Answer:

x > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve -2x <-12 for x. Your answer must be a set of real numbers.

Divide both sides by -2. Note that if we here divide by a negative number, we must reverse the direction of the inequality symbol:

-2x < - 12

----- ------

-2 -2

This becomes x > 6, "the solution set"

Answer:

The probability that the 2nd Heads occurred at the 4th toss is 5.99%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there were 4 Heads in the first 7 tosses, to find the probability that the 2nd Heads occurred at the 4th toss the following calculation must be performed:

7 - 4 = 3

4/7 x 3/7 x 3/7 x 4/7 = X

0.571 x 0.428 x 0.428 x 0.571 = X

0.0599 = X

Therefore, the probability that the 2nd Heads occurred at the 4th toss is 5.99%.

Solve for x (-4/3) x - 6 = -26 A. −27 B. −15 C. 15 D. 27

andre [41]

$- \dfrac{4}{3} x - 6 = -26$

//Add 6 to both sides:
$- \dfrac{4}{3} x = -20$

//Multiply by -1 on both sides:
$\dfrac{4}{3} x = 20$

Multiply by 3 on both sides:
$4x = 60$

Divide by 4 on both sides:
$x = 15$

Answer: x = 15 (Answer C)

Suppose X and Y represent two different school populations where X > Y and X and Y must be greater than 0. Which of the follo

Stells [14]

Answer:(X+Y)²

X²+Y² would be greater than X²-Y² since addition gives a greater result than subtraction.

X²+Y² would be greater than 2(X+Y); this is because 2(X+Y) = 2X+2Y, which will be less than X²+Y², since X>Y.

(X+Y)² = (X+Y)(X+Y). This can be simplified using the distributive property:

X(X)+X(Y)+Y(X)+Y(Y) = X²+XY+YX+Y² = X²+2XY+Y². This is greater than X²+Y².
