Answer: 2
We are given the equation
x + 2 = 3x - 4
To solve for x.
Firstly, we need to collect the like terms
x - 3x = -4 - 2
-2x = -6
Divide both sides by -2
-2x/-2 = -6/-2
x = -6/-2
Negative sign will cancel negative sign
x = 6/2
x = 2
The answer is 2
This is a intro to statistics question, I was wondering if i can have the work shown soni can see the process, thanks :)Charges for advertising on a TV show are based on the number of viewers, which is measured by the rating. The rating is a percentage of the population of 110 million TV households. The CBS television show 60 Minutes recently had a rating of 7.8, indicating that 7.8% of the households were tuned to that show. An advertiser conducts an independent survey of 100 households and finds that only 10 were tuned to 60 Minutes. Assuming that the 7.8 rating is correct, find the probability of surveying 100 randomly selected households and getting 10 or fewer tuned to 60 Minutes. What does this suggest? Does the advertiser have grounds for claiming a refund on the basis that the size of the audience was exaggerated?
Step-by-step explanation:
7.8% were viewing the show.
so, when picking a single household the probability that is is watching the show is 0.078.
that also means that the probability that this household is not watching the show is 1 - 0.078 = 0.922.
"only" 10 of 100 were watching the show ? that is 10% and therefore a higher rate than measured by the rating agency.
there is no indication that the audience was exaggerated.
anyway, the probability to get 10 or fewer out of randomly picked 100 households to watch the show is
the probability of exactly 10 households watching +
the probability of exactly 9 households watching +
the probability of exactly 8 households watching +
...
the probability of exactly 1 household watching +
the probability of no (0) household watching.
to get the probabilty of any of these events :
x = number of households watching out of the overall 100.
w = probability of a household to watch = 0.078
a = probability of a household to be absent (= not watching) = 0.922
probability(x) = p(x) = w^x × a^(100-x) × c(100, x)
in other words :
the combined probability of "x" households watching and "a" households not watching (which must be 100-x) multiplied by the number of combinations of picking x households out of 100.
so, for the first one, x = 10, we get
p(10) = 0.078¹⁰ × 0.922⁹⁰ × 100! / (10! × (100 - 10)!) =
= 0.078¹⁰×0.922⁹⁰×100×99×...×91 / 10×9×8×...×2 =
= 8.335775831e-012 ×
0.00066955... ×
1.731030945644e+13 =
= 0.096612596...
the rest is then best via Excel or other spreadsheet applications.
p(9) = 0.125496...
p(8) = 0.145117...
p(7) = 0.147558...
p(6) = 0.129888...
p(5) = 0.096969...
p(4) = 0.059699...
p(3) = 0.0291
p(2) = 0.01053
p(1) = 0.002515...
p(0) = 0.000297...
and the sum of all that is the probability to have 10 or fewer households in randomly picked 100 watching the show :
0.843782...
the vast majority of samples of 100 households is expected to have 10 or fewer households watching the show.
this covers the general rating (that would suggest that 7.8 households of 100 are watching the show), some even better ranges (more than 7.8 households), but also everything that is worse than the original rating (below 7.8 households).
when we look at the individual probabilities, we see that the largest probabilities by far are in the categories of 9, 8, 7 and 6 households out of 100 are watching.
so, these are the main expected results when picking samples of 100 households.
therefore, I don't see any indication that the advertiser was "cheated".
Dilate the following points by each scale factor (k) provided.P(3, 4) by k=1/2 AndN(4, 15) by k=2
We are asked to dilate the given two points.
P(3, 4) by a scale factor of k = 1/2
Multiply the x and y coordinates by the scale factor.
[tex]P(3,4)\rightarrow P^{\prime}(\frac{1}{2}\cdot3,4\cdot\frac{1}{2})=P^{\prime}(1.5,2)[/tex]Therefore, the dilated point is P'(1.5, 2)
This is an example of reduction.
Similarly,
N(4, 15) by a scale factor of k = 2
Multiply the x and y coordinates by the scale factor.
[tex]N(4,15)\rightarrow N^{\prime}(2\cdot4,2\cdot15)=N^{\prime}(8,30)[/tex]Therefore, the dilated point is N'(8, 30)
This is an example of enlargement.

Answer:
y^2 = -12x
Explanation:
For a parabola whose vertex is at (0,0), its standard equation is
[tex]y^2=-4ax[/tex]where the directrix is given by x = a.
Now in our case, the vertex of our parabola is at (0,0) and the directrix is x = 3. This tells us that a = 3 and so the above equation gives
[tex]y^2=-4\cdot3x[/tex][tex]\boxed{y^2=-12x\text{.}}[/tex]which is our answer!
Which polynomial matches the description below?A binomial with two different variables and a degree of five.
A binomial has two monomials, that discard b and d options.
Two different variables discard a.
Therefore, the correct option is c.
Which measurements could not represent the side lengths of a right triangle?A) 3cm, 4cm, 5cmB)3cm, 5cm, 9cmC)12cm, 16cm, 20cmD)16cm, 63cm, 65cm
The Pythagorean theorem states that for a rigth triangle, the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides, symbolically:
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]To check if these sides lengths are of a rigth triangle you have to square them.
Remember that the hypothenuse is always the longest side.
So for the first set:
A)
3cm, 4cm and 5 cm
Lets take the side length 5cm as the hypothenuse
So a=3, b=4 and c=5
If the theorem checks then
[tex]3^2+4^2=5^2[/tex]Square all sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3^2=9 \\ 4^2=16 \\ 5^2=25 \end{gathered}[/tex]Add both squared sides:
[tex]9+16=25[/tex]The result is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, this means that this side lengths corresponds to a rigth triangle.
*-*-*
B)
a=3 cm
b=5 cm
c=9 cm (hypothenuse)
Square the three sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a^2=3^2=9 \\ b^2=5^2=25 \\ c^2=9^2=81 \end{gathered}[/tex]If the theorem checks then 9 + 25 must be equal to 81
[tex]9+25=34[/tex]The square sum of both sides is different from the quare of the hypotenuse, these side lengths do not correspond to a rigth triangle.
C)
a=12cm
b= 16 cm
c= 20 cm (hypothenuse)
Square the sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a^2=12^2=144 \\ b^2=16^2=256 \\ c^2=20^2=400 \end{gathered}[/tex]If the theorem checks then 144 plus 256 must be 400
[tex]144+256=400[/tex]The sum of squares of the sides is equal to the square of the hypothenuse, this set of side lengths belong to a right triangle.
D)
a=16cm
b=63cm
c=65cm (hypothenuse)
Square the sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a^2=16^2=256 \\ b^2=63^2=3969 \\ c^2=65^2=4225 \end{gathered}[/tex]If the theorem checks out, then 256 + 3969 must be equal to 4225:
[tex]256+3969=4225[/tex]The sum of squares of the sides is equal to the square of the hypothenuse, this set of side lengths belong to a right triangle.
In a sequence of numbers, a4= 98, a5= 99.2, a6= 100.4, a7= 101.6, and a8= 102.8. Based on this information,which equation can be used to find an, the nth term in the sequence?
Given:
a4 = 98
a5 = 99.2
a6 = 100.4
a7 = 101.6
a8 = 102.8
Use the arithmetic sequence formula below:
[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]Where,
an = nth term
a1 = first term
n = number of terms
d = common differnce
Let's solve for the common differnce.
d = a5 - a4 = 99.2 - 98 = 1.2
Use the 8th term a8, to find the first term:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 102.8=a_1+(8-1)1.2_{} \\ \\ 102.8=a_1+(7)1.2 \\ \\ 102.8=a_1+8.4 \\ \\ a_1=102.8-8.4\text{ = 94.4} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the first term a1 = 94.4
Thus, the equation for the nth term will be:
Input 94.4 for a1, 1.2 for d in the arithmetic formula above
[tex]\begin{gathered} a_n=94.4+(n-1)1.2 \\ \\ a_n=94.4+1.2n-1.2 \\ \\ \text{combine like terms:} \\ a_n=1.2n+94.4-1.2 \\ \\ a_n=1.2n+93.2 \end{gathered}[/tex]ANSWER:
[tex]a_n=1.2n+93.2[/tex]I'm having trouble with this problem "Solve the equation -8 + 6m = 1/2 (-4m +16) for m"
Let's begin by listing out the given information:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -8+6m=\frac{1}{2}(-4m+16) \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Let's proceed to expand the bracket. We have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -8+6m=\frac{1}{2}(-4m+16) \\ -8+6m=-2m+8 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]We will put like terms together, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 6m+2m=8+8 \\ 8m=16 \\ \text{Divide both sides by ''8'', we have:} \\ m=\frac{16}{8}=2 \\ m=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Meg plans to build a fence around her yard. She draws this diagram of the yard.How many meters of fencing material does Meg need?
The required figure is,
The length of fencing material required = Perimeter of the figure.
Perimeter is calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} Perimeter\text{ = sum of the length of all the sides} \\ Perimeter\text{ = 11.8 m + 18.5 m + 12.1 m +5.4 m + 6.4 m + 6.4 m } \\ Perimeter\text{ = 60.6 m} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus 60.6 m of fencing material is needed.
if sin = -3/5 and cos >0 what is exact value of cot?5/3-4/33/4-4/5
Explanation
Given the following information:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Sin=\frac{-3}{5} \\ Cos>0 \end{gathered}[/tex]This implies that the value of sin is negative while that of cos is positive.
This occurs in the fourth quadrant. This also means that the value of tan is negative.
We know that sin uses the value of the opposite and the hypotenuse.
We need to determine the value of the adjacent.
[tex]\begin{gathered} Adjacent=\sqrt{Hyp^2-Opp^2} \\ where \\ Hyp=5 \\ Opp=3 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} Adjacent=\sqrt{5^2-3^2}=\sqrt{25-9}=\sqrt{16} \\ Adj=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]We know that cot is the reciprocal of tan. The value of tan is given as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Tan=\frac{Opp}{Adj}=\frac{3}{4} \\ But\text{ tan is negative in the fourth quadrant. } \\ \therefore Tan=\frac{-3}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]We can now determine the value of cot to be:
[tex]Cot=\frac{-4}{3}(reciprocal\text{ of tan\rparen}[/tex]Hence, the answer is the second option i.e. -4/3.

I guess the annual retreat of the glacier is linear, and two points in the line are
[tex](0,1000),(15,745)[/tex]Where x is in years and y in meters.
We can find the equation of a line given two points by using the formula below
[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]In our case,
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-1000=\frac{745-1000}{15-0}(x-0) \\ \Rightarrow y-1000=-17x \\ \Rightarrow y=-17x+1000 \end{gathered}[/tex]2) Suppose that x=0 corresponds to the year 2010. Then, the information in the table is:

slo also has cell phone service from Varisoon Wireless. She pays a flat fee of $39.95for 350 minutes per month. Any minutes over 350 are at an additional cost. In November,Noslo's bill for wireless service was $108.70 for 475 minutes. What is the charge perminute for the minutes over 350 per month?
hello
Noslo spent 475minutes on call for that month, but we already know the price on the first 350 minutes
if Noslo is charged $39.95 for 350 minutes, we can subtract $39.95 from $108.70 and also 475 from 350 to know the cost and number of minutes respectively.
the number of minutes is
[tex]475-350=125\text{ minutes}[/tex]the cost of the minutes is
[tex]108.70-39.95=68.75[/tex]so, what this information implies is thar Noslo was charged $68.75 for 125 minutes.
we can easily find how much he's charged per minute from here.
let's make x represent that
[tex]\begin{gathered} 125=68.75 \\ 1=x \\ \text{cross multiply both sides} \\ x\times125=68.75 \\ 125x=68.75 \\ \text{divide both sides by the coefficient of x} \\ \frac{125x}{125}=\frac{68.75}{125} \\ x=0.55 \end{gathered}[/tex]from the calculations above, Nsolo was charged $0.55 per minute

Hence,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Each exterior angle = }\frac{360}{12} \\ \text{Each exterior angle = }30^0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, each exterior angle of a regular dodecagon is 30 degrees.
