Solve the following absolute value equation:

|2x-5|=7

x= -6 or x = 1
x = 6 or x = 1
x= -6 or x= -1
x = 6 or x= -1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 6                        x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have absolute value equations, we get two solutions, one positive and one negative

2x - 5 =7             2x -5= -7

Add 5 to each side

2x-5+5 = 7+5         2x -5+5 = -7+5

2x =12                     2x = -2

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =12/2               2x/2 = -2/2

x = 6                        x = -1

There are 4 blue tiles, 12 red tiles, and 6 green tiles in a bag. Which model represents the probability, P, that Luke will pick a red tile from the bag?

Answers

Answer:

The Probability that will pick a red tile from the bag

[tex]P(E) = \frac{6}{11}[/tex] = 0.545

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given data 4 blue tiles, 12 red tiles, and 6 green tiles in a bag

Total = 4 B + 12 R + 6 G = 22 tiles

Total number of exhaustive cases

         n (S) = [tex]22 C_{1} = 22 ways[/tex]

The Probability that will pick a red tile from the bag

[tex]P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)} = \frac{12 C_{1} }{22 C_{1} } = \frac{12}{22}[/tex]

[tex]P(E) = \frac{6}{11}[/tex]

P(E) = 0.545

Final answer:-

The Probability that will pick a red tile from the bag = 0.545

Which of the following is(are) the solution(s) to | x-1|-8?
A. X= 7.-9
B. X = 9
C. X = -79
D. X = 7

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-1|=8

if (x-1) >= 0 meaning x >= 1

then |x-1| = x-1

and then the solution of the equation is

x-1=8

<=> x = 9

if (x-1) <= 0 meaning x <= 1

then |x-1| = -(x-1) = -x+1

so the solution of the equation is

-x+1=8

<=> -x = 7

<=> x = -7

so the solutions are -7 and 9

Ten teaching assistants are available for grading papers in a particular course. The first exam consists of four questions, and the professor wishes to select a different assistant to grade each question (only one assistant per question). In how many ways can assistants be chosen to grade the exam

Answers

Answer:

There are 210 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways or combinations in which we can select x elements from a group of n elements where the order doesn't matter can be calculated as:

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

So, we have 10 teaching assistants and we need to choose 4 (one assistant per question) to grade each question. It means that n is equal to 10 and x is equal to 4.

Therefore, the number of ways that the assistants can be chosen to grade the exam are calculated as:

In a manufacturing process, a machine produces bolts that have an average length of 5 inches with a variance of .08. If we randomly select five bolts from this process, what is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]

And replacing:

[tex] \mu_{\bar X}= 5[/tex]

And the deviation:

[tex] \sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{0.283}{\sqrt{5}}= 0.126[/tex]

And the distribution is given:

[tex] \bar X \sim N(\mu= 0.08, \sigma= 0.126)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given :

[tex] \mu= 5. \sigma^2 =0.08[/tex]

And the deviation would be [tex] \sigma = \sqrt{0.08}= 0.283[/tex]

For this case we select a sample size of n = 5 and the distirbution for the sample mean would be:

[tex] \bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]

And replacing:

[tex] \mu_{\bar X}= 5[/tex]

And the deviation:

[tex] \sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{0.283}{\sqrt{5}}= 0.126[/tex]

And the distribution is given:

[tex] \bar X \sim N(\mu= 0.08, \sigma= 0.126)[/tex]

If the inter-quartile range is the distance between the first and third quartiles, then the inter-decile range is the distance between the first and ninth decile. (Deciles divide a distribution into ten equal parts.) If IQ is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 16, what is the inter-decile range of IQ

Answers

Answer:

The inter-decile range of IQ is 40.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 16[/tex]

First decile:

100/10 = 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So it is X when Z = -1.28.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.28 = \frac{X - 100}{16}[/tex]

[tex]X - 100 = -1.28*16[/tex]

[tex]X = 79.52[/tex]

Ninth decile:

9*(100/10) = 90th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.9. So it is X when Z = 1.28.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 100}{16}[/tex]

[tex]X - 100 = 1.28*16[/tex]

[tex]X = 120.48[/tex]

Interdecile range:

120.48 - 79.52 = 40.96

The inter-decile range of IQ is 40.96.

The cost to rent a moving truck is a flat fee of $25 plus $0.60 per mile. The equation c = 25 + 0.6m models the cost, c, in dollars for the number of miles, m, traveled in the truck. Identify the independent and dependent variables. The is the independent variable. The is the dependent variable.

Answers

Answer:

The m is the independent variableThe c is the dependent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, cost depends on mileage. Thus cost is the dependent variable.

As a general rule, if you have the form ...

  a = (some expression involving b)

you will find that "a" is the dependent variable, and "b" is the independent variable.

This problem statement gives you ...

  c = (an expression involving m)

"c" is the dependent variable; "m" is the independent variable.

The independent variable is m and the  dependent variable is c.

What are the dependent and independent variables?

The dependent variable is the outcome or result that is affected by the independent variable. The independent variable is the factor that is changed or manipulated in order to observe the effect on the dependent variable.

Given that, the cost to rent a moving truck is a flat fee of $25 plus $0.60 per mile.

The equation c = 25 + 0.6m models the cost, c, in dollars for the number of miles, m, traveled in the truck.

In the given equation c = 25 + 0.6m, c is the dependent variable and the m is the independent variable.

Therefore, the independent variable is m and the  dependent variable is c.

[tex](x + a)^{2} = x^{2} + 2ax + a^{2}[/tex]

In this question:

[tex](x + a)^{2} = x^{2} + 2ax + a^{2} = x^{2} + 2x + a^{2}[/tex]

We have to find a.

[tex]2a = 2[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]a = 1[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} + 2x + 1 = (x+1)^{2}[/tex]

Thus, we have to add 1 on the right side of the equality.

The circular area covered by a cell phone tower can be represented by the expression 225π miles2. What is the approximate length of the diameter of this circular area

Answers

Answer:

The length of the diameter of this circular area is of 30 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circular region can be represented by the following equation:

[tex]A = \pi r^{2}[/tex]

In which r is the radius. The diameter is twice the radius.

In this question:

[tex]A = 225\pi[/tex]

So

[tex]A = \pi r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]225\pi = \pi r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]r^{2} = 225[/tex]

[tex]r = \pm \sqrt{225}[/tex]

The radius is a positive measure, so

[tex]r = 15[/tex]

Area in squared miles, so the radius in miles.

What is the approximate length of the diameter of this circular area

D = 2r = 2*15 = 30 miles

The length of the diameter of this circular area is of 30 miles.

Find the probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds is P(X<368)=0.011.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a normal distribution with mean 460 and standard deviation 40 to describe the time for the mile run in its secondary-school fitness test.

We have to calculate the probabiltiy that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds.

To calculate this, we have to calculate the z-score for X=368:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{368-460}{40}=\dfrac{-92}{40}=-2.3[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

3.29 s

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Height of building=240

Initial velocity=20ft/s

The height of the ball  after t seconds is given by

[tex]h(t)=-16t^2-20t+240[/tex]

When the ball strike the ground then

h(t)=0

[tex]-16t^2-20t+240=0[/tex]

[tex]4t^2+5t-60=0[/tex]

Quadratic formula:

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Using the quadratic formula

[tex]t=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{25+960}}{8}[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{985}}{8}[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{-5+31.28}{8}=3.29 s[/tex]
