-3(x + 4) = 2x - 5

-3x + 4 = 2x - 5

4 = 5x - 5

9 = 5x

1.8 = x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x + 4) = 2x - 5

-3x + (-3*4) = 2x - 5

The mistake was in the above equation where -3 should be multiplied with 4.

-3x -12 = 2x -5

5 -12 = 2x+3x

-7 = 5x

x = -7/5 = - 1.4

In the polyhedron above x=5 mm, y=9 mm, and z=4 mm. The volume of the polyhedron is _____ mm3. Round your answer to the tenths place.

Answers

Answer:

180 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The polyhedron is an oblique rectangular prism

Area of the oblique rectangular prism = base area * height

height = z = 4 mm

Base area = L*W

L = y = 9 mm

W = x = 5 mm

Base area = 9*5 = 45 mm²

Area of the oblique rectangular prism = 45*4 = 180 mm³

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

He eats 1/6 or 1/5 of the original cake.

All  you need to do to get the answer is multiply the denominators.

1/5 * 1/6 = 1/30

If there was something in the numerators. you would multiply them too.

So suppose the two fractions were 3/5 and 2/7

The answer would be 3 * 2 / 5 * 7 = 6 / 35

General rule

When multiplying two fractions, multiply numerator * numerator / (denominator * denominator).

A fashion designer wants to know how many new dresses women buy each year. A sample of 208 women was taken to study their purchasing habits. Construct the 85% confidence interval for the mean number of dresses purchased each year if the sample mean was found to be 6.2. Assume that the population standard deviation is 1.1.

Answers

Answer:

The 85% confidence interval for the mean number of dresses purchased each year is (6.1, 6.3).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.85}{2} = 0.075[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.075 = 0.925[/tex], so Z = 1.44.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 1.44\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{208}} = 0.1[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 6.2 - 0.1 = 6.1

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 6.2 + 0.1 = 6.3

The 85% confidence interval for the mean number of dresses purchased each year is (6.1, 6.3).

The length of a rectangular garden is 8m greater than twice the width the area of the garden is 280m^2 what is the width of the garden

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The length of the garden 8m greater than 2 times the width.

Area of the garden is 280 m²

Let us consider the length as x and width as y.

Sp, we can day length as :-

x = 8 + 2y ---(1)

Now, we know that:-

Area of Rectangle = Length × Breadth

280 = x * y

We can replace the value of x now,

280 = y × ( 8 + 2y)

280 = 8y + 2y²

2y² + 8y - 280 = 0

y² + 4y - 140 = 0

Factorise it.

(y -10)(y + 14)

Cancelling -ve value, we get the width as 10 metres.

Hope it helps :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = w

Length = 2w + 8

Area of rectangular garden = 280 square meter

length * width = 280

(2w + 8 ) *w = 280

2w * w + 8*w = 280

2w² + 8w = 280

2w² + 8w - 280 = 0

Divide the whole equation by 2

w² + 4w - 140 = 0      

w² + 14w - 10w - 14 *10 = 0

w(w + 14) - 10(w + 14) = 0

(w + 14)(w - 10)= 0

w - 10 = 0       {Ignore w + 14, as measurements will not be -ve}

w = 10 m

l = 2*10 +8

= 20 +8

l  = 28 m

Vertices A (-1,1) and Vertices B (-4,1) of Square ABCD are shown below. What is the perimeter?

Hint: find the Vertices C and D first, then find the perimeter. A square is the same length all around!

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from (-4,1)to (-1,1) =|-4|-|-1|=3

Side of square =3

Since each side of square is equal.

3x4=12

If vertices A (-1,1) and vertices B (-4,1) of Square ABCD then  perimeter of the square ABCD is 12 units.

What is Distance?

The length along a line or line segment between two points on the line or line segment.

The distance between A and B is 3 units, so the distance between B and C must also be 3 units since the square has equal sides.

The coordinates of C are (-4, -2) since it is directly below B.

The distance between C and D is 5 units since it is a horizontal line between the x-coordinates of C and D.

The coordinates of D are (-1, -2) since it is directly to the right of C.

Now we have the coordinates of all four vertices

A (-1,1), B (-4,1), C (-4,-2), and D (-1,-2).

To find the perimeter, we add up the lengths of all four sides:

AB = BC = CD = AD

= √[(xB - xA)² + (yB - yA)²]

= √[(-4 - (-1))² + (1 - 1)²]

= 3

So the perimeter is P = AB + BC + CD + AD

= 3 + 3 + 5 + 3

= 14

Therefore, the perimeter of the square ABCD is 12 units.
