The value of 'x' from the expression is 1/3

Given the expression;

[tex]x + \frac{x}{3} = \frac{4}{9}[/tex]

Find the LCM of the left side, we have

[tex]\frac{3x + x}{3} = \frac{4}{9}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]9(4x) = 4 *3[/tex]

[tex]36x = 12[/tex]

Make 'x' the subject

[tex]x = \frac{12}{36}[/tex]

x = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Thus, the value of 'x' from the expression is 1/3

Hello !

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf x=\dfrac{1}{3} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Our aim is to find the value of x that verifies the following equation :

[tex]\sf x+\frac{x}{3} =\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

Let's isolate x :

Multiply both sides by 3 :

[tex]\sf 3(x+\frac{x}{3} )=\frac{4}{9}\times 3\\ \sf 3x+x=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Now we can combine like terms :

[tex]\sf 4x=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Finally, let's divide both sides by 4 :

[tex]\sf \frac{4x}{4} =\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} \\\boxed{\sf x=\dfrac{1}{3} }[/tex]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is calculated with the following formula:

[tex]\frac{1}{2} *b*h[/tex] (b: base, h: height (or legs))

We can use this formula to find the length of the other leg:

30 = [tex]\frac{1}{2} *b*h[/tex] multiply both sides with 2 to get rid of fraction

60 = b*h one of the leg's length is given as 5 so

60 = 5*h divide both sides by 5

12 = h is the length of the missing leg.

The two main arithmetic operations that we learn to add and subtract two or more integers or other mathematical values are arithmetic addition and subtraction. The addition symbol is the plus sign (+), and the subtraction symbol is the minus sign (-). (minus sign).

The initial number of passengers on board=29

After 4 people get off at the first stop,

Using arithmetic addition and subtraction, we get,

Number of passengers left=29-4=25

After 11 people get on,

Number of passengers=25+11=36

At the second stop, when 7 people get off,

Number of passengers=36-7=29

When 23 people get on,

Answer:

w = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle{\dfrac{w-2}{4} = \dfrac{2w+1}{10}}[/tex]

First, clear out the denominators by multiplying both sides by LCM. In this scenario, our LCM is 40. Thus, multiply both sides by 40:

[tex]\displaystyle{\dfrac{w-2}{4} \cdot 40= \dfrac{2w+1}{10} \cdot 40}[/tex]

Simplify the expressions/equations:

[tex]\displaystyle{(w-2)\cdot 10= (2w+1)\cdot 4}\\\\\displaystyle{10w-20= 8w+4}[/tex]

Isolate w-variable:

Let [tex]C[/tex] be the set of all students in the classroom.

Let [tex]P[/tex] and [tex]M[/tex] be the sets of students that pass physics and math, respectively.

We're given

[tex]n(C) = 60[/tex]

[tex]n(P \cap M') = 17[/tex]

[tex]n(P \cap M) = 25[/tex]

[tex]n((P \cup M)') = n(P' \cap M') = 9[/tex]

i. We can split up [tex]P[/tex] into subsets of students that pass both physics and math [tex](P\cap M)[/tex] and those that pass only physics [tex](P\cap M')[/tex]. These sets are disjoint, so

[tex]n(P) = n(P\cap M) + n(P\cap M') = 25 + 17 = \boxed{42}[/tex]

ii. 9 students fails both subjects, so we find

[tex]n(C) = n(P\cup M) + n(P\cup M)' \implies n(P\cup M) = 60 - 9 = 51[/tex]

By the inclusion/exclusion principle,

[tex]n(P\cup M) = n(P) + n(M) - n(P\cap M)[/tex]

Using the result from part (i), we have

The cutoffs from the left and right sides of normal distribution at a 95-percent confidence level are 1.96.

The confidence level, which is used in statistics, describes the likelihood that the estimation of a statistical parameter's location in a sample survey is also true for the population.

Confidence levels must be decided upon in advance when surveying since they affect the survey's essential scope and error margin. Confidence intervals of 90, 95, and 99 percent are widely employed in surveys.

If the confidence level were set at 95%, there is a very good likelihood that the population's arithmetic mean, as a statistical number, will fall within the survey's established margins of error.

c. The approximating polynomial value is p1(0.97) = 1.03; p2(0.97) = 1.0309

According to the statement

we have given that the f(x) = 1/x

And we have to find that polynomial approximate values which are written below

The linear approximating polynomial And quadratic approximating polynomial And approximate the given quantity of polynomials obtained in parts a. and b.

So, the given function is f(x) = 1/x

And

f'(x) =  -1/x²

f''(x) = 2/x³

a = 1

Now, we find the linear approximating polynomial

So,

a. The linear approximating polynomial is:

p1(x) = f(a) + f'(a)*(x - a)

p1(x) = 1/1 + -1/1² * (x - 1)

p1(x) = 1 - x + 1

p1(x) = 2 - x

And Now, we find the quadratic approximating polynomial

So,

b. The quadratic approximating polynomial is:

p2(x) = p1(x) + 1/2 * f''(a)*(x - a)²

p2(x) = 2 - x + 1/2 * 2/1³ * (x - 1)²

p2(x) = 2 - x + (x - 1)²

p2(x) = 2 - x + x² - 2*x + 1

p2(x) = x² - 3*x + 3

And Now, we find the approximating polynomial value

So,

c. approximate 1/0.97 using p1(x)

p1(0.97) = 2 - 0.97 = 1.03

approximate 1/0.97 using p2(x)

p2(0.97) = 0.97² - 3*0.97 + 3 = 1.0309

So, The polynomial approximate values are

a. The linear approximating polynomial is p1(x) = 2 - x

b.The quadratic approximating polynomial is  p2(x) = x² - 3*x + 3

When the above kind of set is given the second values of each elements belongs to the range or the y whereas, the first values of the elements belongs to the domain or x.

Answer:

A) y = 16/(x^2), B) 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, we can plug in some of the table values to check it. I will try 2 and 3

2. 4 = 16 / (2^2)

    16/4 = 4

3. 16/9 = 16 / (3^2)

   16/9 = 16/9

B) We can just input y into the formula 25 = 16 / (x^2)

This leaves us with +-4/5

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

given y varies inversely as x² then the equation relating them is

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x^2}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

to find k substitute any ordered pair from the table into the equation

using (2, 4 ) , then

4 = [tex]\frac{k}{2^2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{k}{4}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 4 )

16 = k

y = [tex]\frac{16}{x^2}[/tex] ← equation of variation

(b)

when y = 25 , then

25 = [tex]\frac{16}{x^2}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by x² )

25x² = 16 ( divide both sides by 25 )

x² = [tex]\frac{16}{25}[/tex] ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± [tex]\sqrt{\frac{16}{25} }[/tex] = ± [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

the positive value of x is x = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

3. True because angles in a triangle add to 180°

4. Not necessarily true

5. True because the medians are being constructed, and the three medians of a triangle are always concurrent.

6. Not necessarily true

The statements that are true about the triangle are:

Option C: m∠P + m∠Q + m∠R = 180°

Option E: PT, QU, and RS intersect at the same point.

1. m∠Q = m∠R: This is not true because there is no indication that the angles are equal.

2.The length of QU is half the length of RP: This is not true because there is no length given to show that measurement.

3. m∠P + m∠Q + m∠R = 180°:

4. QU ≅ RS:
