⇒ x = 12/3

⇒ x = 4

The solution for the given equation is x=4.

<u>To check, substitute x=4 in the equation :</u>

2(4) + 16 = 5(4) + 4

8+16 = 20+4

24 = 24

Therefore, the solution x=4 satisfies the equation 2x + 16 = 5x + 4

Similarly,

<u>b) The given equation is 3x − 5 = 2x + 14</u>

⇒ 3x-2x = 14+5

⇒ x = 19

The solution for the given equation is x=19.

<u>To check, substitute x=19 in the equation :</u>

3(19) - 5 = 2(19) + 14

57-16 = 38+14

52 = 52

Therefore, the solution x=19 satisfies the equation 3x − 5 = 2x + 14

Similarly,

<u>c) The given equation is 5x − 5 = x + 15</u>

⇒ 5x-x = 15+5

⇒ 4x = 20

⇒ x = 20/4

⇒ x = 5

The solution for the given equation is x=5.

<u>To check, substitute x=5 in the equation :</u>

5(5) - 5 = 5 + 15

25-5 = 20

20 = 20

Therefore, the solution x=5 satisfies the equation 5x − 5 = x + 15

A study was designed to investigate the effects of two​ variables, (1) A​ student's level of mathematical anxiety and​ (2) teach
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

P(X>400)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{400-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{400-440}{20})=P(z>-2)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(440,20)  

Where \mu=440 and \sigma=20

We are interested on this probability

P(X>440)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>400)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{400-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{400-440}{20})=P(z>-2)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

A triangle has angle measurements of 56°, 54°, and 70°. What kind of triangle is it?
alexira [117]

Answer:

Right, I am an idiot so i might be wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Every triangle has three angles which sum to 180 degrees.

There are three types of triangles based on the measures of its angles.

Right Triangle - Has one 90 degree angle

Acute Triangle - All angles less than 90 degrees

Obtuse Triangle - One angle greater than 90 degrees

In this example we are given 2 angles and must find the measure of the 3rd.

a + 56 + 34 = 180

a + 90 = 180

a = 90

Therefore, it is a Right Triangle.
