For this case, the first thing you should do is observe the solution set.
We have then that the set of solution is given by:
(-inf, -4) U [3, inf)
Therefore, we have:
For (-inf, -4):
x <-4
For [3, inf):
x ≥ 3
Thus, the inequality in the graph is:
x <-4 and x ≥ 3
Answer:
x <-4 and x ≥ 3
<span>-4 + -7 (-2)
= -4 + 14 (a negative multiplies a negative equal positive)
= 10</span>
Answer: The probability that a randomly selected catfish will weigh between 3 and 5.4 pounds is 0.596
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the weights of catfish are assumed to be normally distributed,
we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = weights of catfish.
µ = mean weight
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 3.2 pounds
σ = 0.8 pound
The probability that a randomly selected catfish will weigh between 3 and 5.4 pounds is is expressed as
P(x ≤ 3 ≤ 5.4)
For x = 3
z = (3 - 3.2)/0.8 = - 0.25
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.401
For x = 5.4
z = (5.4 - 3.2)/0.8 = 2.75
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.997
Therefore,.
P(x ≤ 3 ≤ 5.4) = 0.997 - 0.401 = 0.596
Answer:
The number is 6.25
Explanation:
Assume that the number we are looking for is x
First, we will set up the equations as follows:
1- Subtract 1.05 from the number (assume the result is y):
x - 1.05 = y
2- Multiply the difference by 0.8 (assume the product is z):
0.8(y) = z
3- add 2.84 to the product (assume the result is w):
z + 2.84 = w
4- divide the sum by 0.01, the quotient is 700:
w / 0.01 = 700
Now, we will work backwards as follows:
4) w / 0.01 = 700
w = 0.01 * 700
w = 7
3) z + 2.84 = w
z + 2.84 = 7
z = 7 - 2.84
z = 4.16
2) 0.8y = z
0.8y = 4.16
y = 4.16 / 0.8
y = 5.2
1) x - 1.05 = y
x - 1.05 = 5.2
x = 5.2 + 1.05
x = 6.25
Hope this helps :)
