.2 is 2/10 while .5 is 1/2. 1/2 is much larger than 1/5 (which is 2/10 reduced).

Find the value of x ?

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

add all terms and set sum equal to 360

the 'hint' of (n-2)180 determines how many degrees there are inside the polygon; if 'n' equals the number of sides and the polygon has 4 sides then sum of interior angles is (4-2)180 or 2x180 which is 360

x + 10 + 3x + x + 2x = 360

combine like terms to get: 7x + 10 = 360

7x = 350

x = 50

Evaluate the following expressions, and justify your answers.<br> WhatPower7(49)

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

whatpower7(49) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

WhatPower7(49)

to find out

Evaluate the expressions WhatPower7(49)

solution

as we know that whatpower mean exponent of equation so we get by given equation

we know whatpower7(49) = 2

because

we know that 7 × 7 = 49

so that 7² = 49

so that the exponent is here 2 for 7 that become 49

so correct answer is 2

Solve the equation square root 2x – 7 + x = 5 algebraically, and justify the solution set

yarga [219]

Answer: $x=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x-7+x=5$

Group like terms:

$\left(2x+x\right)-7=5$

Simplify the arithmetic:

$3x-7=5$

Add 7 to both sides:

$3x-7+7=5+7$

Simplify the arithmetic:

$3x=5+7$

Simplify the arithmetic:

$3x=12$

Divide both sides by 3:

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{12}{3}$

Simplify the fraction:

$x=\frac{12}{3}$

Find the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator:

$x=\frac{4\cdot 3}{1\cdot 3}$

Factor out and cancel the greatest common factor and the answer will be:

$x=4$

Use the rules of exponents to evaluate or simplify. Write without negative exponents. 1/4^-1/2 = ___ a0

Nastasia [14]

For this case we have, by definition:

$a^{-b} =\frac{1}{a ^ b}$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{(\frac{1}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

On the other hand we have that by definition:

$a^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{a}$

Thus, the expression can be written as:

$\frac{1}{\sqrt {\frac{1}{4}}} =$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{4}}}$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}$

$\frac{1*2}{1*1}=2$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

The stock price for International Business Machines (IBM) historically has followed an approximately normal distribution (when a

olganol [36]

Answer:

0.494 is the probability that on a selected day the stock price is between $186.26 and $192.47.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = $188.876

Standard Deviation, σ = $4.6412

We are given that the distribution of stock price is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P(stock price is between $186.26 and $192.47)

$P(186.26 \leq x \leq 192.47) = P(\displaystyle\frac{186.26 - 188.876}{4.6412} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{192.47-188.876}{4.6412}) = P(-0.5636 \leq z \leq 0.7743)\\\\= P(z \leq 0.7743) - P(z < -0.5636)\\= 0.781 - 0.287 = 0.494 = 49.4\%$

$P(186.26 \leq x \leq 192.47) = 49.4\%$

0.494 is the probability that on a selected day the stock price is between $186.26 and $192.47.
