Tim is thinking of two numbers. The quotient of the two numbers is 9. The difference of the two numbers is 48. The sum of the tw

Paladinen [302]

Let the two numbers be x and y, then
x - y = 48 . . . (1)
x + y = 60 . . . (2)

(1) - (2) => -2y = -12 => y = -12/-2 = 6
From (1), x - 6 = 48 => x = 48 + 6 = 54

Therefore, the two numbers are 54 and 6.

In a valid probability distribution, each probability must be between 0 and 1, inclusive, and the probabilities must add up to 1

lora16 [44]

The value of x is 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

In a probability distribution, probability should be between 0 and 1. The probabilities add up to one.

Given probabilities are:

$\frac{1}{10}, \frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{2}, x$

The sum of these probabilities will be equal to 1.

So,

To find x,

$\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{2}+x = 1\\\frac{1+2+5}{10}+x=1\\\frac{8}{10}+x=1\\x= 1- \frac{8}{10}\\x = 1- \frac{4}{5}\\x= \frac{5-4}{5}\\x=\frac{1}{5}$

The value of x is 1/5

A rectangle has sides measuring (6x + 4) units and (2x + 11) units. Part A: What is the expression that represents the area of t

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

A=lw

A=(6x + 4)*(2x + 11)

multiply it out:

A=6x*2x+6x*11+4*2x+4*11

A=12x^(2)+66x+8x+44

add like terms

A=12x^(2)+<u>66x+8x</u>+44

A=12x^(2)+(66+8)x+44

A=12x^(2)+74x+44

the expression used to find area is 12x^(2)+74x+44

Part B:

this is:

a second degree trinomial

since its leading coefficient (highest degree value of the expression) is 2

and

since it has three monomials (terms that are separated by + or - signs):

12x^(2)+<u><em>74x</em></u>+44

Part C:

(not sure about this one)

all area is positive or 0 (no area), so lets find the values of x that are true:

lets find the zeros

(6x + 4)*(2x + 11)=0

6x+4=0

6x=-4

x=-4/6

x=-2/3

2x+11=0

2x=-11

x=-11/2

6*(-11/2)+4

3*(-11)+4

-33+4

-29

2*(-2/3)+11

-4/3+33/3

29/3

6*(-2/3) + 4

2*(-2)+4

-4+4

0

x is greater than (-2/3)

Thus, any real number greater than -2/3 makes

(6x + 4)*(2x + 11) equals the expression:

12x^(2)+74x+44, where x is a real number greater than -2/3

if lets say x= 1, a counting number then:

(6*1 + 4)*(2*1 + 11)=12*1^(2)+74*1+44

(6+4)*(2+11)=12*1+74+44

10*13=12+118

130=130

130 and 1 are both counting numbers, proving the closure property of polynomials

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

at first we put the numbers in order from least to greatest

2 , 6 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9

1st quartile = 6

median = (6+7)/2 = 6.5

3rd quartile = 8
