Answer:

The solution is $x>\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound inequality is an inequality that combines two simple inequalities.

We want to solve for x the following compound inequality

$3x-91>-87 \:{OR} \:{21x-17>25}$

Solving the first inequality for x, we get:

$3x-91+91>-87+91\\\\3x>4\\\\x>\frac{4}{3}$

Solving the second inequality for x, we get:

$21x-17+17>25+17\\\\21x>42\\\\x>2$

So our compound inequality can be expressed as the simple inequality:

$x>\frac{4}{3}$

The graph of a compound inequality with an "or" represents the union of the graphs of the inequalities. A number is a solution to the compound inequality if the number is a solution to at least one of the inequalities.

Graphically, we get

Answer:

x > 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first inequality can be solved this way ...

3x -91 > -87

3x > 4 . . . . . . . add 91

x > 4/3 . . . . . . divide by 3

The second inequality has solution ...

21x -17 > 25

21x > 42 . . . . . . add 17

x > 2 . . . . . . . . . divide by 21

The solution set is the union of these overlapping solutions, so will be equal to the first solution:

x > 4/3

The population of lengths of aluminum-coated steel sheets is normally distributed with a mean of 30.05 inches and a standard dev

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Probability that the average length of a sheet is between 30.25 and 30.35 inches long is 0.0214 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the population of lengths of aluminum-coated steel sheets is normally distributed with a mean of 30.05 inches and a standard deviation of 0.2 inches.

Also, a sample of four metal sheets is randomly selected from a batch.

Let X bar = Average length of a sheet

The z score probability distribution for average length is given by;

Z = $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean = 30.05 inches

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 0.2 inches

n = sample of sheets = 4

So, Probability that average length of a sheet is between 30.25 and 30.35 inches long is given by = P(30.25 inches < X bar < 30.35 inches)

P(30.25 inches < X bar < 30.35 inches) = P(X bar < 30.35) - P(X bar <= 30.25)

P(X bar < 30.35) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\frac{30.35-30.05}{\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{4} } }$ ) = P(Z < 3) = 0.99865

P(X bar <= 30.25) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ <= $\frac{30.25-30.05}{\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{4} } }$ ) = P(Z <= 2) = 0.97725

Therefore, P(30.25 inches < X bar < 30.35 inches) = 0.99865 - 0.97725

= 0.0214

HIJK is a parallelogram because the midpoint of both diagonals is ____ which means the diagonals bisect each other.

just olya [345]

ANSWER

The midpoint of both diagonals is

$(1,0)$
EXPLANATION

We can use either diagonals to determine the midpoint.

We use the midpoint formula

$( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )$

Let us use the first diagonals H(-2,2) and J(4,-2)

$( \frac{ - 2 + 4}{2} , \frac{ - 2+ 2}{2} )$

$( \frac{ 2}{2} , \frac{ 0}{2} )$

$( 1, 0)$

Using the second diagonals also gives,

$( \frac{ - 2 + 4}{2} , \frac{ - 3+ 3}{2} )$

$( \frac{ 2}{2} , \frac{ 0}{2} )$

$( 1, 0)$
