|-4/3x-5|>19
Solve with work please. ;)

Answers

Answer 1

The inequality expression given as |-4/3x - 5| > 19 has a solution of 10.5 < x < -18

How to solve the inequality?

From the question, the inequality is given as

|-4/3x-5|>19

Rewrite properly as

|-4/3x - 5| > 19

Remove the absolute bracket

So, we have the following representation

-19 > -4/3x - 5 > 19

Add 5 to all sides of the inequality

So, we have

-14 > -4/3x > 24

Multiply through by -3/4

So, we have

10.5 < x < -18

Hence, the solution to the expression is 10.5 < x < -18

Answers

Answer:

B = 95°C = 85°

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle C is the opposite angle to that of 85 degrees, therefore congruent, we subtract 85 x 2 ° from the sum of the angles (360 °, is a round angle) and find the sum of the other two angles, always opposite and increasing, divide by two and we have the value of the angle B

C = 85°

B = [360 - (85 * 2)] : 2

B = (360 - 170) : 2

B = 190 : 2

B = 95°

assume that the traffic to the web site of smiley’s people, inc., which sells customized t-shirts, follows a normal distribution, with a mean of 4.56 million visitors per day and a standard deviation of 720,000 visitors per day. (a) what is the probability that the web site has fewer than 5 million visitors in a single day? if needed, round your answer to four decimal digits

Answers

The probability that the web site has fewer than 5 million visitors in a single day is 0.7293.

For a normally distributed set of data, given the mean and standard deviation, the probability can be determined by solving the z-score and using the z-table.

First, solve for the z-score using the formula below.

z-score = (x – μ) / σ

where x = individual data value = 5 million

μ = mean = 4.56 million

σ = standard deviation = 720,000

z-score = (5 million - 4.56 million) / 720,000

z-score = 440,000 / 720,000

z-score = 0.6111

Find the probability that corresponds to the z-score in the z-table. (see attached images)

z-score =  0.6111

Using interpolation of values,

probability = 0.7293

Automated manufacturing operations are quite precise but still vary, often with distribution that are close to Normal. The width in inches of slots cut by a milling machine follows approximately the N(0.97,0.001)
N(0.97,0.001) distribution. The specifications allow slot widths between 0.9698
0.9698 and 0.9702
What proportion of slots meet these specifications?

Answers

The proportion of slots who meet these specifications is 15.86%.

We are given that the width in inches of slots cut by a milling machine follows approximately the N(0.97,0.001) distribution.

Also, the specifications allow slot widths between 0.9698 and 0.9702

Let X = width in inches of slots cut by a milling machine

The z-score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

Z =  (X - μ) /σ  ~ N(0,1)

where, μ = population mean width = 0.97

           σ  = standard deviation = 0.001

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

Now, Probability that the specifications allow slot widths between 0.9698 and 0.9702 is given by = P(0.9698 < X < 0.9702)

=  P(0.9698 < X < 0.9702)  = P(X < 0.9702) - P(X  0.9698)

P(X < 0.9702) = P  [(X - μ) /σ < [tex]\frac{0.9702 - 0.97}{0.001}[/tex]] = P (Z < 0.2) =

P(X ≤0.9698) = P [(X - μ) /σ ≤  [tex]\frac{0.9698 - 0.97}{0.001}[/tex] ] = P (Z ≤ -0.2) = 1-  P(Z < 0.2)

                                                                                  = 1 - 5793 = 0.4207

So, in the z table the P(Z  x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.2 in the z table which has an area of 0.5793.

Therefore,  P(0.9698 < X < 0.9702) = 0.5793 - 0.4207 = 0.1586

Hence, the proportion of slots who meet these specifications is 15.86%.

Answers

An irrational number that lies between the two given ones, 0.6333.... and 0.64 is:

√7 - 2.01 =0.63575...

How to find an irrational number between the two given ones?

Remember that an irrational number is a number that can't be written as the quotient between two integers.

Here we want to find two numbers between 0.6333 (where the 3 repeats infinitely) and 0.64

So we cold try to find a number like:

6.3349412490184...

Such that there is no pattern (because if there were a pattern, it would not be an irrational number).

An example of this can be, for example:

√7 = 2.64575...

This is an irrational number.

Now, if we subtract 2.01 from that we will get:

√7 - 2.01 = 2.64575... - 2.01 = 0.63575...

This is an irrational number and lies between the two given ones, then we conclude that √7 - 2.01 =0.63575... is a correct option.

Answers

The side of the triangle is 15 inches.

How to find the perimeter of a triangle and square?

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 17 inches more than the perimeter of a square, and the side of the triangle is 8 inches longer than the side of the square.

Hence,

let

perimeter of the square = x inches

perimeter of an equilateral triangle = x + 17

Let

side of the square = y

side of the triangle = 8 + y

Therefore,

Perimeter of the square

x = y + y + y + y

x = 4y

Perimeter of the triangle

x + 17 = 8 + y + 8 + y + 8 + y

x + 17 = 24 + 3y

x - 3y = 7

Combine the equation,

x = 4y

x - 3y = 7

Therefore,

4y - 3y = 7

y = 7

x = 4(7)

x = 28

Therefore,

side of the triangle = 8 + y = 8 + 7 = 15 inches

Use this table to answer the following questions.If the number of gallons of gas is known, can you find the number of gallons consumed? Explain how this value would be calculated.

Answers

The table of values indicates a proportional relationship between the number of gallons of gas and the number of miles driven, therefore;

The number of miles driven, f(x) can be found from the number of gallons of gas consumed, x, using the equation; f(x) = 31•x

What is a proportional relationship?

A proportional relationship is one in which one variable, y, can be obtained from another variable, x, by multiplying x by a factor.

Please find attached a table showing the number of gallons of gas and the miles driven obtained from a similar question online

Let x represent the number of gallons of gas and let f(x) represent the number of miles driven

The difference between the consecutive terms of the first three values in the number of gallons and miles driven are each equal to 2 and 62 respectively

4 - 2 = 2 - 0 = 2

124 - 62 = 62 - 0 = 62

Therefore, given that the first difference is constant, the first three points have a linear relation, which gives;

Slope of the line = 62/2 = 31

Intercept = 0

Therefore;

f(x) = 31•x

Checking the fourth point, gives;

x = 10

f(10) = 31 × 10 = 310

The relationship between the miles driven, f(x), and the number of gallons is therefore a proportional relationship, which is presented as follows;

f(x) = 31•x

Therefore, if the number of gallons of gas, x, is known, the number of miles driven, f(x), can be found using the equation;

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of proportionality is $1.80

An equation that relates the total cost, y, and the number of lemons, x, is

y = 1.80x

where,

y =Total cost

x = number of lemon

When x = 4

y = 1.80x

y = 1.80(4)

y = 7.2

y = $7.2

When y = $4.20

y = 1.80x

4.20 = 1.80x

x = 4.20 / 1.80

x = 2 1/3

x = 2 1/3

When y = $9.00

y = 1.80x

9.00 = 1.80x

x = 9.00 / 1.80

x = 5

x = 5

When x = 18

How to find how long would it take Stacy and Diego to paint the doghouse while working alone

given data

Diego and Stacy can paint a doghouse in 5 hours

Diego works twice as fast as Stacy

Let x be the number of hours it would take Diego to paint the doghouse and y be the number

Putting the given information mathematically

Diego and Stacy can paint a doghouse in 5 hours

x + y = 5hours

Diego works twice as fast as Stacy

x = 2y

x + y = 5hours

Since x = 2y

2y + y = 5

3y = 5

y = 5/3

y = 1 1/3

from x = 2y

x = 2 * 5/3

x = 10/3

x = 3 1/3

1/3 hours is a fraction of hours. we convert it to minutes by multiplying by 60

= 1/3 * 60

= 20 minutes

Therefore it will take Diego 3 hours 20 minutes and Stacy 1 hour 20 minutes for them to complete a 5 hours work

If Diego works alone

Diego alone = 5 hours + Stacy's hours * 1/2

since Diego is twice faster than Stacy then Stacy's time will be halved

Diego alone = 5 hours + 80 minutes * 1/2

Diego alone = 5 hours + 40 minutes

Diego alone = 5 hours 40 minutes

if Stacy works alone

Stacy alone =  5 hours + Diego's hours * 2

Stacy alone =  5 hours + 3 hours 20 minutes * 2

Stacy alone =  5 hours + 6 hours 40 minutes

Stacy alone = 11 hours 40 minutes

In my opinion, Report 1 is more persuasive than Report 2 due to the fact that the margin of error in Report 1 is narrower than in Report 2.

This is further explained below.

What is the margin of error.?

Generally,  we consider report one and report two

For Report

at 98% confidence interval = $64.35 to $83.59

Therefore, the Margin of error

M.E= $83.59 - $64.35

M.E = $19.24

For Report 2:

95% confidence interval = $58.37 to $71.93

Margin of error

M.E= $71.93 - $58.37

M.E= $13.56

Since Report 1 has a smaller margin of error than Report 2, I find Report 1 to be more convincing.

In conclusion, A report with a lower margin of error, in my opinion, is often more credible than one with a bigger one.

This is because more exact data indicates a report with a reduced margin of error.

To put it another way, information in a report with a lower margin of error is more likely to be correct than information in a report with a higher margin of error.

In this question, a triangle is dilated by a factor of 2 and then rotated clockwise.

We need to select the correct statement about the triangle's image and pre-image.

We know that rotation is a rigid transformation but dilation is not a rigid transformation.

Dilation does not preserve the size of the image.

Also, the image and pre-image are not congruent as the corresponding sides of triangle's image and pre-image are not equal.
