Answer:
1. Not possible
2. Possible
3. Possible
4. Possible
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function |<em>x</em>| always returns a non-negative number. It takes any number <em>x</em> and returns <em>x</em> if it's already non-negative, or -<em>x</em> if it is negative in order to make it positive.
For the equation
-3 + 4 |2<em>x</em> - 5| = 14
rearrange terms to get
|2<em>x</em> - 5| = 17/4
Now,
• if 2<em>x</em> - 5 ≥ 0, then |2<em>x</em> - 5| = 2<em>x</em> - 5. Then
2<em>x</em> - 5 = 17/4
• and if instead 2<em>x</em> - 5 < 0, then |2<em>x</em> - 5| = -(2<em>x</em> - 5), so that
-(2<em>x</em> - 5) = 17/4, or
2<em>x</em> - 5 = -17/4
In the first case,
2<em>x</em> - 5 = 17/4
2<em>x</em> = 17/4 + 5 = 37/4
<em>x</em> = 37/8
In the second case,
2<em>x</em> - 5 = -17/4
2<em>x</em> = -17/4 + 5 = 3/4
<em>x</em> = 3/8
Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 0.50.
P(4<=X<=8)=P(x=4)+ P(x=5)+ P(x=6)+ P(x=7)+ P(x=8)= 0.05+ 0.15+0.15+0.15 +0 = 0.50
Notice that in 8 the line touches the x axis so it’s corresponding probability is 0.
