Answer: 39 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

At first, the warehouse worker loads a cart with 14 boxes and the boxes have an average weight of 24 pounds. The total weight of the boxes will be:

= 14 × 24

= 336 pounds

Since the worker picks up a new box and puts it on the cart and the average weight of the boxes is 25 pounds. It means that the boxes are now 15 and their total weight will be:

= 15 × 25

= 375 pounds

The weight of the new box will be:

= 375 - 336

= 39 pounds

HELPPPPP! Tamlin collects action figures and has 2 more female action figures than male action figures. He chooses two action fi
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

x+2/2(2x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Tamlin has x male action figures and x + 2 female action figures, so a total of x + x + 2, or 2x + 2 action figures. The probability of picking two female action figures without replacement is equal to the product of the probability of

-picking 1 female action figure from the total number and

-picking 1 female action figure after 1 has been removed.

The probability of picking 1 female action figure from the total is equal to the total number of female action figures divided by the total number of action figures.

The probability of picking 1 female action figure after 1 has been removed is equal to the total number of female action figures minus 1 divided by the total number of action figures minus 1.

Multiply these two expressions and simplify.

Find the smallest zero for the function h(x) =4x squared -8x-60
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The smallest zero is x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

h(x)=4x^2-8x-60

To find the zeros of this function, we equate it to zero.

\Rightarrow 4x^2-8x-60=0

Dividing through by 4 gives

x^2-2x-15=0

We split the middle term to get;

x^2-5x+3x-15=0

Factor

x(x-5)+3(x-5)=0

Factor further to get;

(x-5)(x+3)=0

(x-5)=0,(x+3)=0

The zeros are

x=5,x=-3

The smallest zero is

x=-3

Solve<br> 3x+1=x+5<br> The solution is x
solong [7]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+1=x+5

Subtract x from each side to get all the variables on one side

3x-x+1=x-x+5

2x+1 = 5

Subtract 1 from each side to get all the constants on the other side

2x+1-1 = 5-1

2x= 4

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =4/2

x =2
