3 x minus 8 = negative x + 4 (x minus 2)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = all real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x minus 8 = negative x + 4 (x minus 2)

3x - 8 = -x + 4(x - 2)

3x - 8 = -x + 4x - 8

3x - 8 = 3x - 8

3x - 3x = -8 + 8

0 = 0

Since the result is a true statement, but 0 = 0, x is equivalent to all real numbers.

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since (k, 3) lies on each of the lines, the point satisfies the equations.

Substitute x = k, y = 3 into each and solve for k

y = 3x + 1

3 = 3k + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

2 = 3k ( divide both sides by 3 )

k = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

-------------------------------------------------------

y = 4x - 2

3 = 4k - 2 ( add 2 to both sides )

5 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

k = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

--------------------------------------------------------

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x

3 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] k ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

k = 6

---------------------------------------------------------

2x + 3y = 4

2k + 3(3) = 4

2k + 9 = 4 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

2k = - 5 ( divide both sides by 2 )

k = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

A television network is about to telecast a new television show. Before a show is launched, the network airs a pilot episode and receives a report assessing favorable or unfavorable viewer response. In the past, 60% of the network's shows have received a favorable response from viewers, and 40% have received an unfavorable response. If 50% of the network’s shows have received a favorable response and have been successful, and 30% of the network’s shows have received an unfavorable response and have been successful, what is the probability that this new show will be successful if it receives a favorable response? A. 0.41 B. 0.53 C. 0.67 D. 0.70 E. 0.83

Answers

Let's first denote:

F - a favorable response

F' - an unfavorable response

S - successful

We know that:

[tex]P(F) = 0.6\\\\P(F')=0.4\\\\P(F\cap S)=0.5\\\\P(F'\cap S)=0.3[/tex]

So, from the conditional probability, we can calculate:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 white and 4 yellow  = 6

P(yellow) = yellow /total = 4/6 = 2/3

We keep the ball

Now there are 2 white and 3 yellow  = 5

P(yellow) = yellow /total = 3/5

P ( yellow, keep, yellow) = 2/3 * 3/5 = 2/5

We are given 4 yellow balls and 2 white balls. In total, this adds up to 6.

Divide the number of yellow balls to the total number of balls:

4/6 -> 2/3

We are also given 3 yellow and 2 white.

Divide the number of yellow balls to the total number of balls:

3/5

Divide both fractions together:

3/5 * 2/3 = 6/15 = 2/5

3 4 5
y 13 22 37 58 85
(1 point)​

Answers

Answer:

The options are not visible enough (See Explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x:-  1   || 2   || 3   || 4   || 5

y:-  13 || 22 || 37 || 58 || 85

Required

Determine if the function is quadratic

Calculate the difference between the values of y

[tex]Difference = 22 - 13 = 9[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 37 - 22 = 15[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 58 - 37 = 21[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 85 - 58 = 27[/tex]

The resulting difference are: 9 || 15 || 21 ||  27

Next; Calculate the difference between the difference of values of y

[tex]Difference = 15 - 9 = 6[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 21 - 15 = 6[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 27 - 21 = 6[/tex]

The resulting difference are: 6 || 6 || 6

For the function to be quadratic, the above difference must be the same and since they are the same (6), then the function represents a quadratic function.

Evaluate -3.28 - (-4.4) + (-p) where p = 9.7

Answers

Answer:

-8.58

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 9.7

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) + (-p)

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) + (- (9.7))

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) + (-9.7)

=> -3.28 - (-4.4) -9.7

=> -3.28 +4.4 -9.7

=> -12.98 +4.4

=> -8.58

Answer:

The evaluated answer for this equation is -8.58

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a value of p so we will use this value for the equation.

-3.28 - (-4.4) + (-p)

Replace p with 9.7

-3.28 - (-4.4) + (-9.7)

Since there is a double negative in front of 4.4, then that means that we are going to be adding -3.28 to 4.4

1.12 + (-9.7)

Subtract 1.42 from 9.7 because there is negative sign in front of 9.7

-8.58

Victoria is scuba diving off the coast of Hawaii. When she is ready to come back to the surface, she rises 40 yards at a safe speed. She climbs 1 foot every 2 seconds. How many minutes will it take her to reach the surface?

Answers

Answer:

it will take her 79.76 minutes to rise to the surface

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance to the surface = 40 yards

speed of rising = 1 foot per seconds

1 foot = 1 second

since the total distance is in yards, let's convert from foot to yards:

1 yard = 3 feet

1 foot = 1/3 yards = 0.333 yards

0.33 yards = 1 second

Next, let's convert from seconds to minutes

60 seconds = 1 minute

∴ 1 second = 1/60 minute

1 second = 0.0167 minute

Therefore the speed at which she rose:

speed

0.333 yards = 0.0167 minutes

Now for a distance of 40 yards:

[tex]1\ yard = \frac{0.0333}{0.0167} minutes\\\therefore\ 40\ yards = \frac{0.0333}{0.0167} \ \times\ \frac{40}{1} \\= \frac{1.332}{0.0167} \\= 79.76\ minutes[/tex]

To find the area of the figure, you would have to divide the figure into two parts.  The figure can be divided into two rectangles.

Rectangle 1

The length is 11 3/4 in.  The width is 6 in.

A = lw

A = (11 3/4 in.)(6 in.)

A = 70 1/2 in.²

Rectangle 2

The length is 9 in.  The width is 6 3/4 in.

A = lw

A = (9 in.)(6 3/4 in.)

A = 60 3/4 in.²

Add the two areas together.

Answers

Answer:

m∠A = 62°

m∠C = 28°

AC = 17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle ABC,

m∠B = 90°, Cos(C) = [tex]\frac{15}{17}[/tex] and AB = 16 units

Since, Cos(C) = [tex]\frac{\text{Corresponding side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

Cos(C) = [tex]\frac{\text{Corresponding side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}=\frac{15}{17}[/tex]

[tex]\text{C}=\text{Cos}^{-1}(\frac{15}{17})[/tex]

m∠C = 28.07°

m∠C ≈ 28°

Therefore, side BC = 15 units and AC = 17 units

Now we apply Sine rule in the given triangle.

Sin(A) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

         = [tex]\frac{\text{BC}}{\text{AC}}[/tex]

         = [tex]\frac{15}{17}[/tex]

12x + 4y = 152 32x + 12y = 420 what is y?

Answers

Answer:

the value of x = 9  and y =11.

Given the system of equation:

12x + 4y =152                  .......[1]

32x + 12y = 420              ......[2]

Multiply equation [1] by 3 we get;

Using distributive property:  

            ......[3]

On solving equation [2] and [3] simultaneously we get;

x = 9

Substitute the value of x= 9 in [1] to solve for y;

108 + 4y = 152

Subtract 108 from both sides we have;

108 + 4y -108 = 152- 108

Simplify:

4y = 44

Divide both sides by 4 we get;

Simplify:

y= 11

therefore, the value of x = 9  and y =11.

PLEASE HELP ME Answer the following two questions in your own words: 1. Why can I divide instead of distribute? Why is that allowed? Ex. why can I divide by 6 in 6(3x + 4) = 12 instead of distribute the 6? 2. When creating common denominators, why do I have to multiply the numerator AND the denominator? Ex. why do I have to multiply 1 by 5 AND 2 by 5 when adding 1/2 + 3/10?

Answers

Answer:

1. You can divide both sides of an equation by any number except zero. If dividing both sides simplifies the equation, then it's better to do than than to distribute.

2. A fraction can be thought of as a ratio. To keep the value of the fraction the same, you must multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same number. If you multiply only the denominator by a number, the value of the fraction changes.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

6(3x + 4) = 12

Since the goal in solving this equation is to isolate x, meaning you want x alone on the left side, you need to do whatever legal operations that will accomplish that. Since 6 is a factor and (3x + 4) is a factor in a multiplication, you can divide both sides by 6 simplifying the left side. It is also correct to distribute on the left side, but it will make the solution longer.

Method 1: start by dividing both sides by 6

6(3x + 4) = 12

Step 1: Divide both sides by 6

3x + 4 = 2

Step 2: Subtract 4 from both sides

3x = -2

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3

x = -2/3

Method 2: start by distributing on the left side

6(3x + 4) = 12

Step 1: distribute the 6 on the left side

18x + 24 = 12

Step 2: subtract 24 from both sides

18x = -12

Step 3: divide both sides by 18

x = -12/18

Step 4: reduce the fraction

x = -2/3

As you can see, the solution is the same. The only difference is one extra step with the reduction  of the fraction in the case of distributing the 6.

2.

This has to do with the meaning of fractions.

For example, take the fraction 1/2.

This fraction means that you divided the unit into 2 equal parts, shown by the denominator of 2. Then you are taking 1 of those parts, shown by the numerator of 1. 1/2 means 1 out of 2. You can also think of 1/2 as the ratio of 1 to 2.

To add and subtract two factions, we need a common denominator. That means we must rewrite one or both fractions being added or subtracted in a way that they both have the same denominator. We need the fractions to represent the same amounts they did originally. If you changed only the denominator, you'd be changing the actual value of the fraction.

You need to add 1/2 and 3/10.

The least common denominator of 2 and 10 is 10, so we need to have both fractions with a denominator of 10. 3/10 already has a denominator of 10, so we just need to change 1/2 to a fraction with 10 in the denominator. By multiplying 2 by 5 we get 10, so we need to multiply the denominator of 1/2 by 5 to end up with a denominator of 10.

1/2 + 3/10

If you only changed the denominator of 1/2 to 10 by multiplying 2 * 5 = 10, you'd end up with

1/10 + 3/10,

but now think of the fraction 1/10 and compare it to 1/2.

1/2 means divide the unit into 2 equal parts and take 1 part.

1/10 means divide the unit into 10 equal arts and take 1 part.

1/2 is not the same as 1/10, so rewriting the addition

1/2 + 3/10 as 1/10 + 3/10 is actually changing the problem.

Now see what happens when we multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number, in this case 5.

We change 1/2 to (1 * 5)/(2 * 5) = 5/10. 1/2 equals 5/10. If you divide a unit into 10 equal parts and you take 5 parts, you have taken the same number of parts as if you had divided the unit into 2 parts and taken 1 part.

In other words, 1/2 is exactly the same amount as 5/10. The only difference between 1/2 and 5/10 is the way they are written.

Now we can correctly continue with the addition:

1/2 + 3/10 = 5/10 + 3/10 = 8/10

Finally we reduce 8/10 to 4/5 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 4.

which of the following statements must be true about this diagram ? check ALL that apply

Answers

Answer:

         Check A, B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

A. m∠4 = 180° - m∠3

   m∠1 = 180° - (m∠3 + m∠2)

  m∠3 < m∠3 + m∠2  ⇒  m∠4 >m∠1

B. m∠4 = 180° - m∠3

   m∠2 = 180° - (m∠3 + m∠1)

  m∠3 < m∠3 + m∠1  ⇒  m∠4 >m∠2

C. Not necessarily {could be but not always}

D.   m∠4 = 180° - m∠3

m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3 = 180°  ⇒  m∠1 + m∠2 = 180° - m∠3 = m∠4

E.  m∠3 = m∠1 + m∠2  only if m∠3 = 90°

F.  Not necessarily. {Could be but also could not be. In the picture is, but we don't know if the diagram is accurate or just approximate.}

HELPPPP ASAPPP !!!!! Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the intelligence of machines. The term also refers to the developing field of computer science that is responsible for creating intelligent machines. Scientists and engineers are working on computer software intended to imitate the human thought process, such as learning and reasoning. A computer can already do some things better than people, such as store information, solve numerical problems, and complete repetitive tasks. Computers have been able to perform these kinds of tasks by using algorithms, which are clearly defined sets of instructions. In contrast, AI software only presents a problem to the computer, not the steps necessary to solve the problem. The computer itself determines how to solve the problem. AI programs contain two essential components. First, the computer program must contain a knowledge base that includes different types of information, such as facts, concepts, and theories. The second component is enabling the computer to draw inferences, which means that the computer can form a conclusion based on facts and knowledge. In this scenario, a computer with AI intelligence is presented with a problem to be solved. The computer then searches its knowledge base for specific conditions or patterns that fit the problem to be solved. This ability of AI programs to solve a problem based on facts rather than on a fixed series of steps is what mimics the thought process of a human brain. Whether or not a computer can really think is still up for debate, even though there are numerous examples of machines that can be said to resemble human intelligence. For example, IBM developed Deep Blue, a chess-playing computer that defeated Garry Kasparov in 1997. However, even these kinds of computer programs are limited because they can only do what they have been programmed to do. Most scientists and researchers agree that machines currently lack the subtlety and range of human thought. However, as AI technology develops, more questions and debate will surely arise. The most important issue going forward is how AI technology can best serve the humans who created it. What does the author assume about the intended audience of the article? A. that readers are unfamiliar with computer programs B. that readers are capable of performing algorithms C. that readers are capable of programming computers D. that readers are new to the concept of AI programs young apple-tree, which, planted by birds or cows, had shot up amid the rocks and open woods there, and had now much fruit on it, uninjured by the frosts, when all cultivated apples were gathered. It was a rank wild growth, with many green leaves on it still, and made an impression of thorniness. The fruit was hard and green, but looked as if it would be palatable in the winter. Some was dangling on the twigs, but more half-buried in the wet leaves under the tree, or rolled far down the hill amid the rocks. The owner knows nothing of it. The day was not observed when it first blossomed, nor when it first bore fruit, unless by the chickadee. There was no dancing on the green beneath it in its honor, and now there is no hand to pluck its fruit,which is only gnawed by squirrels, as I perceive. It has done double duty,not only borne this crop, but each twig has grown a foot into the air. And this is such fruit! Bigger than many berries, we must admit, and carried home will be sound and palatable next spring. What care I for other apples so long as I can get these? 2 When I go by this shrub thus late and hardy, and see its dangling fruit, I respect the tree, and I am grateful for Natures bounty, even though I cannot eat it. Here on this rugged and woody hillside has grown an apple-tree, not planted by man, no relic of a former orchard, but a natural growth, like the pines and oaks. Most fruits which we prize and use depend entirely on our care. Corn and grain, potatoes, peaches, melons, etc., depend altogether on our planting; but the apple emulates mans independence and enterprise. It is not simply carried, as I have said, but, like him, to some extent, it has migrated to this New World, and is even, here and there, making its way amid the aboriginal trees; just as the ox and dog and horse sometimes run wild and maintain themselves. 3 Even the sourest and crabbedest apple, growing in the most unfavorable position, suggests such thoughts as these, it is so noble a fruit. Excerpt from "Wild Apples" by Henry David Thoreau. In the public domain. I Hear America Singing by Walt Whitman I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear, Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe and strong, The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam, The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work, 5The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck, The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter singing as he stands, The wood-cutters song, the ploughboys on his way in the morning, or at noon intermission or at sundown, The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work, or of the girl sewing or washing, Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else, 10The day what belongs to the dayat night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly, Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.
