Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 6 = 2(x + 4)

~Simplify

3x - 6 = 2x + 8

~Add 6 to both sides

3x = 2x + 14

~Subtract 2x to both sides

x = 14

Best of Luck!

X= 14

2(X+4) = 2x+8
3x-6 = 2x+8
-6=2x-3x+8
-14 = -1x
X=14

Assume that there are an equal number of births in each month so that the probability is that a person chosen at random was born

NikAS [45]

Answer:

0.2773 = 27.73% probability that at the May celebration, exactly two members of the group have May birthdays

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a birthday in May, or they do not. The probability of a person having a birthday in May is independent of any other person. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Probability of a person being in May:

May has 31 days in a year of 365. So

$p = \frac{31}{365} = 0.0849$

Group of 20 friends:

This means that $n = 20$

What is the probability that at the May celebration, exactly two members of the group have May birthdays?

This is P(X = 2).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.0849)^{2}.(0.9151)^{18} = 0.2773$

0.2773 = 27.73% probability that at the May celebration, exactly two members of the group have May birthdays

The points (-6, r)<br> and<br> (6,3) lie on a line with slope 3/4. Find the missing coordinate r.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

r=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} \\\frac{3-r}{6-(-6)} =\frac{3}{4} \\4(3-r)=3(12)\\12-4r=36\\-4r=24\\r=-6$

Use logarithms to solve the equation for t. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

mezya [45]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

2.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by (1+6e^(-.7t))/1000:

2000/1000 = 1 +6e^(-0.07t)

1 = 6e^(-0.07t) . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

e^(0.07t) = 6 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by e^(0.07t)

0.07t = ln(6) . . . . . . . . . take the natural log

t = ln(6)/0.07 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

t ≈ 2.55966 ≈ 2.56

3/8-1/4=?<br><br> Answer ……..

Vlad1618 [11]

Step 1: Find the LCD (Least Common Denominator)

The LCD between 4 and 8 is 8. Therefore, if I change all of the fractions to have a denominator of 8, the problem is as such:

3/8 - 2/8 = ?

Step 2: Subtract

3/8 - 2/8 = 1/8

Hope this helps!
