Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a ratio problem which the ratios could be seen as fractions

x/14 = 10/20

then you and use the cross multiply method to solve this equation

20x = 140

x = 7

also another way is to find the previous 10/20 which gives you 1/2 and 1/2 of 14 is 7

The values of  x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions

<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>

The equation is given as:

2|x + 7|= x - 8

Expand the absolute bracket

|2x + 14|= x - 8

Remove the absolute bracket

2x + 14 = x - 8 and 2x + 14 = -x + 8

Evaluate the like terms

x = -22 and 3x = -6

This gives

x = -22 and x = -2

Hence, the values of  x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions

Dale currently has $599 in his savings account. Prior to getting paid, he had $230 in his savings account. How much was Dale’s p
nlexa [21]
Hi!

So really focus on the fact that he started at $230, and then added an amount of money which we'll call x, which made his total equal $599. 

Take the parts I put in bold, and write the equation.
$230 + x = $599

Now we need to find x. 

Whatever we do to the equation, we do it to both sides. 
Our goal is to isolate x on one side. 

Subtract 230 from both sides. 
$230 - $230 + x = $599 - $230
x = $369

The answer is A. $230 + x = $599 x = $369

Hope this helps! :)

A population of values has a normal distribution with μ = 158.9 μ = 158.9 and σ = 90.4 σ = 90.4 . You intend to draw a random sa
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

P_{39}=133.68    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 158.9

Standard Deviation, σ = 90.4

We are given that the distribution is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.39

P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 158.9}{90.4})=0.39  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

\displaystyle\frac{x - 158.9}{90.4} = -0.279\\\\x = 133.6784\approx 133.68  

P_{39}=133.68

133.68 separates the bottom 39% means from the top 61% means.

Elis [28]

Answer:

5 1/3 or 5.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the scale factor, you must divide the two equal sides.

\frac{6}{8}

which equals

\frac{3}{4} or 0.75

Now, the way to get the value of x is to divide 4 by 3/4 0r 0.75

\frac{4}{0.75}

Which equals

5.333 repeating or 5 1/3

Hope this helps. If you have any follow-up questions, feel free to ask.

Have a great day! :)
