1 Solve 8x - 9 = 15 for x.

Mathematics

Anna [14]2 years ago

Answer:

x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 9 =15

+9 on both sides

8x = 15 + 9

Add 15 and 9 to get 24

8x = 14

Divide 8 by both sides

x = 3

If you were to plot y versus m using the equation y = (g/k) m yo, how would you calculate the value for k?
Zanzabum

Equation is given as;

y = (g/k) yo

To find the value of “k”, divide both sides of the equation with yo;

y/yo = (g/k)yo/yo

it implies that;

y/yo = (g/k)

Now following steps will obtain the value of “k” as;

ky/yo = g

ky = gyo

<span>k = gy0/y </span>

Bill, George, and Ross, in order, roll a die. The first one to roll an even number wins and the game is ended. What is the proba
hram777 [196]

Answer:0.5714\frac{1}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Bill, George, and Ross, in order, roll a die.

The first one to roll an even number wins and the game is ended.

Since Bill starts the game he can win by throwing even number or lose by throwing odd number

P(win) = 0.5, otherwise, the die will go to George.  For Bill to win, both George and Ross should throw an odd number so that Bill again gets the chance with game non ending.

Thus we have Prob of Bill winning =P of Bill winning in I throw +P of Bill winning in his II chance of throw +....infinitely

To get back the dice once he loses probability

= p both throws odd = 0.5(0.5) = 0.25

Thus Prob for Bill winning

= 0.5+0.25(0.5)^2+0.25(0.5)^3(0.25)+...

This is an infinite geometric series with I term 0.5 and common ratio 0.125<1

Sum = \frac{a}{1-r} =\frac{0.5}{1-0.125} =0.5714

What are the possible numbers of positive real, negative real, and complex zeros of f(x) = −7x4 − 12x3 + 9x2 − 17x + 3?
madreJ [45]
Now, recall Descartes Rule of Signs.  Check the picture below.

the +x part, gives us the positive Real zeros, and it depends on how many times the sign changes from term to term, notice in the picture, it changed 3 times, so the positive real ones are 3, or 3-2, namely 1, so 3 or 1.

the negative real ones, come from using -x as the argument on f(x), and as you can see in the picture, there was only 1 sign change, meaning the negative real zeros are only 1.

since, based on the fundamental theorem of algebra the polynomial has 4 roots at most then,

3 positive real ones, and 1 negative real one, no complex ones

or

1 positive real one, and 1 negative real one, and 2 complex ones

bear in mind that complex always come in pairs, never alone.

Which best describes the transformation that occurs from the graph of f(x) = x2 to g(x) = (x – 2)2 + 3?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A. right 2, up 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

The function f(x) = x^2 is transformed to g(x) =(x- 2)^2+3.

We see that,

The function f(x) is translated 2 units to the right and 3 units upwards to obtain the function g(x).

So, the correct transformation is 'right 2, up 3'.

Hence, option A is correct.
