Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute </u>

-2(x - 3) + 4x = -(-x + 1)

<em>-2x + 6 + 4x = x - 1</em>

<em />

<u>Step 2:  Combine like terms</u>

-2x + 6 + 4x = x - 1

<em>2x + 6 = x - 1</em>

<em />

<u>Step 3:  Subtract x from both sides</u>

2x + 6 - x = x - 1 - x

<em>x + 6 = -1</em>

<em />

<u>Step 4:  Subtract 6 from both sides</u>

x + 6 - 6 = -1 - 6

<em>x = -7</em>

<em />

Answer:  x = -7

A web server hosting company advertises 99.999 percent guaranteed network uptime. (a) how many independent network servers would
miv72 [106K]
The solution for this problem would be:
Given that there is 99.999%.

Let denote n as the network servers and p as the reliability of each server.
So the probability that the network uptime = 1 - (1 - p)^n

Therefore, (1-p) ^n = 0.00001


a. x= log(1-.99999)÷log(1-.97)= 3.2833 is the answer


1-(1-.97)^3= 0.99999 + 0.0001 = 1


b. x = log(1-.99999)÷log(1-.88) = 5.43 is the answer


1-(1-.88)^3= 0.99 + 0.0001 = approx 1

Two drivers, Alison and Kevin, are participating in a drag race. Beginning from a standing start, they each proceed with a const
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Alison wins against Kevin by 0.93 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Alison covers the last 1/4 of the distance in 3 seconds, at a constant acceleration a_a, we have the following equation of motion

s/4 = a_at_a^2/2

where s (m) is the total distance, ta = 3 s is the time

s = 4a_a3^2/2 = 18a_a

a_a = s/18

Similarly, Kevin overs the last 1/3 of the distance in 4 seconds, at a constant acceleration a_k, we have the following equation of motion:

s/3 = a_kt_k^2/2

tk = 4 s is the time

s = 3a_k4^2/2 = 24a_k

a_k = s/24

Since a_a = s/18 we can conclude that a_a > a_k, so Alison would win.

The time it takes for Alison to cover the entire track

s = a_aT_a^2/2

T_a^2 = 2s/a_a = 2s/(s/18) = 36

T_a = \sqrt{36} = 6 s

The time it takes for Kevin to cover the entire track

s = a_kT_k^2/2

T_k^2 = 2s/a_k = 2s/(s/24) = 48

T_a = \sqrt{48} = 6.93 s

So Alison wins against Kevin by 6.93 - 6 = 0.93 s

Jada solved the equation Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction for x using the step
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Jada should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 108.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Find the complete question in the comment section.

Given the equation -4/9 = x/108, in order to determine Jada's error, we need to solve in our own way as shown:

Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by -9/4 as shown:

-4/9 × -9/4 = x/108 × -9/4

-36/-36 = -9x/432

1 = -9x/432

1 = -x/48

Cross multiplying

48 = -x

x = -48

It can also be solved like this:

Given -4/9 = x/108

Multiply both sides by 108 to have:

-4/9 * 108 = x/108 * 108

-4/9 * 108 = 108x/108

-432/9 = x

x = -48

Jada should have simply follow the second calculation by multiplying both sides of the equation by 108 as shown.
