Solve: 5x(8-4) divide 4-2=

Mathematics

5x(8 - 4)/4 - 2

Remember to follow PEMDAS.

First, subtract 8 and 4

8 - 4 = 4

5x(4)/4 - 2

Next, follow the left -> right rule, and multiply 5x and 4

5x(4) = 20x

Divide by 4

20x/4 = 5x

Finally, note that one has a variable, and the other has a constant, and so you cannot combine.

5x - 2 is your answer

hope this helps

If n - 2y = 3y- n/m,find the value of n when y = 5 and m = -3
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

37 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

n - 2y = 3y- n/m,

find the value of n when y = 5 and m = -3

--------

n-2*5=3*5-n/-3

n-10=15+n/3

n-n/3=15+10

2n/3=25

2n=3*25

n=75/2

n=37 1/2 or 37.5

Sylvester and Lin go to the amusement park. Sylvester plays 5 rounds of mini golf and takes 4 turns in the batting cages for $60
leva [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

let's use g for golf and b for batting cages

So let's start with Sylvester

he plays 5 rounds of mini golf so 5g

and he takes 4 turns in the batting cages so 4b

and he pays 60 dollars for this

SO his equation is 5g+4b=60

Now onto Lin

3g for 3 rounds of golf

6b for 6 turns in the batting cages

He pays 45 dollars

SO his equation is 3g+6b=45

Both equations:

5g+4b=60

3g+6b=45

Now you need to cancel out one variable so you can multiply the first equation by 3 and the second one by -5

15g+12b=120

-15g-30b=-225

Now the g will cancel out when you add both equations

-18b=-105

b=105/18 which is about 5.83 dollars

Now plug in 105/18 into any of the original equations and solve for g

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of LB if L(8,5) and B(-6,2)<br><br> 10 points!!!
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

A, (1, 3+1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint formula for reference: m= {(x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2}

Plugging in the points we get: m= {(8 - 6)/2, (5 + 2)/2}

Now we simplify using PEMDAS. First step is parentheses.

m= {2/2, 7/2}

Simplifying again (and making 7/2 a mixed number), it becomes

m= {1, 3+1/2}

Hope this helps!

A bin of 5 transistors is known to contain 2 that are defective. The transistors are to be tested, one at a time, until the defe
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

P(N_1 = a , N_2 = b)= \frac{1}{5-a C 1} * \frac{5-a C 1}{5C2} = \frac{1}{5C2}=\frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

For the random variable N_1 we define the possible values for this variable on this case [1,2,3,4,5] . We know that we have 2 defective transistors so then we have 5C2 (where C means combinatory) ways to select or permute the transistors in order to detect the first defective:

5C2 = \frac{5!}{2! (5-2)!}= \frac{5*4*3!}{2! 3!}= \frac{5*4}{2*1}=10

We want the first detective transistor on the ath place, so then the first a-1 places are non defective transistors, so then we can define the probability for the random variable N_1 like this:

P(N_1 = a) = \frac{5-a C 1}{5C2}

For the distribution of N_2 we need to take in count that we are finding a conditional distribution. N_2 given N_1 =a, for this case we see that N_2 \in [1,2,...,5-a], so then exist 5-a C 1 ways to reorder the remaining transistors. And if we want b additional steps to obtain a second defective transistor we have the following probability defined:

P(N_2 =b | N_1 = a) = \frac{1}{5-a C 1}

And if we want to find the joint probability we just need to do this:

P(N_1 = a , N_2 = b) = P(N_2 = b | N_1 = a) P(N_1 =a)

And if we multiply the probabilities founded we got:

P(N_1 = a , N_2 = b)= \frac{1}{5-a C 1} * \frac{5-a C 1}{5C2} = \frac{1}{5C2}=\frac{1}{10}
