Find the value of x ​
shtirl [24]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Verticle angles are formed when two lines intersect. The angles opposite each other are congruent, those angles are called vertical angles.

Using this knowledge, one can say;

3x + 2= 20

Use inverse oeprations to solve for "x"

3x + 2 = 20

     -2       -2

3x = 18

/3      /3

x = 6

The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 4.1 millimeters (mm) with a standard deviation of 0.1 mm. If the sp
adoni [48]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is H_0: \mu = 4.1

The alternate hypothesis is H_a: \mu \neq 4.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 4.1 millimeters

This means that the null hypothesis is that the diameter has the supposed value, that is, H_0: \mu = 4.1

If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly.  The manufacturer measures the diameter in a sample of 41 spindles to determine whether the mean diameter has moved away from the required measurement.

Tests if it has moved away, that is, if the mean is different from the specified value of 4.1. So the alternate hypothesis is H_a: \mu \neq 4.1

The sum of the first three terms in a GP is 38.Their product is 1728.Find the values of the three terms.
dusya [7]

Answer:

The value of the three terms is 8 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a" be the first term and "r" be the common ratio.

Then from the condition, we have these two equations

   a + ar + ar^2  =   38,      (1)

   a*(ar*)*(ar^2) = 1728.      (2)

From equation (2),  a^3*r^3 = 1728,  or  (ar)^3 = 1728,   which implies

   ar = root%283%2C1728%29 = 12;          (3)    

hence,  

   r  = 12%2Fa.                   (4)

Now, in equation (1) replace the term  ar  by 12, based on (3).  You will get

   a + 12 + ar^2 =  38,   which implies

   a + ar^2 = 26.              (5)

Next, substitute  r = 12%2Fa  into equation (5), replacing "r" there.  You will get

   a + a%2A%28144%2Fa%5E2%29 = 26,   or

   a + 144%2Fa = 26.

Multiply by "a" both sides and simplify

   a^2 - 26a + 144 = 0,

   %28a-13%29%5E2 - 169 + 144 = 0

   %28a-13%29%5E2 = 25

   a - 13 = +/- sqrt%2825%29 = +/- 5.

Thus two solutions for "a" are  a = 13 + 5 = 18  or  a = 13 - 5 = 8.

If  a =  8, then from (4)  r = 12%2F8 = 3%2F2.

If  a = 18, then from (4)  r = 12%2F18 = 2%2F3.

   

In the first case, if a = 8,  then the three terms are  8, 8%2A%283%2F2%29 = 12  and  8%2A%283%2F2%29%5E2 = 18.

   In this case, the sum of terms is  8 + 12 + 18 = 38, so this solution does work.

In the second case, if a = 18,  then the three terms are  18, 18%2A%282%2F3%29 = 12  and  18%2A%282%2F3%29%5E2 = 8.

   In this case, the sum of terms is  18 + 12 + 8 = 38, so this solution does work, too.

ANSWER.  The problem has two solution:  

        a)  first term is 18;  the common difference is 2%2F3  and the progression is  18, 12, 8.

        b)  first term is  8;  the common difference is 3%2F2  and the progression is   8, 12, 18.
