Answer: x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

2(6 + 3x) + 1 = - 5 + 3(x - 1)

(2) (6) + (2) (3x) + 1 = -5 + (3) (x) + (3) (-1)

12 + 6x + 1 = - 5 + 3x + - 1

( 6x ) + ( 12 - 1 ) = ( 3x ) + ( -5 + -3 )

6x + 13 = 3x - 8

6x + 13 - 3x = 3x - 8 - 3x

3x + 13 = -8

3x + 13 - 13 = -8 - 13

3x = -21

3x/3 -21/3

X = -7

This??? What is wrong with it?

ELEN [110]

Answer:

15.8 sq. in. of paper will be required.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is that a drinking cup does not have a cover, so only the lateral surface area counts.

I.e. We need only the first term.

A = pi r l = pi * 1.5 * sqrt(3^2+1.5^2)

= 15.81 sq. in.

How do i prove 2sec^2x-2sec^2xsin^2-sin^2x-cos^2x=1

kramer

$2\sec^2x-2\sec^2x\sin^2x-\sin^2x-\cos^2x=2\sec^2x(1-\sin^2x)-(\sin^2x+\cos^2x)$

Since $\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1$ , you have

$2\sec^2x(1-\sin^2x)-(\sin^2x+\cos^2x)=2\sec^2x\cos^2x-1$

and since $\sec x=\dfrac1{\cos x}$ , you end up with $2-1=1$ .

Marta is solving the equation S = 2πrh + 2πr^2 for h. Which should be the result?

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

h = $\frac{S}{2πr}$ - r

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires you to make h the subject of the formula.

S = 2πrh + 2πr²

subtract 2πr² on both sides.

S - 2πr² = 2πrh - 2πr² - 2πr²

S - 2πr² = 2πrh

Dividing both sides by 2πr

(S - 2πr²)/2πr = 2πrh/ 2πr

h = $\frac{S}{2πr}$ - r

Disks of polycarbonate plastic from a supplier are analyzed for scratch and shock resistance. The results from 100 disks are sum

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

0.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Disks of polycarbonate plastic from a supplier are analyzed for scratch and shock resistance. The results from 100 disks are summarized as follows:

P(A) = 0.86, P(B) = 0.79, P(A') = 0.14, P(AUB) = 0.95

We are to find out P(A'UB)

We have

$P(AUB) =P(A)+P(B)-P(A\bigcap B)\\0.95=0.86+0.79-P(A\bigcap B)\\P(A\bigcap B)=0.70$

$P(A'UB) = P(A')+P(B)-P(A' \bigcap B)\\= 1-P(A) +P(B)-[P(B)-P(A \bigcap B)]\\= 1-0.86+0.79-P(B)+[tex]P(A'UB)=0.14+0.79-0.79+0.70\\=0.84$ P(A \bigcap B)[/tex]
