2x+1=5x-44 that would be your equation

next start to simplify 

subtract 1 from both sides so you are left with 2x=5x-45

then subtract 5x from both sides and you have -3x=-45

then finally divide -3 from -45 to get x=15

Answer:

PQ=31\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In this problem Q is the midpoint of PR

so

PQ=QR

we have

PQ=2x+1 -----> equation A

QR=5x-44 -----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

2x+1=5x-44

solve for x

5x-2x=1+44

3x=45

x=15

Find the value of PQ

PQ=2x+1 ------> PQ=2(15)+1=31\ units

Among 21- to 25-year-olds, 29% say they have driven while under the influence of alcohol. Suppose that three 21- to 25-year-olds
Vilka [71]

Answer:

0.6421

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have 3 trials and we have 2 options for each one. The driver has or hasn't been under alcohol influence. The probability that the driver has is 0.29 and the probabiility that the driver hasn't is 1 - 0.29 = 0.71

each trial is independent because we are assuming that the population of drivers in between 21 and 25 years old is very big.

The probability that one of them was under alcohol influence can be found by finding the probability that non of them was under alcohol influence because:

1 = p(x = 0) + p(x ≥ 1)

p(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(0)

The probability that none of them was under alcohol influence is going to be:

0.71×0.71×0.71 = 0.3579

The probability of finding at least one driver that has been under alcohol influence is:

0.6421

Brenda is rolling a six-sided die and flipping a coin. Complete each of the following sentences regarding the probabilities invo
sveta [45]
So for number there are 6 possible outcomes nad 5 is one of them so 1/6
He next one there are 2 outcomes and heads is 1 outcome so 1/2
For the next one you have to multiply them together so you get 1/12
And the events are independent because whatever you roll on the die won’t affect the coin(it actually does on a very small scale but I don’t think you go into that much detail for high school maths)

Let f (x)= x + 18 − 3 x − 15 Choose the correct interval form for the DOMAIN of f and then enter the values for the endpoint(s)
natulia [17]

Answer:

The domain of f(x) corresponds to the set of real numbers.

D f(x) ∈ ∀X; D f(x) ∈ R

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=X+18-3X-15

f(x)=-2X+3 (right line with negative slope)

This function exists for all values of X, so the domain corresponds to the set of real numbers.

D f(x) ∈ ∀X; D f(x) ∈ R
