Solve for X 1/5 X + 1/2 = 1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alik [6]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

X = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that you meant  (1/5)X + 1/2 = 1.  The LCD is 10.

Multiplying both sides by 10, we get:

2X + 5 = 10, or 2X = 5, or X = 5/2

The distribution of the average amount of sleep per night gotten by college students is roughly bell-shaped with mean 412 minute
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

P(X

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(412,68)  

Where \mu=412 and \sigma=68

We are interested on this probability

P(X

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

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(z

PLEASE HELP!!<br> Factor <br> 6x^2-42x-54<br><br> Please show work!
skad [1K]

first, rewrite 54 as 6•9

next, rewrite 42 as 6•7

then, that gets you 6x^2 -6•7x- 6•9

lastly, factor out the common term (6)

and then you get 6(x^2-7x-9)

Straight line depreciation applies the same amount of depreciation in each year.
Our Depreciation Base is 21,000 - 1,000 = 20,000
The useful life is 5 years, so each year we depreciate 20,000 ÷ 5 = 4,000

Book Value is Cost - Accumulated Depreciation
After Year 1: 
Book Value = 21,000 - 4,000 = 17,000

Answer is A) 17,000

1. Mark and Bill have a combined weight of 170
qwelly [4]
<h3>Equation : x + y = 170 and y = 2x - 40</h3><h3>The weight of Bill is 70 pounds and weight of mark is 100 pounds</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let the weight of Bill be "x"

Let the weight of mark be "y"

Given that,

Mark and Bill have a combined weight of 170  pounds

Therefore,

x + y = 170 ------- eqn 1

Mark weighs 40 pounds less than twice Bill's  weight

y = 2x - 40 ------- eqn 2

<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>

x + 2x - 40 = 170

3x = 170 + 40

3x = 210

x = 70

<em><u>Substitute x = 70 in eqn 2</u></em>

y = 2(70) - 40

y = 140 - 40

y = 100

Thus weight of Bill is 70 pounds and weight of mark is 100 pounds

The length of the box is 2x - 2 and the width is x - 5. Find the perimeter. (HINT: p= 2L + 2W) Choose one.
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Option D: 6x-14 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of the box = L = 2x-2

Width of the box = W = x-5

Perimeter is defined by the sum of length of all sides of the box.

Perimeter of the box = P = 2L + 2W

Perimeter of box = 2(2x-2) + 2(x-5)

Perimeter = 4x-4+2x-10

Perimeter = 6x-14

The perimeter of the box is 6x-14.

Hence,

Option D: 6x-14 is the correct answer.
