WITCHER [35]3 years ago

Answer:

A. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: one of the properties of a parallelogram is that the diagonals bisect each other. This means that:

LJ = 2(LW)

11x + 2 = 2(5x + 2)

11x + 2 = 10x + 4

11x + 2 - 2 = 10x + 4 - 2

11x = 10x + 2

11x - 10x = 10x + 2 - 10x

x = 2

✅LW = 5x + 2

Plug in the value of x

LW = 5(2) + 2

LW = 10 + 2 = 12

Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = -4 when x = 25. What is x when y = 10? SHOW ALL YOUR WORK HERE OR YOU WON'T GET CREDIT
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

x = -62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx

-4 = k(25)

k = -4/25

y = (-4/25)x

10 = (-4/25)x

x = 10 × 25/-4

x = -62.5

Determine whether this system of equations has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions.
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The only solution I see is for x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

y=8x+2

y=-8x+2

y=y so substitute:

8X+2=-8X+2

Subtract 2 from each side

8X=-8X

divide each side by 8

x=-x

The only solution I see is for x=0

The diameter of a particle of contamination (in micrometers) is modeled with the probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 for x
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a) 0.96

b) 0.016

c) 0.018

d) 0.982

e) x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the Probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 where x > 1.

<em>Firstly we will calculate the general probability that of P(a < X < b) </em>

       P(a < X < b) =  \int_{a}^{b} \frac{2}{x^{3}} dx = 2\int_{a}^{b} x^{-3} dx

                            = 2[ \frac{x^{-3+1} }{-3+1}]^{b}_a   dx    { Because \int_{a}^{b} x^{n} dx = [ \frac{x^{n+1} }{n+1}]^{b}_a }

                            = 2[ \frac{x^{-2} }{-2}]^{b}_a = \frac{2}{-2} [ x^{-2} ]^{b}_a

                            = -1 [ b^{-2} - a^{-2}  ] = \frac{1}{a^{2} } - \frac{1}{b^{2} }

a) Now P(X < 5) = P(1 < X < 5)  {because x > 1 }

     Comparing with general probability we get,

     P(1 < X < 5) = \frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{5^{2} } = 1 - \frac{1}{25} = 0.96 .

b) P(X > 8) = P(8 < X < ∞) = 1/8^{2} - 1/∞ = 1/64 - 0 = 0.016

c) P(6 < X < 10) = \frac{1}{6^{2} } - \frac{1}{10^{2} } = \frac{1}{36} - \frac{1}{100 } = 0.018 .

d) P(x < 6 or X > 10) = P(1 < X < 6) + P(10 < X < ∞)

                                = (\frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{6^{2} }) + (1/10^{2} - 1/∞) = 1 - 1/36 + 1/100 + 0 = 0.982

e) We have to find x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 ;

               ⇒  P(1 < X < x) = 0.75

               ⇒  \frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{x^{2} } = 0.75

               ⇒  \frac{1} {x^{2} } = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25

               ⇒  x^{2} = \frac{1}{0.25}   ⇒ x^{2} = 4 ⇒ x = 2  

Therefore, value of x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 is 2.
