if the product of 4 and a number is decreased by 12, the result is twice the opposite of the number. Find the number. EXPLAIN PL

ELEN [110]

Answer: The number is: "2 " .
__________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________
Write the expression; which is an equation, as follows:
__________________________________________
" 4x <span>− 12 = 2(-x) " ; in which "x" represents "the number for which we shall solve" .
___________________________________________
Note:

If the "number" = "x" ; the "opposite of the number" = " -x " ;
</span>___________________________________________
Rewrite as: " 4x <span>− 12 = -2x " ;
</span>_____________________________________________
→ Add "12" ; & add "2x" ; to EACH SIDE of the equation:

4x − 12 + 12 + 2x = -2x + 12 + 2x ;

to get: 6x = 12 ;
____________________________________________________
Now, divide each side of the equation by "6" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
____________________________________________________
6x / 6 = 12 / 6 ;

to get: x = 2 .
____________________________________________________
Answer: The number is: "2 " .
____________________________________________________
Let us check our answer, by plugging in "2" for "x" in our original equation:
_____________________________________________________
→ " 4x − 12 = 2(-x) " ;

Let us plug in "2" for "x" ; to see if the equation holds true; that is; if both side of the equation are equal; when "x = 2" ;

→ " 4(2) − 12 = ? 2(-2) ??

→ 8 − 12 = ? -4 ? ;

→ -4 = ? -4 ?? Yes!

According to the last census (2010), the mean number of people per household in the United States is LaTeX: \mu = 2.58 Assume a

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = 0.046

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Population Mean, $\mu$ = 2.58 and Standard deviation, $\sigma$ = 0.75

Also, a random sample (n) of 110 households is taken.

Let Xbar = sample mean household size

The z score probability distribution for sample mean is give by;

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

So, probability that the sample mean household size is between 2.50 and 2.66 people = P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66)

P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = P(Xbar < 2.66) - P(Xbar $\leq$ 2.50)

P(Xbar < 2.66) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\frac{2.66-2.78}{\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{110} } }$ ) = P(Z < -1.68) = 1 - P(Z 1.68)

= 1 - 0.95352 = 0.04648

P(Xbar $\leq$ 2.50) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ $\leq$ $\frac{2.50-2.78}{\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{110} } }$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ -3.92) = 1 - P(Z < 3.92)

= 1 - 0.99996 = 0.00004

Therefore, P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = 0.04648 - 0.00004 = 0.046

What is the area of the rhombus in simplest radical form? The figure is not drawn to scale.

Tanya [424]

The area of the Rhombus is 162√3 sq.unit , Option A is the correct answer.

<h3>What is a Rhombus ?</h3>

A rhombus is a polygon , which has four equal sides , its diagonal bisect each other at 90 degree.

Let x be the half of the other diagonal.

tan 60 = x / 9

x = 9 tan 60

x = 9√3

Area of the Rhombus = (d1 * d2 /2 )

d1 and d2 are the length of the diagonal.

Area of the Rhombus = (9*2)(2 *9√3)/2

Area of the Rhombus =162√3 sq.unit
