Hello,
|x+4|=3x-5
if x+4>=0 then
|x+4|=x+4
x+4=3x-5
2x=9
x=9/2
else
x+4<0 : x<-4
|x+4|=-(x+4)
-(x+4)=3x-5
-x-4=3x-5
4x=1
x=1/4 : to exclude since x<-4
end if
Only one solution : x=9/2
ANSWER B.
Answer:
(- 2, - 10 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = x - 8 → (1)
y = 5x → (2)
Substitute y = 5x into (1)
5x = x - 8 ( subtract x from both sides )
4x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = - 2
Substitute x = - 2 into either of the 2 equations for y
Substituting into (1)
y = - 2 - 8 = - 10
solution is (- 2, - 10 )
Answer:
4.75% probability that the battery will last more than 9 hours before running out of power
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that the battery will last more than 9 hours before running out of power g
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 9. So



has a pvalue of 0.9525
1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475
4.75% probability that the battery will last more than 9 hours before running out of power
Answer:
18 & -2
Step-by-step explanation:
18 + -2 = 16
18 - -2 = 20
The average of the first three is 83 (85 + 90 + 74)/3
The average of the next 3 is 86.
The difference is 3
