Answer:

- 2 - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

( 4 x - 5 ) - ( 6 x + 8 )

= 4 x - 5 - 6 x + 8

Arranging like terms together

= 4 x - 6 x - 5 - 8

= - 2 x - 13

Answer:

$-2x- 13$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

$(4x - 5)-(6x + 8)$

Open up the parentheses

$4x - 5-6x - 8$

Combine like terms

$4x -6x- 5 - 8\\-2x- 13$

I hope this helps!

Prove it. this question is from trigonometry

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

See below for step-by-step proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\textsf{Given expression}:$

$\cos^6 \theta+\sin^6 \theta$

$\textsf{Apply exponent rule} \quad a^{bc}=(a^b)^c:$

$\implies (\cos^2 \theta)^3+(\sin^2 \theta)^3$

$\textsf{Use the identity}\quad a^3+b^3=(a+b)^3-3ab(a+b):$

$\implies (\cos^2 \theta+\sin^2 \theta)^3-3 \cos^2 \theta\sin^2 \theta (\cos^2 \theta+\sin^2 \theta)$

$\textsf{Use the identity}\quad \sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta=1:$

$\implies (1)^3-3 \cos^2 \theta\sin^2 \theta (1)$

$\implies 1-3 \cos^2 \theta\sin^2 \theta$

$\implies 1-3 (\cos \theta\sin \theta)^2$

$\textsf{Use the identity}\quad \sin 2 \theta=2 \sin \theta \cos \theta \implies \dfrac{1}{2}\sin 2 \theta= \sin \theta \cos \theta:$

$\implies 1-3 \left( \dfrac{1}{2}\sin 2 \theta\right)^2$

$\implies 1-\dfrac{3}{4} \sin^2 2 \theta$

$\textsf{Use the identity}\quad \sin^2 2\theta + \cos^2 2\theta=1 \implies \sin^2 2\theta=1-\cos^2 2\theta$

$\implies 1-\dfrac{3}{4} \left(1-\cos^2 2 \theta\right)$

$\implies 1-\dfrac{3}{4} +\dfrac{3}{4}\cos^2 2 \theta$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{4} +\dfrac{3}{4}\cos^2 2 \theta$

$\textsf{Factor out }\dfrac{1}{4}:$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{4}\left(1+3\cos^2 2 \theta\right)$

$\textsf{Use the identity}\quad \cos (4 \theta)=2 \cos^2 2\theta - 1 \implies \cos^2 2 \theta=\dfrac{1}{2}\cos 4 \theta+\dfrac{1}{2}:$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{4}\left(1+3\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\cos 4 \theta+\dfrac{1}{2}\right)\right)$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{4}\left(1+\dfrac{3}{2}\cos 4 \theta+\dfrac{3}{2}\right)$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{4}\left(\dfrac{5}{2}+\dfrac{3}{2}\cos 4 \theta\right)$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{4} \cdot \dfrac{1}{2}\left(5+3\cos 4 \theta\right)$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{8}\left(5+3\cos 4 \theta\right)$

Fifty percent of households say they would feel secure if they had $50,000 in savings. you randomly select 8 households and ask

Setler [38]

Step-by-step Answer:

"Fifty percent of households say they would feel secure if they had $50,000 in savings." => population mean for satisfaction is 0.50.

N = number of household asked.

x = number of satisfied households.

Use binomial probability,

B(x,N,p) = C(N,x)*(p^x)*(1-p)^(N-x)

For 8 households and 3 questions (a), (b), and (c), we can tabulate all values of x and extract answers from there.

x B(x,8,0.5) cumulative probability

0 0.00390625 0.00390625

1 0.03125 0.03515625

2 0.109375 0.14453125

3 0.21875 0.36328125

4 0.2734375 0.63671875

5 0.21875 0.85546875

6 0.109375 0.96484375

7 0.03125 0.99609375

8 0.00390625 1.0

From the table, we see clearly that

(a) probability P(x=5)=0.2188

(b) probability P(x>5)=1-0.8555=0.1445

Note: All answers above have been rounded to the nearest 4 places of decimals.

Write 16/75 as a % round your answer to the nearest tenth of a %

Gre4nikov [31]

To do this, firstly convert the fraction to a decimal, then multiply it by 100 (the same way you would to get your percentage in a test.).

16/75 = 0.213 to 3sf

Then multiplying that we get 16/75 is 21.3%
