Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 12x - 2(x + 9) = 5(x + 4) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )

- 12x - 2x - 18 = 5x + 20 , that is

- 14x - 18 = 5x + 20 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

- 19x - 18 = 20 ( add 18 to both sides )

- 19x = 38 ( divide both sides by - 19 )

x = - 2 → A

Answer:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11$

And rounded up we have that n=1068

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given:

$Confidence= 0.95$ the confidence level desired

$ME =0.03$ represent the margin of error desired

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

The confidence level is 95% or 0.95, the significance is $\alpha=0.05$ and the critical value for this case using the normal standard distribution would be $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Since we don't have prior information we can use $\hat p= 0.5$ as an unbiased estimator

Also we know that $ME =\pm 0.03$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11$

And rounded up we have that n=1068

Find the value of x (look at screenshot below)

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

120 = 70 + 2x

120 - 70 = (70 - 70) + 2x

50 = 2x

50/2 = 2x/2

x = 25
