Answer:

The value of x is 56.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given equation,

$\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}=18$

$\frac{x-2}{3}=18$ ( Subtraction of fractions ),

$x-2=54$ ( Cross multiplication )

$x=56$ ( adding 2 on both sides )

Hence, the value of x in the given equation is 56.

Last option is correct.

Hey there! The answer will be below

B is the correct answer

Because in B the last 3 numbers are 500 (estimate) so 34,500 would be rounded to 35,000.Plus B makes the most sense.

Hope that helps!

Not all visitors to a certain company's website are customers. In fact, the website administrator estimates that about 5% of all

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

0.0135 = 1.35% probability that, in a random sample of 4 visitors to the website, exactly 2 actually are looking for the website.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each visitor of the website, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are looking for the website, or they are not. The probability of a customer being looking for the website is independent of other customers. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

5% of all visitors to the website are looking for other websites.

So 100 - 5 = 95% are looking for the website, which means that $p = 0.95$

Find the probability that, in a random sample of 4 visitors to the website, exactly 2 actually are looking for the website.

This is P(X = 2) when n = 4. So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = x) = C_{4,2}.(0.95)^{2}.(0.05)^{2} = 0.0135$

0.0135 = 1.35% probability that, in a random sample of 4 visitors to the website, exactly 2 actually are looking for the website.

Solve by completing the square<br>3x2 + x - 2 = 0

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

x = 2/3 or x = -1

Step-by-step explanation by completing the square:

Solve for x:

3 x^2 + x - 2 = 0

Divide both sides by 3:

x^2 + x/3 - 2/3 = 0

Add 2/3 to both sides:

x^2 + x/3 = 2/3

Add 1/36 to both sides:

x^2 + x/3 + 1/36 = 25/36

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x + 1/6)^2 = 25/36

Take the square root of both sides:

x + 1/6 = 5/6 or x + 1/6 = -5/6

Subtract 1/6 from both sides:

x = 2/3 or x + 1/6 = -5/6

Subtract 1/6 from both sides:

Answer: x = 2/3 or x = -1
