Trina examined the equation below and said that the equation has exactly one solution. Negative 8 (x minus 4) + 2 x = negative 4

(x minus 8) minus 2 x Which explains whether Trina is correct? A. Trina is correct because the two sides of the equation are equivalent. B. Trina is correct because the two sides of the equation are not equivalent. C. Trina is not correct because the two sides of the equation are equivalent. D. Trina is not correct because the two sides of the equation are not equivalent.

Answer

The answer is C. Trina is not correct because the two sides of the equation are equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  solve for x

-8(x - 4) + 2x = -4(x - 8) -2x

-8x + 32 + 2x = -4x + 32 -2x

-6x + 32 = - 6x + 32

0 = 0

This equation has infinite solutions, any rational number fits as solution for x in this equation. And as we can see both sides of it are equivalent.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. Trina is not correct because the two sides of the equation are equivalent.

Which equation is the inverse of y = 2x2 – 8?​
natita [175]

The inverse of the function is y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Explanation:

To find the inverse of the equation y=2x^{2} -8, we need to interchange the variables x and y for the variables y and x.

Thus, the equation becomes

x=2y^{2} -8

Now, we shall find the value of y.

Now, adding 8 to both sides of the equation, we have,

x+8=2y^{2}

Interchanging the sides,

2y^{2} =x+8

Dividing by 2 on both sides,

y^{2} =\frac{x+8}{2}

Taking square root on both sides,

y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Thus, the inverse of the function is y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Adult male heights have a normal probability distribution with a mean of 70 inches and a standard deviation of 4 inches. What is
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The probability that the man is greater than 74 inches is 0.1587

Step-by-step explanation:

The required probability is found by evaluating the area under the corresponding distribution curve for the corresponding values

The standard normal variate factor (Z) is given by

Z=\frac{x-\bar {X}}{\sigma }

where

\bar{x} is mean of the data

\sigma is the standard deviation of the data

Thus corresponding to x = 74 the Z factor equals

Z=\frac{74-70}{4}=1

Using the standard normal distribution table corresponding to mean of 70 and deviation of 4 the area under the curve corresponding to Z = 1 equals

0.1587
