Answer:

x = the first mystery number = 2

y = the second mystery number = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = the first mystery number

y = the second mystery number

8*x + 10*y = 24

8x + 10y = 24

7*x + 10*y = 26

7x + 10y = 26

8x + 10y = 24 (1)

7x + 10y = 26 (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate y

8x - 7x = 26 - 24

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into (1)

8x + 10y = 24 (1)

8(2) + 10y = 24

16 + 10y = 24

10y = 24 - 16

10y = 8

y = 8/10

y = 0.8

x = the first mystery number = 2

y = the second mystery number = 0.8

If f(x) = 4x^3 + Ax^2 + 7x - 1 and f(2) = 3, what is the value of A?<br> (^ = powers)
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

A = -10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of "A", you can plug x = 2 and f(x) = 3 into the equation. This will allow you to simplify and find the value of "A".

f(x) = 4x³ + Ax² + 7x - 1                     <---- Original equation

3 = 4(2)³ + A(2)² + 7(2) - 1                 <---- Plug x = 2 and f(x) = 3 into equation

3 = 4(8) + A(4) + 14 - 1                      <---- Solve 2³ and 2²

3 = 32 + A(4) + 14 - 1                        <---- Multiply 4 and 8

3 = 45 + A(4)                                    <---- Combine like terms

-42 = A(4)                                         <---- Subtract 45 from both sides

-10.5 = A                                         <---- Divide by 4

If A = -10.5, the final equation would look like this:

f(x) = 4x³ - 10.5x² + 7x - 1

Answer:

$12.96

Step-by-step explanation:

determine what the decimal form of 8% is

⇒ 8% = 0.08

multiply $12 by 0.08

⇒ $12 x 0.08

add $0.96 to $12

⇒ $12 + $0.96

Bryce randomly chooses a card from a standard deck of 52 containing 13 of each suit. He records the suit of each card in the tal
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

52 cards  / 4 suits  = 13 cards of each suit.

Theoretically picking a heart would be 13/52 = 1/4 probability.

Experimentally she picked 15 hearts out of 80 total tries. for a 15/80 = 3/16 probability, which is less than the theoretical probability.

1/4 - 3/16 = 1/16

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The right answer is A - The theoretical probability of choosing a heart is StartFraction 1 over 16 EndFraction greater than the experimental probability of choosing a heart
