Let the unknown number be x.

<span>sum of a number and one: x + 1
</span>
<span>sum of a number and one is doubled: 2(x + 1)
</span>
<span>three less than the number: x - 3

2(x + 1) = x - 3

2x + 2 = x - 3

x + 2 = -3

x = -5

The number is -5.

Let x and y be independent each uniformly distributed on {1,2,...,n} find p(x &lt; y )
bulgar [2K]
If we draw the contingency table of x (vertical) against y (horiz.), we have a square.
For n=4, we have   (legend:  < : x<y   = : x=y   > : x>y

y      1  2  3  4
x
1      = <  <  <
2      > =  <  < 
3      >  >  = <
4      >  >  >  =

We see that there are n(n-1)/2 cases of x<y out of n^2.
Therefore, 
p(x<y)=n(n-1)/(2n^2)=(n-1)/(2n)

However, if the sample space is continuous, it will be simply p(x<y)=1/2.

The angle of elevation to the top of a 15-story skyscraper is measured to be 4from a point on the ground 2,500 feet from the bui
alexandr1967 [171]

The point of observation is 2500 m away from the foot of the building.

The angle of elevation is 4°.

We need to find the height 'h' of the building.

With respect to 4°,

2500 is the adjacent side.

'h' is the opposite side.

The trigonometric ratio associating opposite & adjacent is tan.

We have

tan\theta =\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

tan4^{o}=\frac{h}{2500}

Cross multiplying we get

h = 2500 tan4°

h= 174.82 m

Option B) is the right answer.

Help asap please:<br><br> Solve x-7y=16 for y
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

y = (x-16)/7

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 7y = 16

~Subtract x to both sides

-7y = 16 - x

~Divide -7 to everything

y = (16-x)/7

Best of Luck!
