DF=78, DE=5x-9, and EF-2x+10, find EF

Mathematics
1 answer:
lbvjy [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

As e is point between df. So we can write df as

df = de + ef

As given df = 78 , de = 5x - 9 , ef = 2x + 10.

So we can write

78 = 5x - 9 + 2x + 10

78 = 7x + 1

On subtracting 1 on booth side

78 - 1 = 7x +1 - 1

77 = 7x

On dividing both side by 7.

11 = x

So x = 11.

So ef = 2x + 10 = 2*11 + 10 = 22 + 10 = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x using zeros of function method<br>-x³+2x²+x-2=0​
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

x = - 1, x = 1, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of the polynomial sum to zero, that is

- 1 + 2 + 1 - 2 = 0

This indicates that x = 1 is a zero

let x = - 1, then

- (- 1)³ + 2(- 1)² + (- 1) - 2 = 1 + 2 - 1 - 2 = 0

Thus x = - 1 is a zero

let x = 2

- (2)³ + 2(2)² + 2 - 2 = - 8 + 8 + 2 - 2 = 0

Thus x = 2 is a zero

The 3 zeros are x = - 1, x = 1, x = 2

A case in riverhead, new york, nine different crime victims listened to voice recordings of five different men. all nine victims
Alexus [3.1K]

the complete question in the attached figure

1) Find the probability that all nine victims would select the same person. You should enter your answer as a decimal, not as a percent. Do not round, as your answer should be a terminating decimal.

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.000000512

2) what is the probability that the first victim picks SOMEONE? ANYONE? 

P=(1/5)=0.20  ---------------- > 20%

3) Now let’s look at victim #2. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1?

P=(1/5)*(1/5)=0.04 --------------> 4%

4) Now let’s look at victim #3. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1?

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.008 --------------> 0.8%

5) Now let's look at victim #9. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1? 

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.000000512

6) Once you find all those probabilities, what rule would apply?

the probability is given by (1/5)^n

n=number of victims that pick the same person---------> in this problem = 9

P=(1/5)^9= 0.000000512
