we have
Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation
Combine like terms
Divide by both sides
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the value of p in the linear equation is
Like all problems that involve images within the question, we should definitely try to draw this out. In the picture above, I have done this.
Now, we can see that this is just a simple proportion problem. For every 2.5 cm of height of the flower, we are 2 cm from the opening, or aperture. For every 20 cm of height, how far are we? We can set up the problem like this:
20 ............2.5
-------- = ---------
...x ............. 2
where x is the unknown distance to the aperture from the flower. Now, we just need to get x by itself. A typical way of solving something like this is by doing "butterfly multiplication" which is really just a shortcut haha. Anyway, I can rewrite that equation ^ as:
20×2 = 2.5 × x
Then, to solve for x, we would divide both sides by 2.5. (If you don't know why that is, please let me know and I'll elaborate).
We would then have:
20×2
------- = x
2.5
Which then simplifies to:
x = 16
Try using the same logic for your second question, and if you get stuck, I'd be happy to help! please let me know if any of this doesn't make sense. :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that you and a friend play a game where you each toss a balanced coin.
If the upper faces on the coins are both tails, you win $1;
if the faces are both heads, you win $2;
if the coins do not match (one shows a head, the other a tail), you lose $1 (win (−$1)).
Let Y be the amount won
Then Y can take values as 1,2 and -1
The above is the probability distribution for Y.
Answer:
the baser to their question would be 2 since its lined up and thrn it would be 4
