Solve for x for 1 and 2

Mathematics
1 answer:
taurus [48]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1. 37.5

2. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. the smaller triangle and the bigger triangle are similar, so the sides are also similar.

this means that 16/46 = 20/(x+20)

then, just solve that for x

16/46 = 20/(x+20)

divide both sides by 4

4/46 = 5/(x+20)

multiply both sides by (x + 20)

(x+20) * 4/46 = 5

multiply both sides by 46

4x + 80 = 230

subtract 80

4x = 150

divide 4

x = 37.5

2. do the same thing ( still similar triangles)

the equation would be (3x + 1)/10 = (7x - 1)/22

solve

22(3x + 1) = 10(7x - 1)

66x + 22 = 70x - 10

32 = 4x

x = 8

Suppose the point P = ( - 10,6) is reflected across the x-axis to the point P'.
mash [69]

Answer:

(-10,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

When this point is reflected in the x-axis, the y-coordinates change from either positive to negative or negative to positive. The x-coordinates will not change.

Since the y-coordinates is originally positive, it will change to negative. Giving us our answer of:

(-10,-6)

Find the zeros of the polynomial p(x) 5-10x​
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial is :

p(x) = 5-10x​

We need to find the zeros of the above polynomial. To find it, put p(x) = 0

5-10x​ = 0

Subtract 5 from both sides

5-10x​-5=0-5

-10x=-5

or

10x=5

Divide both sides by 10.

x = 0.5 = 1/2

Hence, the zeros of the polynomial is 1/2.

Suppose 40% of all college students have a computer at home and a sample of 64 is taken. What is the probability that more than
Art [367]

Answer:

0.13093

Step-by-step explanation:

Give. That :

Population mean = 40% = 0.4

Sample size (n) = 64

Probability that more than 30 have computer at home

Mean = np = 64 * 0.4 = 25.6

Standard deviation = sqrt(n*p*(1-p)) = 3.919

P(x > 30)

USing the relation to obtain the standardized score (Z) :

Z = (x - m) / s

Z = (30 - 25.6) / 3.919 = 1.1227353

p(Z < 1.122) = 0.13093 ( Z probability calculator)
