How Do I Solve For X?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since quadrilateral JKLM and PQRS are similar toe ach other, therefore the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

Thus:

QP/KJ = PS/JM

Substitute

8/5 = x/3

Cross multiply

5*x = 3*8

5x = 24

x = 24/5

x = 4.8

Circle A has radius 10m and m angle CAD=90 degrees
Circle B has radius 12m and m angle CBD=60degrees

Answers

Answer:

Segment CED has greater area

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle A

Area of ΔCAD, right triangle:

A = 1/2*10*10 = 50 m²

Area of the sector CAD:

A = 1/4*π*10² = 78.54 m²

Area of segment CED:

A = 78.54 - 50 = 28.54 m²Circle B

Area of ΔCBD, equilateral triangle:

A = √3/4*12² = 62.36 m²

Area of sector CBD:

A = 1/6*π*12² = 75.40 m²

Area of segment CFD:

A = 75.40 - 62.36 = 13.04 m²

Compare the areas of the segments:

CED = 28.54  > CFD = 13.04

Answer:

for 1 st

area of segment CAD=90/360×π×10²=78.54m²

for second

area of segmentBCD=60/360×π×12²=75.4m²

The wholesale price of an X-BOX-X is $400.00 .It was then marked up 30% and sold online. What is the online price?

Answers

Answer:

$520

Step-by-step explanation:

1% of x is x times 0.01.

that means 10%of x is x times 0.1.

400 times 0.1 is 40.

40 is 10% of 400.

it was marked up by 30% so we need to times by 3.

40 times 3 is 120.

it was marked up so its addition.

400+120=520

Milo visited an amusement park for 3 hours. He rodes rides for 50 minutes, played carnival games for 40 minutes, and ate food for 30 minutes. He spent the rest of the time waiting in lines. How much times did Milo spend waiting in lines?

red die and a blue die are rolled. You win or lose money depending on the sum of the values of the two dice. If the sum is 5 or 9, you win $6. If the sum is 6, 7, or 12, you win $2. If the sum is any other value (2, 3, 4, 8, 10, or 11), you lose $4. Let X be a random variable that corresponds to your net winnings in dollars. What is the expected value of X

Answers

Answer:

The expected value of X is $0.2222.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

For each dice, there are 6 possible outcomes(values from 1 to 6). So for 2 dices, there are [tex]6^2 = 36[/tex] possible outcomes.

Desired outcomes:

Sum 5: (1,4), (2,3), (3,2), (4,1).

Sum 6: (1,5),(2,4),(3,3),(4,2),(5,1)

Sum 7: (1,6), (2,5), (3,4), (4,3), (5,2), (6,1)

Sum of 9: (3,6), (4,5), (5,4), (6,3);

Sum of 12: (6,6)

Probabilities:

4 + 4 = 8 outcomes with a sum of 5 or 9.

8/36 = 2/9 probability of a sum of 5 or 9.

12 outcomes with a sum of 6, 7 or 12.

12/36 = 1/3 probability of the sum being 6, 7 or 12.

36 - 20 = 16 outcomes in which the sum is any other value. So

16/36 = 4/9 probability of a sum of any other value.

What is the expected value of X?

2/9 probability of earning $6.

1/3 = 3/9 probability of earning $2.

4/9 probability of losing $4.

Multiplying each outcome by its probability, we find the expected value. So

[tex]E = \frac{2}{9}*6 + \frac{3}{9}*2 - \frac{4}{9}*4 = \frac{12 + 6 - 16}{9} = \frac{2}{9} = 0.2222[/tex]

The expected value of X is $0.2222.

The population of Linton is 12 times as great
as the population of Ellmore.
The combined
population of both towns
is 9,646 people. What
the population of Linton

Answers

Answer:

8904 People

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by the equation L = 12E, where L represents the population of Linton and E represents the population of Ellmore. We then set L + E = 9646, but since L = 12E, we then get 12E + E = 9636, or 13E = 9646. Therefore, E = 742. L = 12E, so L = 8904.

Answers

Answer: x = 3 - sqrt 17 / 2 , x = 3 + sqrt 17 / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 = 4 + 6x

divide both sides by 2

x^2 = 2 + 3x

move expression to the left

x^2 - 2 - 3x = 0

reorder the terms

x^2 - 3x - 2 = 0

use the quadratic formula

x = - (-3) +- sqrt (-3)^2 - 4 x (-2) / 2 x 1

calculate

x = 3 +- sqrt 17 / 2

answer

x = 3 - sqrt 17 / 2 , x = 3 + sqrt 17 / 2

According to the graph on your graphing tool, what is true about f(x)= x^4-4x^2+x/-2x^4+18x^2

Answers

Answer:

I can't see the options, so i will find all the asymptotes.

We have the function:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^4 - 4*x^2 + x}{-2*x^4 + 18*x^2}[/tex]

First, we can graph this using a graphing tool, the graph can be seen below.

In the graph, we can see that when we approach x = 0 from the left, f(x) goes to negative infinity, while if we approach x = 0 from the right, f(x) goes to infinity.

This can be written as:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 0_-} f(x) = - \infty \\[/tex]

and:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 0_+} f(x) = + \infty \\[/tex]

A similar thing can be seen at x = 3, when we approach from the left f(x) goes to infinity, while if we approach from the left, f(x) goes to negative infinity.

Then:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 3_-} f(x) = \infty \\\\\lim_{x \to 3_+} f(x) = - \infty \\[/tex]

For x = -3 we can see that when we approach from the left, f(x) goes to negative infinity, while if we approach from the right, f(x) goes to infinity.

Then:

[tex]\lim_{x \to -3_-} f(x) = - \infty \\\\\lim_{x \to -3_+} f(x) = + \infty \\[/tex]

We also can see that as x goes to negative infinity or positive infinity, f(x) tends to -0.5

Then:

[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} f(x) = -0.5 \\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x) = -0.5[/tex]

So you need to check the options that match with some of the given tendencies.
