The sum of Alyssa's age and her sister's age is 48 years. Alyssa's age is 6 years less than twice her sister's age. What is Alyssa's age, and what is her sister's age?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Alyssa's Sister = 18, Alyssa = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

48 = 2x-6 + x

54 = 2x + x

54 = 3x

18 = x

2(18) - 6

36 - 6

30

48 = 2(18) - 6 + 18

48 = 36 - 6 + 18

48 = 30 + 18

48 = 48

What is the expected value?

Answers

Answer:

2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of a probability is given by the formula:

E(x) = Σxp(x)

Therefore from the table showing the winnings of a game, the expected value of the probability distribution is:

E(x) = Σxp(x) = (0 * 0.5) + (2 * 0.2) + (4 * 0.15) + (6 * 0.1) + (10 * 0.05)

E(x) = 0 + 0.4 + 0.6 + 0.6 + 0.5 = 2.1

Hence we can conclude that the expected value of the winnings of the game is 2.1.

Answers

Answer:

y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180

A+B+C = 180

ABC = 60

We know 2x-4 = 60

2x -4+4 = 60+4

2x = 64

x = 64/2 = 32

A = 3x = 3(32) = 962x-4 = 60

B = 60

Using the first equation

96+ 60 +y = 180

156 +y =180

y = 180-156

y = 24

Out of the 14641 times Voldemort has brushed his teeth, only 5/11 of the time did he floss immediately beforehand. How many times total has Voldemort NOT flossed right before brushing his teeth?

Answers

In this question, we want to find a fraction of a value, which is found multiplying the fraction by the value.

Information:

Voldemort has brushed his teeth 14641 times.

5/11 of the time, he has flossed immediately beforehand.

[tex]1 - \frac{5}{11} = \frac{6}{11}[/tex] of the time, he has NOT flossed immediately beforehand.

How many times total has Voldemort NOT flossed right before brushing his teeth?

6/11 out of 14641, so:

6*14641/11 = 7986.

Thus, Voldemort has NOT flossed right before brushing his teeth 7986 times.

For another example with a fraction of a value, you can check https://brainly.com/question/5501130

Lord Voldemort did not floss his teeth 7986 times.

According to this question, we know the following two facts:

1) Lord Voldemort has brushed his teeth 14641 times.

2) He flossed his teeth beforehand only [tex]\frac{5}{11}[/tex] of the time.

There, he did not floss his teeth [tex]\frac{6}{11}[/tex] of the time and the total number of time that he did not floss is obtained by multiplicating the total number of times that he brushed his teeth and the rational number deducted at the beginning of the paragraph. That is to say:

[tex]x = \left(\frac{6}{11} \right)\cdot (14641)[/tex]

[tex]x = 7986[/tex]

Lord Voldemort did not floss his teeth 7986 times.

The solution to the algebraic equation is x = 1. The last option is correct.

How do we solve a linear algebraic equation?

The solution to a linear algebraic equation can be achieved by finding the like terms and equating them to the constant variable.

From the given information:

8 - 2x = -8x + 14

Collecting the like terms, we have:

-2x + 8x = 14 - 8

6x = 6

Divide both sides by 6, we have:

x = 240

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the leg rule to find the value of x.

Leg rule is given as:

Hypotenuse/leg 1 = leg 1/part 1

Hypotenuse = 400

Leg 1 = x

Part 1 = 144

Plug in the known values into the formula

400/x = x/144

Cross multiply

x*x = 144*400

x² = 57,600

Take the square root of both sides

√x² = √57,600

x = 240

Answers

Part (a)

Consecutive odd integers are integers that odd and they follow one right after another. If x is odd, then x+2 is the next odd integer

For example, if x = 7, then x+2 = 9 is right after.

Answer:  x+2

========================================================

Part (b)

The consecutive odd integers we're dealing with are x and x+2.

Their squares are x^2 and (x+2)^2, and these squares add to 394.

Answer: x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 394

========================================================

Part (c)

We'll solve the equation we just set up.

x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 394

x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 394

2x^2+4x+4-394 = 0

2x^2+4x-390 = 0

2(x^2 + 2x - 195) = 0

x^2 + 2x - 195 = 0

You could factor this, but the quadratic formula avoids trial and error.

Use a = 1, b = 2, c = -195 in the quadratic formula.

[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(2)\pm\sqrt{(2)^2-4(1)(-195)}}{2(1)}\\\\x = \frac{-2\pm\sqrt{784}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-2\pm28}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-2+28}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-2-28}{2}\\\\x = \frac{26}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-30}{2}\\\\x = 13 \ \text{ or } \ x = -15\\\\[/tex]

If x = 13, then x+2 = 13+2 = 15

Then note how x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 13^2 + 15^2 = 169 + 225 = 394

Or we could have x = -15 which leads to x+2 = -15+2 = -13

So, x^2 + (x+2)^2 = (-15)^2 + (-13)^2 = 225 + 169 = 394

We get the same thing either way.
