Any help with this question please?

Consider this equation.
c = ax – bx
Joseph claims that if a, b, and c are non-negative integers, then the equation has exactly one solution for x. Select all cases that show Joseph’s claim is incorrect.
A. a – b = 1, c ≠ 1
B. a = b, c = 0
C. a ≠ b, c = 0
D. a – b = 1, c = 0
E. a = b, c ≠ 0

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B.a=b, c≠0

C.a=b, c=0

D.a-b=1, c≠1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is c = ax - bx. We can factor the right-hand side to obtain an equivalent equation which is c = (a-b)x

Let’s explore each answer choice given. We are looking for cases where there is no one solution for the equation.

A

a-b = 1 so the right-hand side becomes 1x and we have x=c. Since c is 0 we have one solution that is x=0

B

a=b so a-b =0 and the equation becomes 0=c but the answer choice says c does not equal zero. So in this case there is no solution. This is a correct answer to the problem.

C

This is the same as choice B but since C =0 both sides of the equation equal zero. We get 0=0 but notice that this is true no matter what the value of x is so this equation is called identity and any value of x will do so there isn’t one solution but rather infinitely many. This is another right answer.

D

Here a-b=1 so we end up with x = c and since c doesn’t equal one any value of x except 1 is a solution so there isn’t one solution but infinitely many. This too is an answer to the question.

E

Since a doesn’t equal b and since c = 0 we have (a-b)x = 0 so. Either a-b is zero but since a and b are different this can’t be or x is zero. This there is one solution: x=0.

From the above, the answer to the question is choices B, C, and D

A car journey is in two stages Stage1 the car travels 110 miles in 2 hours Stage 2 the car travels 44 miles at the same average speed as stage 1 Work out the time for stage 2 Give you answer in minutes.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed for stage 1 is ...

  speed = distance/time = (110 mi)/(2 h) = 55 mi/h

Then the time for stage 2 is ...

  time = distance/speed = (44 mi)/(55 mi/h) = (4/5 h)(60 min/h) = 48 min

The time for stage 2 is 48 minutes.

Answer:

Solution :-

We know that

SpeeD = Distance/Time

Speed = 110/2

Speed = 55 mi/hr

For, 2

Speed = 44/55

Speed = 4/5

Speed = 48 min

А Campus athletics is interested in the proportion of registered students living on campus who play basketball recreationally during the semester. They take a random sample of 198 registered students listed as living in campus housing and ask each whether or not they do so. A 95% confidence interval is correctly calculated from this data as (0.12, 0.18). Which of the following is the correct interpretation of this confidence interval ?
a. None of these are correct.
b. We are 95% confident that the proportion of the 198 sampled students that actually play basketball is between 0.12 and 0.18
c. We are 95% confident that, among the population of students that play basketball recreationally, the proportion who live on campus is between 0.12 and 0.18.
d. The sample proportion of on-campus students that play basketball will be between 0.12 and 0.18 in 95% of samples of size 198

Answers

Answer:

c. We are 95% confident that, among the population of students that play basketball recreationally, the proportion who live on campus is between 0.12 and 0.18.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, it is mentioned that there is 95% confidence interval and it is calculated (0.12,0.18)

So the correct interpretation is that they are 95% confident that the students who play basketballs the proportion should lies between 0.12 and 0.12

So, the option C is correct

B. 8
C. 6
D. 4

Answers

Answer:

8 is answer. isoceles triangles must have two equal sides, where the smaller makes the base and the two larger are the legs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the third side of an isosceles triangle is 8 units.

What is an isosceles triangle?

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with (at least) two equal sides. A polygon that consists of two equal sides, two equal angles, three edges, three vertices and the sum of internal angles of a triangle equal to 180°.

For the given situation,

The sides of an isosceles triangle are 4 and 8.

In isosceles triangle, two sides have equal length and the base should be less.

From the measurements given, the base could be 4 units and the third side is same as 8 units.

Hence we can conclude that the measure of the third side of an isosceles triangle is 8 units.
