Solve the equation for x

Answers

Answer 1

Hi there!  

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:  

x = -4

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Here’s why:  

We will use inverse operations to solve for 'x'.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x':}}\\\\2(x-7)=10x+18\\------------\\\rightarrow 2x-14 = 10x + 18\\\\\rightarrow 2x - 14 + 14 = 10x + 18 + 14\\\\\rightarrow 2x = 10x + 32\\\\\rightarrow 2x-10x=10x-10x+32\\\\\rightarrow-8x=32\\\\\rightarrow\frac{-8x=32}{-8}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x=-4}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.  

Answer 2
2(x - 7) = 10x + 18
Remove the parentheses

2x - 14 = 10x + 18
Move the terms

2x - 10x = 18 + 14
Collect like terms
Calculate

- 8x=32
Divide both sides

SOLUTION

X = -4

Two angles are supplementary. One angle measures (3x + 2) degrees. The other angle measures twice that amount. What equation could be used to solve for x?

Answers

Answer:

I do not know the equations given but here's my equation and solution:

9x = 174°

x = 19 1/9°

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 2) + 2(3x + 2) = 180°

3x + 2 + 6x + 4 = 180°

9x + 6 = 180°

9x = 174°

x = 19 1/9

A: 4/7

C:5/7
D: 2/7

Answers

Answer:

D: 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event x is how likely the event will occur. It is given as;

P(x) = number of expected outcomes / number of possible outcomes

Given:

Event A = The place is a city.

Therefore,

P(A) is the probability that the event A happens. i.e the probability that a place is a city.

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) is the probability that the event A does not happen. i.e the probability that a place is not a city

Also,

The sum of the probability that an event happens and the probability that the event does not happen is equal to 1. i.e

P(A) + P([tex]A^c[/tex]) = 1

From the table,

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) is found by counting the number of places that does not have a tick on the "is a city" column, then divide the result by the total number of places. i.e

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) = 2 ÷ 7

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) = 2/7

Therefore P([tex]A^c[/tex]) which is the probability that the place is not a city is 2/7

If you are just given the two points it is the same formula. Find the midpoint between the points (4,-5) and (-4,5)

Answers

mid point =((4+(-4))/2,(-5+5)/2)

=(0,0)

The midpoint between the points (4, -5) and (-4, 5) is (0, 0).

To find the midpoint between two points ([tex]x_1, y_1[/tex]) and ([tex]x_2, y_2[/tex]), you can use the midpoint formula:

Midpoint = [tex]((x_1+ x_2)/2, (y_1+ y_2)/2)[/tex]

In this case, the two points are (4, -5) and (-4, 5).

So, the midpoint using the formula:

[tex]x_1[/tex] = 4

[tex]y_1[/tex] = -5

[tex]x_2[/tex]= -4

[tex]y_2[/tex] = 5

Midpoint

= ((4 + (-4)) / 2, (-5 + 5) / 2)

= (0 / 2, 0 / 2)

= (0, 0)

Therefore, the midpoint between the points (4, -5) and (-4, 5) is (0, 0).

A positive real number is 2 more than another. If the sum of the squares of the two numbers is 42, find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the first sentence x (the number) is 2 more than another number (y). So, x+2=y. The sum of the squares of the two numbers is 42, meaning that [tex]\\ (x+2)^{2}[/tex]+[tex]y^{2}[/tex]=42. First, we square root the ENTIRE equation to get rid of the square. If you do one thing to one side, you have to do it to the other. After this, we have x+2+y=[tex]\sqrt{42}[/tex]. Now, we subtract 2 from the other side to isolate the variable. You can isolate either one but normally I go for x. Now we have x+y=[tex]\sqrt{42}[/tex]+2. Now, we want to get y to the other side so we subtract it from the left side and the right side which gives us x=-y+[tex]\sqrt{42}[/tex]+2. now we know what X is equal to. Now we plug in x for [tex]\\ (x+2)^{2}[/tex]+[tex]y^{2}[/tex]=42, which gives us          [tex](-y+\sqrt42}+2+2)^{2}[/tex]+[tex]y^{2}[/tex]=42. Now we only have one variable which is what we want. Next, we square root the entire thing to get rid of the squares, which gives us -y+[tex]\sqrt{42}[/tex]+4+y=[tex]\sqrt{42}[/tex]. I got lost in my work. I must have done something wrong I cant find out. If anyone wants to pick up where I left off go ahead but there's a timer and I have one minute left. I cant finish the problem in a minute.

Mark has 1.5 times more collectible cards than Jacob. If Mark
gives Jacob 11 cards, they will have the same number of
collectible cards. How many cards do they have?

Answers

Answer:

17.5 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

11 x 1.5 = 16.5

16.5 + 11 = 17.5 cards

Answer:

110

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take Jack cards as x

Then Mark cards will be 1.5 * x

Mark gives 11 cards to Jack...the equation is

1.5 * x  - 11 = x + 11

Adding +11 on both sides

1.5*x -11 + 11 = x + 11 + 11

1.5*x = x + 22

Subtracting x on both sides

1.5*x - x = x + 22 - x

.5*x = 22

x = 22 * 1/.5 = 220/5 = 44

Now go back to the initial equation

Mark >> 1.5  * x = 66

Jack  >> 1 * x = 44

Total >> 110.

What is a statistical error?

Answers

Answer:

Statistical error is the difference between the estimated or approximated value and the true value.  

Two Possible Types of Statistical Error

Type I Errors occur when we reject a null hypothesis that is actually true; the probability of this occurring is denoted by alpha (a).

Type II Errors are when we accept a null hypothesis that is actually false; its probability is called beta (b).

Example

You test whether a new drug intervention can alleviate symptoms of an autoimmune disease.

A Type I error happens when you get false positive results: you conclude that the drug intervention improved symptoms when it actually didn’t. These improvements could have arisen from other random factors or measurement errors.

A Type II error happens when you get false negative results: you conclude that the drug intervention didn’t improve symptoms when it actually did. Your study may have missed key indicators of improvements or attributed any improvements to other factors instead.

t divided by 82 = t / 8  

Therefore-  

 

In algebraic expressions, "y" is normally used as the dependent variable and "x" is normally used as the independent variable, instead of other variables. So that is why i used the variable y in the equation.

In circle A below, chord BC and diameter DAE intersect at F. If arc CD = 46° and arc BE = 78°, what is m_BFE? D B А​

Answers

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

In circle A below, chord BC and diameter DAE intersect at F.

The arc CD = 46° and arc BE = 78°.

To find:

The measure of angle BFE.

Solution:

According to intersecting chords theorem, if two chords intersect inside the circle then the angle on the intersection is the average of intercepted arcs.

Using intersecting chords theorem, we get

[tex]m\angle BFE=\dfrac{1}{2}(m(arcCD)+m(arcBE))[/tex]

[tex]m\angle BFE=\dfrac{1}{2}(46^\circ+78^\circ)[/tex]

[tex]m\angle BFE=\dfrac{1}{2}(124^\circ)[/tex]

[tex]m\angle BFE=62^\circ[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of angle BFE is 62°.
