Hello!

$\mathcal{SOLUTION:}$

Move all the x's to the left, using the opposite operation:

2x+6x-16≥32
Now, move all the numbers to the right, using the opposite operation:
2x+6x≥32+16
Combine Like Terms:
8x≥48
Divide both sides by 8:
x≥6

Final Answer:

x≥6

I hope it helps.

Good luck & enjoy your day!

In how many different ways can a jury of 12 people be randomly selected from a group of 40 people?

kupik [55]

Answer:

There are 5,586,853,480 different ways to select the jury.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order is not important.

For example, if we had sets of 2 elements

Tremaine and Tre'davious would be the same set as Tre'davious and Tremaine. So we use the combinations formula.

Combinations formula:

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

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

In how many different ways can a jury of 12 people be randomly selected from a group of 40 people?

Here we have $n = 40, x = 12$ .

$C_{40,12} = \frac{40!}{12!(28)!} = 5,586,853,480$

There are 5,586,853,480 different ways to select the jury.

Sally has made a scale drawing of the airplane, in which the wingpsan is 10 inches and the tailspan is 3 inches. What is the act

Alina [70]

My first impulse is to say you don't provide enough info with which to solve this problem. We need to know how many inches in the model correspond to 1 foot in the actual plane (that is, the scale factor). What is the scale factor here?

Which is the equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin with y-intercepts +12 -12, and asymptote y=3x/2

dangina [55]

Answer:

$\frac{y^2}{144}-\frac{x^2}{64}=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin with vertices on the y-axis is given by: $\frac{y^2}{a^2}-\frac{x^2}{b^2}=1$

The vertices of the hyperbola are the y-intercepts (0,12) and (0,-12)

This implies that:

$2a=|12--12|$

$2a=24$

$a=12$

The asymptote equation of a hyperbola is given by:

$y=\pm\frac{a}{b}x$

The given hyperbola has asymptote: $y=\pm\frac{3}{2} x$

By comparison; $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{3}{2}$

$\implies \frac{12}{b}=\frac{12}{8}$

$\implies b=8$

The required equation is:

$\frac{y^2}{12^2}-\frac{x^2}{8^2}=1$

$\frac{y^2}{144}-\frac{x^2}{64}=1$
