Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°:

∠O +∠P +∠Q = 180°

(2x -5)° +(3x -8)° +(10x -17)° = 180°

15x -30 = 180 . . . . . divide by °, collect terms

x -2 = 12 . . . . . . . . . divide by 15

x = 14 . . . . . . . . . . . .add 2

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Probability that the average time spent studying for the sample was between 29 and 30 hours studying is 0.0321.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the number of hours spent studying the week before final exams was normally distributed with mean 25 and standard deviation 15.

A sample of 36 students was selected.

<em>Let </em> $\bar X$ <em> = sample average time spent studying</em>

The z-score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

Z = $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }} }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean hours spent studying = 25 hours

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 15 hours

n = sample of students = 36

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

Now, Probability that the average time spent studying for the sample was between 29 and 30 hours studying is given by = P(29 hours < $\bar X$ < 30 hours)

P(29 hours < $\bar X$ < 30 hours) = P( $\bar X$ < 30 hours) - P( $\bar X$ $\leq$ 29 hours)

P( $\bar X$ < 30 hours) = P( $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }} }$ < $\frac{ 30-25}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{36} } }} }$ ) = P(Z < 2) = 0.97725

P( $\bar X$ $\leq$ 29 hours) = P( $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }} }$ $\leq$ $\frac{ 29-25}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{36} } }} }$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ 1.60) = 0.94520

<em>So, in the z table the P(Z </em> $\leq$ <em> x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2 and x = 1.60 in the z table which has an area of 0.97725 and 0.94520 respectively.</em>

Therefore, P(29 hours < $\bar X$ < 30 hours) = 0.97725 - 0.94520 = 0.0321

Hence, the probability that the average time spent studying for the sample was between 29 and 30 hours studying is 0.0321.

Answer:

25.5

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the area od the rectangle than the triangle.

to find the area count the number of squares and use A=b*h

than do the same for the triangle using A=.5*b*h

15=3*5

10.5=.5*3*7

10.5+15=25.5

Solve the system of equations. If a system has one unique solution, write the solution set. Otherwise, determine the number of s

Sauron [17]

The value of x, y and z from the system of equation are -1, -8 and 5 respectively.

Data;

-2x + 6y + 3z = -31
-3y + 7z = 59
2z = 10

<h3>System of Equation</h3>

To solve this problem, we have to solve the system of equation using substitution method.

From equation (iii)

$2z = 10\\z = 5$

let us substitute the value of z into equation (ii)

$-3y + 7z = 59\\z = 5\\-3y + 7(5) = 59\\-3y + 35 = 59\\-3y = 59 - 35\\-3y = 24\\y = -8$

Let's substitute the value of x and y into equation (i)

$-2x + 6y + 3z = -31\\y = -8, z = 5\\-2x + 6(-8) + 3(5) = -31\\-2x - 48 + 15 = -31\\-2x - 33 = -31\\-2x = -31 + 33\\-2x = 2\\x = -1$

From the calculation above, the value of x, y and z are -1, -8 and 5 respectively.

Algebra 2 word problem: Urgent!

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

180 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Surfer #1 takes a capsule every 6 hours, but this is also equal to 2 capsules every 12 hours. Surfer #2 takes 1 capsule every 12 hours. Thus, both surfers take a total of 3 capsules every 12 hours.

By dividing 45 total capsules they need to consume by 3, the number of capsules the surfers consume every 12 hour, you get the total number of hours times 12 it takes for them to consume 45 capsules. 45 / 3 = 15, so it takes 15 * 12 hours for them to consume 45 capsules. This is equal to 180 total hours.

Can anybody help me?

Kruka [31]

f(-2) = 2(-2)² - 8(-2) + 6 = 30

f(-1) = 2(-1)² - 8(-1) + 6 = 16

f(0) = 2(0)² - 8(0) + 6 = 6

f(1) = 2(1)² - 8(1) + 6 = 0

f(2) = 2(2)² - 8(2) + 6 = -2
