X^2 + x = 42
sum indicates addition
a number = x
it's square = x^2
The equation is
X = 2
because if it's parallel to the y axis, it goes straight through one single X co-ordinate.
Answer:
-1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
in y=mx+b, m represents the slope. Let's try to get your equation to look like that. We can see that on the left side, the y is not yet alone so we must try to accomplish that. to do that we divide by -8 from the -8y, but we must also do that to the other side. you would get y=-2/8x-5/8. then we would simplify the -2/8x into -1/4x. Now it is y=-1/4x-5/8 and that resembles y=mx+b. m is slope and -1/4 is m.
Answer:
( a ) Probability that the test comes back negative for all four people = .9723
( b ) Probability that t he test comes back positive for at least one of the four people = .0277
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The probability of the test will accurately come back negative if the antibody is not present = 99.1
= .991
The probability of the test will accurately come back positive if the antibody is not present = .009
Suppose the test is given to four randomly selected people who do not have the antibody .
( a ) Probability that the test comes back negative for all four people =
=
= .9723
If we say E = P( all 4 test are negative) or we say E = P( not of the all 4 test are positive)
P( at least one of the 4 test are positive) = 1 - P( not of the all 4 test are positive) = 1 - P( all 4 test are negative)
( b ) Probability that t he test comes back positive for at least one of the four people = 1 - P( all 4 test are negative)
= 1 - .9723
= .0277
Answer:
The three consecutive integers are 19, 20, and 21. And 19 + 21 = 40.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first integer be x.
The next consecutive integer would be x + 1 and the next x + 2.
The equation for the sum of the first and third integer equaling 40 can then be written as:
x + (x + 2) = 40
Solving gives:
2x + 2 = 40
2x + 2 - 2 = 40 - 2
2x = 38
x = 19
