Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{FALSE}}$

$\boxed{\sf{x\leq 15}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the term of x from one side of the equation.

<u>First, add by 5 from both sides.</u>

$\sf{x-5+5\leq10+5}$

<u>Solve.</u>

<u>Add the numbers from left to right.</u>

$\sf{10+5=15}$

$\Longrightarrow: \boxed{\sf{x\leq 15}}$

<u>Therefore, the solution is x≤15, which is our answer.</u>

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

<h3>hello!</h3>

Let's solve this inequality.

First, we should add 5 to both sides:-

x≤10+5

x≤15

Remember, the "≤" sign means "less than or equal to"

So is x=6 a solution to the inequality x≤15? Will this solution make the inequality true?

Yes.

Hope everything is clear; if you need any explanation/clarification, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

A mathematical equation is the representation of a problem by the use of variables. Often times, an equation is formed from the factors that are in a problem.

We have to represented each of the books read with an algebraic term;

Let the number of mystery books be y

Let the number of sports books be x

Total number of books = 23

We know that;

x + y = 23

but y = 10

x = 23 - 10

x = 13 books

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for population proportion of people who refuse evacuation is {0.30, 0.33].

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample drawn is of size, <em>n</em> = 5046.

As the sample size is large, i.e. <em>n</em> > 30, according to the Central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion will be normally distributed with mean $\hat p$ and standard deviation $\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n} }$ .

The mean is: $\hat p=0.31$

The confidence level (CL) = 98%

The confidence interval for single proportion is:

$CI_{p}=[\hat p-z_{(\alpha /2)}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n} },\ \hat p+z_{(\alpha /2)}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n} }]$

Here $z_{(\alpha /2)}$ = critical value and <em>α </em>= significance level.

Compute the value of <em>α</em> as follows:

$\alpha =1-CL\\=1-0.98\\=0.02$

For <em>α</em> = 0.02 the critical value can be computed from the <em>z</em> table.

Then the value of $z_{(\alpha /2)}$ is ± 2.33.

The 98% confidence interval for population proportion is:

$CI_{p}=[\hat p-z_{(\alpha /2)}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n} },\ \hat p+z_{(\alpha /2)}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n} }]\\=[0.31-2.33\times \sqrt{\frac{0.31\times(1-0.33)}{5046} },\ 0.31+2.33\times \sqrt{\frac{0.31\times(1-0.33)}{5046} } ]\\=[0.31-0.0152,\ 0.31+0.0152]\\=[0.2948,0.3252]\\\approx[0.30,\ 0.33]$

Thus, the 98% confidence interval [0.30, 0.33] implies that there is a 0.98 probability that the population proportion of people who refuse evacuation is between 0.30 and 0.33.
