Answer:

x = -17

y = -68

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 51

y/x = 4  so we can say that y = 4x

using substitution:

x - 4x = 51

-3x = 51

x = -17

find 'y':

-17 - y = 51

-y = 68

y = -68

check:

-17 - (-68) = 51

51 = 51

-68/-17 = 4

4 = 4

Suppose that the probability density function for the length x in feet of some type of fish caught by sport fishermen is given b
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The probability that a fish caught by a fisherman is between 0.25 feet and 2 feet long is 0.4375.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability density function or p.d.f. for the length <em>x,</em> in feet, of some type of fish caught by sport fishermen is :

p(x) = \left \{{{(\frac{1}{4})\ ;\  0\leq x\leq 4 } \atop{0\ ;\ otherwise} \right.

The probability that a fish caught by a fisherman is between 0.25 feet and 2 feet long is:

P(0.25\leq X\leq 2)=\int\limits^{0.25}_{2} {(\frac{1}{4})} \, dx \\=|(\frac{1}{4})x|^{2}_{0.25}\\=(\frac{1}{4})(2-0.25)\\=0.4375

Thus, the probability that a fish caught by a fisherman is between 0.25 feet and 2 feet long is 0.4375.

I NEED HELP PLEASE! Jenny's birthday cake is circular and has a 30 cm radius. Her slice creates an arc of with a central angle o
dybincka [34]
Ok, so if the angle is 120 degrees, its one third of the full cake (which is 360 degrees). So the area of the whole circle (worked out with area = pi * r^2 where r is 30) gives 900*pi, and so one third of that (because her slice is one third)  is 300pi.

13 If B is the midpoint of AC, and AC = 8x – 20,<br><br> find BC.<br><br> 3x-1<br><br> А в
Papessa [141]

Answer:

BC = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

B is the midpoint of AC

Then AC = AB + BC

AC = 8x - 20 and AB = 3x - 1

Then,

8x - 20 = (3x - 1) + BC

8x - 20 - (3x - 1) = BC

8x - 20 - 3x + 1 = BC

5x - 19 = BC

But AB = BC

5x - 19 = 3x - 1

5x - 3x = - 1 + 19

2x = 18

x = 9

Hence,

Since BC = AB = 3x - 1

3(9) - 1

27 - 1

= 26
