Let p(x) = -2x - 9. If p(x) = -19, find x.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Flip the equation.

−2x−9=−19

Step 2: Add 9 to both sides.

−2x−9+9=−19+9

−2x=−10

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

Answer 2

Exact Form:

x = 9/17

Decimal Form:

x = 0.52941176…

Edit: "but what are the steps to get 9/17"

1. Move all terms containing x to the left side of the equation.

2. Divide each term by −17 and simplify.

2. Toss 4 times Imagine tossing a fair coin 4 times . (a ) Give a probability model for this chance process . (b) Define event B as getting exactly three tails . Find P(B)

Answers

Answer:

If a coin is tossed 4 times; number of possible outcomes = (2^4) = 16. 3 heads and 1 tail can occur from 4 tosses in (4C3)*(1C1) = 4*1 = 4 ways. So, the probability = (4 / 16) = (1 / 4) = 0.25.  

i didnt really understand the question but hope this helps

According to the information given, we have that:

a) A binomial model with [tex]p = 0.5[/tex] and [tex]n = 4[/tex] should be used.b) P(B) = 0.25.

For each coin, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is heads, or it is tails. The result of the flip of a coin is independent of any other flip, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes. n is the number of trials. p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

Item a:

The coin is tossed 4 times, hence [tex]n = 4[/tex].It is a fair coin, hence equally as likely to be heads and tails, which means that [tex]p = 0.5[/tex].

Hence, a binomial model with [tex]p = 0.5[/tex] and [tex]n = 4[/tex] should be used.

Item b:

P(B) is P(X = 3), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{4,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.25[/tex]

Hence, P(B) = 0.25.

A plane flies at 350 mph in the direction N 40° E with a wind blowing at 40 mph in the direction S 70° E. What is the plane’s drift angle?

Answers

Answer:

The drift angle is approximately 7.65° towards the East from the plane's heading

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the plane = 350 mph

The direction in which the plane flies N 40° E = 50° counterclockwise from the eastern direction

The speed of the wind = 40 mph

The direction of the wind = S 70° E = 20° clockwise from the eastern direction

The component velocities of the plane are;

[tex]R_{Plane}[/tex] = (350 × cos 50)·i + (350 × sin 50)·j

[tex]R_{Wind}[/tex] = (40 + cos 20)·i - (40 × sin 40)·j

The resultant speed of the plane = [tex]R_{Plane}[/tex] + [tex]R_{Wind}[/tex] = 265.915·i +242.404·j

The direction the plane is heading = tan⁻¹(242.404/265.915) ≈ 42.35°

Therefore, the drift angle = Actual Angle - Direction of the plane = 50 - 42.35 ≈ 7.65° towards the East

A business recently upgraded a conference TV they had in their conference room. Originally the TV was 32 inches (across the diagonal) and had a perimeter of 87.16 inches. The new TV is 70 inches across the diagonal. Since the new TV will be recessed in the wall, it will need trim put on the border. What is the perimeter of the new TV? Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The perimeter of the new TV is approximately  95.32 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal dimension of the original TV = 32 inches

The perimeter of the original TV = 87.16 inches

The diagonal dimension of the new TV = 70 inches

The perimeter of the new TV = 87.16 inches

For the original TV, we have;

Let w be the width of the original TV and l be the length of the original TV, we have;

2·w + 2·l = 87.16

√(w² + l²) = 32

Therefore, we have;

32² = w² + l²

w = (87.16 - 2·l)/2

w = 43.58 - l

32² = l² + (43.58 - l)²

l² + (43.58 - l)² - 32² = 0

l² + 43.58² - 2 × 43.85 × l + l² - 32² = 0

2·l² - 87.16·l + 875.2164 = 0

By the quadratic formula, we have;

l = (87.16 ± √((-87.16)² - 4×2 × 875.2164))/(2 × 2)

Therefore, l = 27.89 inches or l = 15.69

Therefore, w = (87.16 - 2·l)/2 = (87.16 - 2× 27.89)/2 = 15.69

or w = (87.16 - 2× 15.69)/2 = 27.89

Whereby the ratio of the width to the length of the original TV and the new TV are the same, we have;

15.69/27.89

w₂/l₂ for the new TV = 15.69/27.89

∴ w₂ = l₂ × 15.69/27.89

w₂² + l₂² = 70²

∴ (l₂ × 15.69/27.89)² + l₂² = 70²

l₂² × (15.69/27.89)² + l₂² = 70²

l₂²((15.69/27.89)² + 1) = 70²

l₂² = 70²/((15.69/27.89)² + 1) = 3722.04

l₂ = √(3722.04) ≈ 61.0

w₂ = l₂ × 15.69/27.89 = 61 × 15.69/27.89 ≈ 34.32

Therefore;

The perimeter of the new TV = 34.32 + 61 = 95.32 inches.

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge and information given to calculate the perimeter that will correspond to:

The perimeter of the new TV is approximately  95.32 inches

So the data for this exercise is from:

The diagonal dimension of the original TV = 32 inches The perimeter of the original TV = 87.16 inches The diagonal dimension of the new TV = 70 inches The perimeter of the new TV = 87.16 inches

Let w be the width of the original TV and l be the length of the original TV, we have;

[tex]2*(w) + 2*(l) = 87.16\\\sqrt{(w^2 + l^2)} = 32[/tex]

Therefore, we have:

[tex]32^2 = w^2 + l^2\\w = (87.16 - 2*l)/2\\w = 43.58 - l\\32^2 = l^2 + (43.58 - l)^2\\l^2 + (43.58 - l)^2 - 32^2 = 0\\l^2 + 43.58^2 - (2 * 43.85 * l)+ l^2 - 32^2 = 0\\(2)*(l)^2 - 87.16*l + 875.2164 = 0[/tex]

By the quadratic formula, we have;

[tex]l = (87.16 +/- \sqrt{((-87.16)^2 - 4*2 * 875.2164))/(2 * 2)} )[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]w = (87.16 - (2)*(l))/2 = (87.16 - 2* 27.89)/2 = 15.69\\w = (87.16 - 2* 15.69)/2 = 27.89[/tex]

Whereby the ratio of the width to the length of the original TV and the new TV are the same, we have;

w₂/l₂ for the new TV = [tex]15.69/27.89[/tex]

[tex]w_2 = (l_2)* (15.69/27.89)\\w_2^2 + l_2^2 = 70^2\\(l_2 *15.69/27.89)^2 + l^2_2 = 70^2\\l^2_2 * (15.69/27.89)^2 + l^2_2 = 70^2\\l^2_2((15.69/27.89)^2 + 1) = 70^2\\l^2_2 = 70^2/((15.69/27.89)^2 + 1) = 3722.04\\l_2 = \sqrt{(3722.04)} = 61.0\\w_2= l_2 * 15.69/27.89 = 61 * 15.69/27.89 = 34.32\\[/tex]

From the information given, can you prove that the triangles congruent using SAS congruent postulate? If not, what do you need to know to make the triangle congruent using the SAS congruence postulate?

Answers

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

to prove congruency of two triangles, you need two congruent sides and one congruent angle

in this case we are given exactly that, 2 sides and one angle that is congruent

we would also need to make sure that the given sides and angles are actually congruent, and not mismatched

we can do this by looking at the positions of the letters in each congruency statement

for example, the letters LO and MA are the first two letters in each triangle's name, this means that they are congruent and properly matched

if you do this with every statement that you are give, you can see that the triangles can be proven by SAS

In a Petri dish there are currently 1,235 bacteria. The growth rate of bacteria is 3.25% How many bacteria will be there in the dish after 5 hours

Answers

Answer:

....

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1,436

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply the growth rate by the number of hours.

3.25 x 5 = 16.25

Now multiply 1,235 by 100. = 123,500

And also multiply 1235 by the remainder percentage not being used(83.75)= 103,060.75

Now subtract 123,500 - 103,060.75 = 20,439.25

Divide this number by 100 = 204.3925 which is what 16.25% of 1,235 is.

1,235 + 204 = about 1,439 but since i rounded up a few times the answer is actually 1,435.6875 rounded up to 1,436

There are 20 boys and 16 girls. what is the largest number of groups that you can form such that boys and girls are distributed equally among the groups?​

As you can see 4 is the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

so, the largest number of groups are 4

Unless you are asking for how many girls and boys can be fit in each group then,

20 ÷ 4 = 5

16 ÷ 4 = 4
