<h3>Point Y is the midpoint of segment XZ. Then value of x is 20</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

<em><u>Point Y is the midpoint of segment XZ</u></em>

XY = 2(3x +1)

YZ = 5x + 22

To find: Value of x

Since, Point Y is the midpoint of segment XZ,

Therefore,

XY = YZ

2(3x + 1) = 5x + 22

6x + 2 = 5x + 22

6x - 5x = 22 - 2

<h3>x = 20</h3>

Thus, value of x is 20

Given the functions f(x) = 7x + 13 and g(x) = x + 2, which of the following functions represents f[g(x)] correctly?
LenKa [72]

Answer:

B. f(g(x)) = 7x + 27

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, f(x) = 7x+13 and g(x) = x+2.

So, the function f(g(x)) is obtained by substituting the function g(x) = x+2 in f(x) = 7x+13,

i.e. f(g(x)) = f(x+2)

i.e. f(g(x)) = 7 × (x+2) + 13

i.e. f(g(x)) = 7x + 14 + 13

i.e. f(g(x)) = 7x + 27

Thus, f(g(x)) = 7x + 27

Hence, option B is correct.

A coin will be flipped repeatedly until the sequence TTH (tail/tail/head) comes up. Successive flips are independent, and the co
padilas [110]

Answer:

P = \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of the value of p minimizes is shown below:-

We will assume the probability of coming heads be p

p(H) = p

p(T) = 1 - P

Now, H and T are only outcomes of flipping a coin

So,

P(TTH) = (1 - P) = (1 - P) (1 - P) P

= (1 + P^2 - 2 P) P

= P^3 - 2P^2 + P

In order to less N,TTH

we need to increase P(TTH)

The equation will be

\frac{d P(TTH)}{dP} = 0

3P^2 - 4P + 1 = 0

(3P - 1) (P - 1) = 0

P = 1 and 1 ÷ 3

For P(TTH) to be maximum

\frac{d^2 P(TTH)}{dP} < 0 for\ P\ critical\\\\\frac{d (3P^2 - 4P - 1)}{dP}

= 6P - 4

and

(6P - 4) is negative which is for

P = \frac{1}{3}

Using a binomial distribution with mean = n*p = 110*0.22 = 24.2 and variance = n*p*(1-p) = 24.2*(1-0.22) = 18.876

Approximating it to a normal distribution,

P(x\geq 26)\\\\=P(Z\geq \frac{26-24.2}{\sqrt{18.876} } )\\\\=P(Z\geq 0.41)\\\\=0.3481

What is the y-intercept of the function f(x) = –f(x) equals negative StartFraction 2 Over 9 EndFraction x plus StartFraction 1 O
lora16 [44]

Answer: Third option

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.

Given the function f(x):

f(x)=-\frac{2}{9}x+\frac{1}{3}

Since f(x)=y, you can rewrite it:

y=-\frac{2}{9}x+\frac{1}{3}

You can identify that:

m=-\frac{2}{9}\\\\b=\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, you can determine that the y-intercept of the given function is:

b=\frac{1}{3}

Observe that this matches with the third option.
