Answer: one solution x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

this problem is very simple, we need to figure out out what number(x) when multiplied by 2, and then you minus 3 (2x-3)

we need to then multiply this number by 5 to get 15, so 5x3 is what we need to find, so then we need to have the number 6 as 2x, or 3 as x.

so we end up with equation 5(2*3-3) or, 5(6-3), which equals 5*3= 15.

The probability that all three murders were committed with a gun is: 0.252.

The probability that one murder was committed with a gun is:

P(Gun) = (6368 + 364 + 200 + 3326)/13927 = 0.632

Therefore, the probability that all three murders were committed with a gun is:

P(3 Guns) = P(Gun) * P(Gun) * P(Gun) = [tex]0.632^3[/tex] = 0.252

The probability that a murder was committed with a handgun given that a gun was used is:

P(Handgun | Gun) = P(Handgun and Gun) / P(Gun)

We need to find P(Handgun and Gun). From the table, we see that 6368 murders were committed with a handgun and 6368 + 364 + 200 = 6932 murders were committed with a gun. Therefore:

P(Handgun and Gun) = 6368/13927

And:

P(Handgun | Gun) = (6368/13927) / (6368 + 364 + 200 + 3326)/13927 = 0.542

The probability that two murders involved a gun and two involved a cutting instrument is:

P(2 Guns and 2 Cutting instruments) = (C(4,2) * C(6932,2) * C(1476,2)) / C(13927,4)

Where C(n,r) is the number of combinations of n things taken r at a time.

Thus, calculating this gives: P(2 Guns and 2 Cutting instruments) = 0.150

The rectangular distribution f(x) = 1/(b-a) for a ≤ x ≤ b is a valid probability density function.

In mathematics and statistics, a distribution refers to the pattern of values or frequencies of a variable within a set of data. It describes the spread and behavior of data and can be represented by graphs, tables, or mathematical functions.

The rectangular distribution is a continuous probability distribution where the probability density function (PDF) is constant over a certain interval and zero elsewhere. In this case, we have a rectangular distribution with parameters a and b, where a is the lower bound of the interval and b is the upper bound of the interval.

The probability density function (PDF) of this rectangular distribution is given by:

f(x) = 1/(b-a) for a ≤ x ≤ b

and f(x) = 0 elsewhere.

To verify that this function is a valid probability density function, we need to check two conditions:

The first condition is satisfied because f(x) is always positive on the interval [a, b]. The second condition is satisfied because the area under the curve of f(x) from a to b is equal to:

[tex]\int\limits^a_b f(x) dx = \int\limits^a_b (1/(b-a)) dx = [x/(b-a)]_b^a= (b-a)/(b-a) = 1[/tex]

The text is asking how to solve the equation x² - 14x + 9 = 0 using the factoring method. Factoring is a method of finding the roots of a quadratic equation by expressing it as a product of two linear factors. The roots of a quadratic equation are the values of x that make the equation equal to zero. In this case, we are trying to find the values of x that satisfy the equation x² - 14x + 9 = 0.

All the points less than -5 will be marked on the number line.

To represent the values of x where x ≤ -2 and x < -5 on a number line, we start by marking a point at -2 and shading everything to the left of it since x is less than or equal to -2. Next, we add another shading to the left of -5 since x is also less than -5. We then mark an open circle at -5 since x is not equal to -5.

Our number line would look like this as image attached below.

The shaded region to the left of -5 represents all values of x that are less than -5. The shaded region between -5 and -2 represents all values of x that are between -5 and -2, including -5 and -2. The open circle at -5 indicates that x cannot equal -5, but can be any other value less than -5.

Answer:

$2,738.89/per month

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a loan shark.  15% is robbery.

The Add on Method is an alternative method of paying interest after it is added onto the principal at maturity. In this method, the interest on the loan is calculated annually and multiplied by the number of years left for repayment.

Calculate the annual interest: Multiply the interest rate by the amount you originally borrowed: 15% x $68,000 = $10,200.

Calculate the add-on interest amount: Multiply the annual interest amount by the number of years in the loan: $10,200 x 3 years = $30,600.

so total she'll have to pay over 3 years = 98600

98600/36 months = 2738.89/per month

When be graph the functions given, we find that option A is correct.

What is meant by to graph a function?

To graph a function, you have to select x-values and plug them into the equation. Once you plug those values into the equation, you will get a y-value. Your x-values and your y-values make up your coordinates for a single point. Keep plugging in x-values to get coordinates to plot more points on the graph, and then you will see your graphed function once the dots are connected.

Using the graph,

For x < = -2, y = 5.

For -2 < x < 1, the function is a polynomial.

We have two options, either y = x² - 5 or y = x² + 5

The polynomial must have the point (0,-5) on it.

For y = x² - 5 , when x = 0, y = -5.

Hence, it is the correct option.

For x >= 1,

Using graph, we see that when y = 0, x lies between 3 and 4.

For equation, y = 2⁽ˣ⁻²) - 2 , when y = 0, x = 3, so it is not correct.

For equation, y = 2⁽ˣ⁻²) - 3 , when y = 0, x = 3.584, hence it is correct.

Remember that for a quadratic equation whose vertex is at (h, k) and the leading coefficient is a, we can write it in the vertex form as:

y = a*(x - h)² + k

Here we have:

f(x) = (3x-9)(x+1)

We can rewrite that as:

f(x) = (3x - 3*3)(x+1)

f(x) = 3(x - 3)*(x + 1)

Thus the leading coefficient is 3.

The x-value of the vertex is the midpoint the two x-intercepts x = 3 and x = -1, then:

h = (3 - 1)/2

h = 2/2

h = 1

And to get the y-value, we need to evaluate in x = 1.

According to the concept of compound interest, the effective annual yield on your investment of $1800 at a 6.3% interest rate compounded daily is 6.49%.

To find the effective annual yield, we need to use the formula for compound interest:

A = P(1 + r/n)ⁿˣ

Where A is the amount of money at the end of the investment period, P is the principal amount invested, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year, and t is the number of years.

In this case, we know that the principal amount P is $1800, the annual interest rate r is 6.3%, and the interest is compounded daily, which means that n is 365 (the number of days in a year). We need to find the effective annual yield, which is the total amount of interest earned in one year.

To calculate the effective annual yield, we can use the following formula:

Effective Annual Yield = (1 + r/n)ⁿ - 1

Plugging in the values, we get:

Effective Annual Yield = (1 + 0.063/365)³⁶⁵ - 1

a) The function that represents the volume of the trough in terms of x is  V(x) = 88x - 8x².

b) x = 5.5 inches.

c) The maximum volume is 0 cubic inches.

A function is a mathematical concept that describes a relationship between two sets of values, typically represented as variables. A function maps each element of the first set, called the domain, to a unique element of the second set, called the range. In other words, a function assigns a single output value to each input value.

For example, consider the function f(x) = x². The domain of this function is all real numbers, and the range is all non-negative real numbers. For each value of x, the function f(x) returns the square of that value.

(a) Let x be the distance in inches that the homeowner makes the fold along the two long sides of the rectangular piece of aluminum. Then, the height of the resulting trough will be x inches, and the length of the trough will be 22 - 2x inches (since the fold reduces the length by 2x inches). The width of the trough will still be 4 inches.

The volume of the trough can be found by multiplying its length, width, and height:

V(x) = (22 - 2x) * 4 * x

V(x) = 88x - 8x²

So, the function that represents the volume of the trough in terms of x is V(x) = 88x - 8x².

(b) To find the value of x that maximizes the volume of water that can be carried by the gutter, we need to find the maximum point of the function V(x). We can do this by taking the derivative of V(x) with respect to x, setting it equal to zero, and solving for x:

V'(x) = 88 - 16x

88 - 16x = 0

16x = 88

x = 5.5

Therefore, the value of x that maximizes the volume of water that can be carried by the gutter is x = 5.5 inches.

(c) To find the maximum volume, we substitute x = 5.5 into the function V(x):

V(5.5) = 88(5.5) - 8(5.5)^2

V(5.5) = 242 - 242

V(5.5) = 0

Therefore, the maximum volume of water that can be carried by the gutter is 0 cubic inches.

Complete question is:

Sasha buys 5 boxes crackers for 12.25, if each box cost the same amount, then how much does 1 box of the crackers cost?

Answer:

Based on the patient's chart, the percentage of their body burned is:

(0 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 0) / 11 = 7 / 11 = 0.64

Using the Parkland formula, we can calculate the fluid intake needed in the first 24 hours as:

4 mL x weight in kg x % body burned = 4 x 97 x 0.64 = 248.32 mL

Since the patient has already been in treatment for 8 hours, we need to calculate the fluid intake needed for the remaining 16 hours:

248.32 mL / 24 hours x 16 hours = 132.22 mL

Therefore, the patient should receive approximately 132.22 mL of fluid per hour in the next 16 hours of their care. Rounded to two decimal places, this is 132.22 mL per hour.
