A whole number is 6 more than 2 times another number. The sum of the two numbers is less than 50. This can be written in an inequality as x + 2x + 6 < 50, where x represents the smaller number.

Answers

Answer 1

The smaller number, x from the inequality x + 2x + 6 < 50 is x < 14.67

Inequality

x + 2x + 6 < 50

3x + 6 < 50

collect like terms

3x < 50 - 6

3x < 44

divide both sides by 3

x < 44/3

x < 14.6666666666666

Approximately,

x < 14.67

Therefore, the smaller number, x is approximately x < 14.67

Use the recursive formula to find the first five terms in the arithmetic sequence.

Answers

Answer:

3, 1, - 1, - 3, - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

using the recursive formula and f(1) = 3 , then

f(2) = f(1) - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1

f(3) = f(2) - 2 = 1 - 2 = - 1

f(4) = f(3) - 2 = - 1 - 2 = - 3

f(5) = f(4) - 2 = - 3 - 2 = - 5

first 5 terms are 3, 1, - 1, - 3, - 5

An industrial machine produces widgets, but it has a 0.07 defective rate. what is the probability that the machine produces fewer than 5 defective widgets in a production run of 100 items?

Answers

The probability that the machine produces fewer than 5 defective widgets in a production run of 100 items is 0.10

What is the probability?

A probability refers to the ratio of favorable events to the n number of total events.

Also, it means the chance that a particular event (s) will occur expressed on a linear scale from 0 to 1 which can also be expressed as a percentage between 0 and 100%.

Given data

An industrial machine produces 5 widgets.

It has a 0.07 defective rate.

Defective rate fewer than 5

Total Probability = P of 4 defective + P for 3 defective + P for 2 defective + P for  1 defective.

Total Probability = 4/100 + 3/99 + 2/98 + 1/97

Total Probability ≈ 0.10

Therefore, the required probability for fewer than 5 defective rate is 0.10

The value of the function f(x) = ( 8x² - 2x + 4 ) / 2 when x = -3/5 is 101/25.

Hence, f(-3/5) = 101/25.

What is the value of the function at f(-3/5) ?

Given the function; f(x) = ( 8x² - 2x + 4 ) / 2

To determine the value of the function when x = -3/5, we simply replace the variable x with -3/5 in the function.

f(x) = ( 8x² - 2x + 4 ) / 2

f(-3/5) = ( 8(-3/5)² - 2(-3/5) + 4 ) / 2

Divide each term by 2

f(-3/5) = 4(-3/5)² - (-3/5) + 2

f(-3/5) = 4(9/25) - (-3/5) + 2

f(-3/5) = 36/25 +3/5 + 2

f(-3/5) = ( 36 + 3×5 + 2×25 ) / 25

f(-3/5) = ( 36 + 15 + 50 ) / 25

f(-3/5) = 101/25

The value of the function f(x) = ( 8x² - 2x + 4 ) / 2 when x = -3/5 is 101/25.

Hence, f(-3/5) = 101/25.

10. There are 355 students at Median Middle School. If there 8% of the students were absent on Tuesday, how many students were absent? How many were present?​

Answers

To solve this question, we simply need to divide the total amount of students by 8% to find out how many students were absent and how many were present.

However, we can't simply multiply it by 8%, so we need to turn that into a decimal.

8% - 0.08

Multiply:

355 x 0.08

= 28.4

Round:

28 kids were absent

Subtract:

355 - 28

= 327

This means that 28 kids were absent, and 327 kids were present.

How to determine the perimeter of a kite OBDE

In geometry, the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the sides of a figure.  Herein we must determine the perimeter of a quadrilateral, the kite OBDE, that is, the sum of the lengths of its four sides:, which can be found both by direct observation or by the use of the Pythagorean theorem.

Please notice that the quadrilateral has an axis of symmetry passing through the points O and D, which implies that OB = OE and BD = DE. The length of sides BD and DE is 6 units and the length of the sides OB and DE are:

OB = DE = 0.5 · √(24² + 10²)

OB = DE = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

If you reflect over the y-axis and then move 2 units to the left(x-2), then ABCD will be 3 units above EHGF. Since you need to move it down 3 units to map ABCD onto EHGF, you will need to do y-3, which is the same as y+-3

Answer is -3
Reason
When you reflect you do a mirror image.
Point D will be at (1, 2 )
Then you already know your new “x” direction is a -2, which moves your point D
To ( -1, 2). Now you want to move D down to match up with F, you will move down (y = -3)
So you flipped over the y axis, you translated over -2 and down -3. The figures will be on top of each other.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x + y = -9.
Fully simplify your answer.

Answers

Considering the definition of perpendicular line, the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+y= -9 is  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].

Linear equation

A linear equation o line can be expressed in the form y = mx + b.

where

x and y are coordinates of a point.m is the slope.b is the ordinate to the origin and represents the coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y axis.

Perpendicular line

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at right angles or 90° angles.

Two nonvertical lines are perpendicular if the slope of one is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other. In other words, if you multiply the slopes of two perpendicular lines, you get –1.

Equation of perpendicular line in this case

In this case, the line is 3x+y=-9. Expressed in the form y = mx + b, you get: y= -9 - 3x or, what is the same, y= -3x -9

If you multiply the slopes of two perpendicular lines, you get –1. In this case, the line has a slope of  -3. So:

(-3)× slope perpendicular line= -1

slope perpendicular line= (-1)÷ (-3)

slope perpendicular line=  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Finally, the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+y= -9 is  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].

What is genetic drift?

Genetic drift is the change in a population's frequency of an existing gene variant brought on by chance. Gene variations may totally vanish due to genetic drift, hence reducing genetic variation. Additionally, it may lead to the considerably greater frequency and even fixation of previously rare alleles.

What causes genetic drift?

Random drift is a result of recurrently small populations, drastic population reductions known as "bottlenecks," and founder events in which a new population is created from a small number of individuals.

What are the odds a randomly selected five-star recruit will not select a university from one of the three best conferences?

The chance that 25% of the five-star recruit will not select a university form one of the three best conferences is explained as follows:

Answers

By using what we know about right triangles, we conclude that the height is 11ft.

How far is the top of the escalator from the ground floor?

We can think of this as a right triangle.

Where the length of the escalator is the hypotenuse

We know that the angle of depression is 42.51°, then the top angle of our right triangle is:

90° - 42.51° = 47.49°

Now, the height of the top of the escalator would be the adjacent cathetus to said angle, then we can use the relation:

cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)

Replacing what we know:

cos(47.49°)  = height/16ft

cos(47.49°) *16ft = height = 10.8ft

Rounding to the nearest foot, we get:

height = 11ft

The question implies that we create a similar grid with a row sum and column sum of 30

Represent the grid as follows:

a    b   c

d    e    f

g   h    j

So, we have the following sum of rows

a + b + c = 30

d + e + f = 30

g + h + j = 30

And, we have the following sum of rows

a + d + g = 30

b + e + h = 30

c + f + j = 30

Using trial by error, we have:

3 + 15+ 12  = 30

17 + 11 + 2 = 30

10 + 4 + 16 = 30

When the columns are added, we have

3 + 17 + 10 = 30
