-2x + 3 > 3(2x - 1)

the inequality sign > means 'greater than'.

First simplify the right side of the equation by distributing the 3 over the parentheses:-

-2x + 3 > 6x - 3

Now add -6x to both sides of the inequality  which gives us
-8x + 3 > -3
Adding -3 to both sides we have
-8x > -6

The next step is to divide  both sides by -8 so x is isolated on the left side and this gives us the solution. However there is a rule with inequalities that if you divide  the variable term by a negative the inequality is flipped. So in this case , greater that (>) becomes  less than (<):-

-8x / -8 < -6/-8

x <  3/4  is your answer.

A pipe that is 120 cm long resonates to produce sound of wavelengths 480 cm, 160 cm, and 96 cm but does not resonate at any wave
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

A Pipe that is 120 cm long resonates to produce sound of wavelengths 480 cm, 160 cm and 96 cm but does not resonate at any wavelengths longer than these. This pipe is:

A. closed at both ends

B. open at one end and closed at one end

C. open at both ends.

D. we cannot tell because we do not know the frequency of the sound.

The right choice is:

B. open at one end and closed at one end .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the pipe, L = 120 cm

Its wavelength \lambda_1 = 480 cm

                         \lambda_2 = 160 cm and \lambda_3 = 96 cm

We have to find whether the pipe is open,closed or open-closed or none.

Note:

  • The fundamental wavelength of a pipe which is open at both ends is 2L.
  • The fundamental wavelength of a pipe which is closed at one end and open at another end is 4L.

So,

The fundamental wavelength:

⇒ 4L=4(120)=480\ cm

It seems that the pipe is open at one end and closed at one end.

Now lets check with the subsequent wavelengths.

For one side open and one side closed pipe:

An odd-integer number of quarter wavelength have to fit into the tube of length L.

⇒  \lambda_2=\frac{4L}{3}                                   ⇒  \lambda_3=\frac{4L}{5}

⇒ \lambda_2=\frac{4(120)}{3}                              ⇒  \lambda_3=\frac{4(120)}{5}

⇒ \lambda_2=\frac{480}{3}                                  ⇒  \lambda_3=\frac{480}{5}

⇒ \lambda_2=160\ cm                           ⇒   \lambda_3=96\ cm  

So the pipe is open at one end and closed at one end .

yulyashka [42]

Answer: Straight piecework plan

Step-by-step explanation:

The Straight piecework plan is a type of incentive system in which the rate per unit output is constant and fixed at a specific value. And the total earnings of a worker is calculated by multiplying the value of its total output by the rate per unit output.

In the case above the rate per unit invoice processed is fixed, so employees are paid based on the number of invoice processed per hour which makes it a Straight piecework plan system.

Company F sells fabrics known as fat quarters, which are rectangles of fabric created by cutting a yard of fabric into four piec
jeka94

Answer:

a) Y 0 1 2

P(Y) 0.58 0.23 0.11

b) mean= 0.45, S.D= 0.6718

c) mean= 1.285, S.D= 8.74

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The following table shows the probability distribution of X:

X 0 1 2 3 4 or more

P(X) 0.58 0.23 0.11 0.05 0.03

Defect >2 = cannot be sold

Y = the number of defects on a fat quarter that can be sold by Company F.

Y = defect that can be sold

Y = Defect less or equal to 2 = 0,1,2

Probability distribution of the random variable Y:

Y 0 1 2

P(Y) 0.58 0.23 0.11

b) mean of Y (μ)

μ = Σ x*P(Y)

= (0*0.58) +(1*0.23)+(2*0.11)

= 0+0.23+0.22 = 0.45

Standard deviation of Y = σ

σ = Σ√(x-mean)^2*P(Y)

= Σ√[(x- μ )^2*P(Y)]

= √[(0-0.45)^2*0.58+ (1-0.45)^2*0.23 + (2-0.45)^2*0.11]

= √[0.11745 + 0.069575 +0.264275

= √(0.4513

σ = 0.6718

Company G:

σ for defect that be sold = 0.66

μ for defect that be sold = 0.40

Difference between μ of F and μ of G

= 0.45-0.40 = 0.05

Difference between σ of F and σ of G

= 0.67-0.66 = 0.01

Selling price of fat quarter without defect = $5

Discount per defect = $1.5

Selling price per defect = 5-1.5 = $3.5

Discount per 2 defect = $1.5*2 = $3

Selling price per defect = 5-3 = $2

Since defect to be sold cannot be greater than 2, let Y = 5,3,2

Probability distribution of the selling price Y:

Y 5 3 2

P(Y) 0.58 0.23 0.11

μ = (5*0.58) +(3.5*0.23)+(2*0.11)

μ = 2.9+0.805+0.22 =1.285

σ = Σ√[(x- μ )^2*P(Y)]

σ = √[(5-1.285)^2*0.58+ (3-1.285)^2*0.23 + (2-1.285)^2*0.11]

σ = 8.00+0.68+0.06 = 8.74
