twice a number increased by 8 is 20. find the number​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be ×

Twice a number is 2×

Twice a number increase by 8 is 2×+8

hence the equivalent will be

2×+8=20

2×=12

×6

Answer 2

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the unknown number.

"Twice a number" means to multiply the number by 2:  

⇒ 2n

"Increase by 8" means to add 8:

⇒ 2n + 8

"Is 20" means equals 20:

⇒ 2n + 8 = 20

Therefore, the equation is:  2n + 8 = 20

To solve, subtract 8 from both sides:

⇒ 2n + 8 - 8 = 20 - 8

⇒ 2n = 12

Divide both sides by 2:

⇒ 2n ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 2

⇒ n = 6

Therefore, the unknown number is 6.

A one-to-one function has an inverse. The inverse is another function that undoes the action of the first one, so if we evaluate a function [tex]f[/tex] at some point [tex]x[/tex] to get the number [tex]f(x)[/tex], evaluating the inverse at [tex]f(x)[/tex] will recover the original input [tex]x[/tex]. In other words,

[tex]f^{-1}(f(x)) = x[/tex]

The process works in the opposite direction, too:

[tex]f\left(f^{-1}(x)\right) = x[/tex]

From the given definition of [tex]g[/tex], we have [tex]g(-4) = 3[/tex], so taking inverses on both sides, we find

[tex]g(-4) = 3 \implies g^{-1}(g(-4)) = g^{-1}(3) \implies \boxed{g^{-1}(3) = -4}[/tex]

Given [tex]h(x)=2x-13[/tex], evaluating [tex]h[/tex] at its inverse will recover [tex]x[/tex], so that

[tex]h\left(h^{-1}(x)\right) = x \implies 2h^{-1}(x) - 13 = x \implies \boxed{h^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{x+13}2}[/tex]

[tex](h\circ h^{-1})(x)[/tex] is another way of writing the compound function [tex]h\left(h^{-1}(x)\right)[/tex]. As already discussed, this reduces to [tex]x[/tex], so

[tex]\boxed{\left(h\circ h^{-1}\right)(-9) = -9}[/tex]

Find the area of triangle PQR.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the angle of QPR, we subtract 90-60=30. This proves that the triangle is a 30,60,90, as angle QRP must be 60°. To get the area, we must know the length and width. These can be derived from a known relationship within 30,60,90 triangles.

[tex]qp = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} n[/tex]

[tex]qr = \frac{1}{2} n[/tex]

[tex]pr = n[/tex]

because half of pr is 10, we can conclude that n is 20. So we plug 20 into N for QP and QR, and get values of

[tex]qp = 5 \sqrt{3} [/tex]

[tex]qr = 5[/tex]

Now we multiply (l*w)/2 and get:

The Scooter Company manufactures and sells electric scooters. Each scooter cost $150 to produce, and the company has a fixed cost of $2,000. The Scooter Company earns a total revenue that can be determined by the function R(x) = 400x − 2x2, where x represents each electric scooter sold. Which of the following functions represents the Scooter Company's total profit?

−2x2 − 150x − 2,000
−2x2 + 250x − 2,000
−2x2 + 150x − 1,600
−300x3 − 4,000x2 + 60,000x + 800,000

Answers

The function that represents the Scooter Company's total profit is given by:

P(x) = -2x² + 250x - 2,000.

How to calculate the profit function?

The profit function is calculated by the revenue function subtracted by the cost function, hence:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x).

In this problem, we have that:

The revenue function is: R(x) = 400x - 2x².The cost function is: X(x) = 150x + 2000.

Hence the profit function is:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x).

P(x) = 400x - 2x² - (150x + 2000).

P(x) = -2x² + 250x - 2,000.

[tex]\text{C.} \ \ \ {\left(\textit{AB}\right)}^{2} \ = \ \left(\textit{AC}\right)\left(\textit{AD}\right)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem uses the concept of the tangent-secant theorem which describes the relationship of the segments a secant line and a tangent line with the associated circle. This theorem is found as Proposition 36 in Book 3 of Euclid's Elements.

As shown in the figure attached below, segment AB (in blue) forms a tangent with the circle BCD and segment AD (in orange) is the secant where it intersects the circle at point C.

Furthermore, let two segments (in green) be drawn one from point C and point D.

To show that [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] is similar to [tex]\triangle ADB[/tex], notice that both triangles share a common angle [tex]\angle BAC[/tex]. Additionally, by the alternate segment theorem, [tex]\angle ABC[/tex] is equal to [tex]\angle ADB[/tex]. Therefore, [tex]\angle ACB[/tex] is also equal to [tex]\angle ABD[/tex].

Hence, [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] is indeed similar to [tex]\triangle ADB[/tex]. This implies the ratio of the sides of both triangles is the same. Particularly,

                                                  [tex]\displaystyle{\frac{AB}{AD} \ \ = \ \ \frac{AC}{AB}}[/tex].

Then, performing cross multiplication yields

                                             [tex]{\left(AB\right)}^{2} \ \ = \ \ \left(AC\right)\left(AD\right)[/tex].

Therefore, the product of the lengths of the secant segment and its external segment is equal to the square of the length of the tangent segment.

The mean health score for all employees (population) was 85, with a population standard deviation of 6.5. Calculate the standard error of the mean

Answers

The standard error will be equal to 0.75.

What is the standard error?

The standard deviation of a statistic's sample distribution, or an approximation of that standard deviation, is the statistic's standard error. The term "standard error of the mean" is used when referring to a statistic that is the sample mean.

The standard error will be calculated by using the formula:-

SE = [tex]\sigma[/tex] / √n

Here [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the sample number.

SE = 6.5 / √75

SE = 0.75

Therefore the standard error will be equal to 0.75.
