Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first eq. by 3 and second by 4 to get rid of y

15x+12y=24

8x-12y=68

add the equations

23x = 92

divide both sides by 23

x=92/23=4

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 4y = 8 → (1)

2x - 3y = 17 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 3 and (2) by 4 then adding will eliminate the y- term

15x + 12y = 24 → (3)

8x - 12y = 68 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate y, that is

23x = 92 ( divide both sides by 23 )

x = 4

Which expression can be expanded using the binomial theorem?
kirill [66]

Answer:

The third choice:  (x² - 1)³

Step-by-step explanation:

That is the only expression that is a binomial.  Binomial means "two numbers".  For this expression, x² is one number, and -1 is the other.  Choice 1 is a monomial (one number) and choices 2 and 4 are trinomials (three numbers)

A certain forest covers an area of 2400 km^2. Suppose that each year this area decreases by 5.75%. What will the area be after 8
kolezko [41]
We have to use the function A(t)= a(1 +/- r)^t
So A is going to be the answer- the area after 8 years. t is going to be 8, because t is time. a is 2400 because that's the starting value. Finally, we're going to turn 5.75% into it's decimal form of .0575. That's going to be r, and because the area is decreasing, we will subtract r from 1.
Our new function is:
A=2400(1-.0575)^8
Simplify a little bit.
A=2400(.9425)^8
Bring .9425 to to power of 8 and then multiply by 2400 because PEDMAS.
A=1494.38366866
The rounded answer is 1494 kilometers squared.

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

1. The minimum head breadth that will fit the clientele is of 3.95-in.

2. The maximum head breadth that will fit the clientele is of 9.25-in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 6.6-in and a standard deviation of 1.1-in.

This means that \mu = 6.6, \sigma = 1.1

1. What is the minimum head breadth that will fit the clientele?

The 0.8th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.008, so X when Z = -2.41.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-2.41 = \frac{X - 6.6}{1.1}

X - 6.6 = -2.41*1.1

X = 3.95

The minimum head breadth that will fit the clientele is of 3.95-in.

2. What is the maximum head breadth that will fit the clientele?

The 100 - 0.8 = 99.2nd percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.992, so X when Z = 2.41.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

2.41 = \frac{X - 6.6}{1.1}

X - 6.6 = 2.41*1.1

X = 9.25

The maximum head breadth that will fit the clientele is of 9.25-in.
