Hi there!

Simply substitute these values in:-

Any negative numbers squared would result in positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding two fractions with different bases (bottom numbers), we can use this function:

[tex]\frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ad + cb}{bd}[/tex]

So, to apply this to the given question:

[tex]\frac{x+3}{x-6} +\frac{1}{x-2}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(x+3)(x-2)+(1)(x-6)}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]

From the given answers, we see we don't need to simplify the resulting base number, which makes things a lot easier.

Multiply top using: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

= [tex]\frac{[(x*x) + (x*-2)+(3*x)+(3*-2)]+(x-6)}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]

Simplify.

= [tex]\frac{[x^2 -2x+3x-6]+(x-6)}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]

Remove parentheses.

= [tex]\frac{x^2 -2x+3x-6+x-6}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]

A 10​-sided die is rolled. Find the probability of rolling an even number. The set of equally likely outcomes is shown below. ​{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10​}

The probability of rolling an even number on a 10​-sided die is:

Answers

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are ten sides on this die. As stated in your question, there are five even numbers and five odd numbers. If we take the amount of even numbers over the total, you get 5/10, which simplifies to 1/2.

The probability of rolling an even number on a 10 - sided die is 1/2 or 0.5

What is Probability?

The probability that an event will occur is measured by the ratio of favorable examples to the total number of situations possible

The value of probability lies between 0 and 1

Given data ,

Let the data set be S = { 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ​}

So , the number of elements in the data set = 10 elements

Now , in order to get an even number when dolling the dice ,

The set of possible outcomes P = { 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 10 }

The number of elements in the data set P of outcomes = 5 elements

So , the probability of getting an even number from the data set when rolling a 10 sided dice is P ( x ) =
number of elements in the data set P of outcomes / number of elements in the data set

The probability of getting an even number from the data set when rolling a 10 sided dice is P ( x ) = 5 / 10

The probability P ( x ) = 1/2

                                   = 0.5

Hence , The probability of rolling an even number on a 10 - sided die is 1/2 or 0.5

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that 3x +1 & 4x + 5 are all underneath the square root

2 √3x + 1  - √4x + 5 = 3

2 √3x + 1 = 3 + √4x + 5

4 (3x+1) = 9 + 6 √4x + 5 + 4x + 5

12x + 4 = 14 + 6√4x + 5 + 4x

-6 √4x + 5 = 14 + 4x - 12x - 4

-6 √4x + 5 = 10 - 8x

3 √4x + 5 = -5 + 4x  (divided both sides by - 2)

9 (4x +5) = 16x^2 - 40x + 25

36x + 45 = 16x^2 - 40x + 25

36x + 45 - 16x^2 + 40x - 25 = 0

76x + 20 - 16x^2 = 0

-16x^2 + 76x + 20 = 0

4x^2 - 19x -5 = 0  (dividied by -4)

4x^2 + x - 20x -5 = 0

x (4x + 1) -5 (4x +1) = 0

(4x +1) (x-5) = 0

Possible answers:

A certain test preparation course is designed to help students improve their scores on the LSAT exam. A mock exam is given at the beginning and end of the course to determine the effectiveness of the course. The following measurements are the net change in 6 students' scores on the exam after completing the course: 6,16,19,12,15,14.
Using these data, construct a 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course. Assume the population is approximately normal. Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.

Answers

Answer:

The critical value is [tex]T_c = 2.5706[/tex].

The 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (9.04, 18.30).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to find the sample mean and the sample standard deviation:

Sample mean:

[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{6+16+19+12+15+14}{6} = 13.67[/tex]

Sample standard deviation:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(6-13.67)^2+(16-13.67)^2+(19-13.67)^2+(12-13.67)^2+(15-13.67)^2+(14-13.67)^2}{5}} = 4.4121[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 6 - 1 = 5

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 5 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 2.5706, that is, the critical value is [tex]T_c = 2.5706[/tex]

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.5706\frac{4.4121}{\sqrt{6}} = 4.63[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 13.67 - 4.63 = 9.04.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 13.67 + 4.63 = 18.30.

The 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (9.04, 18.30).

A warehouse contains ten printing machines, two of which are defective. A company selects seven of the machines at random, thinking all are in working condition. What is the probability that all seven machines are nondefective?

Answers

Answer:

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that all seven machines are nondefective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The machines are chosen from the sample without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

10 machines means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

2 defective, so 10 - 2 = 8 work correctly, which means that [tex]k = 8[/tex]

Seven are selected, which means that [tex]n = 7[/tex]

What is the probability that all seven machines are nondefective?

This is P(X = 7). So

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = h(7,10,7,8) = \frac{C_{8,7}*C_{2,0}}{C_{10,7}} = 0.0667[/tex]

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that all seven machines are nondefective.

at which value will the graph of y=csc x have a zero

Answers

Answer:

y = csc(x) does not have any zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have:

y = f(x)

a zero of that function would be a value x' such that:

y = f(x') = 0

Here we basically want to solve:

y = csc(x) = 0

First, remember that:

csc(x) = 1/sin(x)

now, the values of sin(x) range from -1 to 1.

So we want to solve:

1/sin(x) = 0

notice that a fraction:

a/b = 0

only if a = 0.

Then is easy to see that for our equation:

1/sin(x) = 0

The numerator is different than zero, then the equation never will be equal to zero.

Then:

y = csc(x) = 1/sin(x)

Does not have a zero.
