Solve for the variable x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
inna [77]2 years ago

Answer:

<u>x = 5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equating the terms :

  • x + 3 = 2x - 2

Add 2 on both sides :

  • x + 3 + 2 = 2x - 2 + 2
  • x + 5 = 2x

Subtract x from both sides :

  • x + 5 - x = 2x - x
  • <u>x = 5</u>

Answer:

A. 6

B. 143

C. The words "less than", "equal to", and "no more than"

Step-by-step explanation:

For a, we would want to first make an equation to represent the problem. It appears you've already figured that out though, so lets solve it!

Subtract 56 on both sides.

-6m=-36

Now divide -36 by -6 to isolate m.

m=6

It will take her 6 minutes.

For B, we need to make another equation.

2.95b<450-28

First, we can subtract 28 from the total, because she has already spent $28.

Now our equation is 2.95b<422

Lastly, just divide both sides by 2.95 to isolate b.

Our solution is 143. So she can buy 143 batteries.

Lastly, for 13, we can say that the words "less than", "equal to" and "no more than" can indicate an inequality in a real word problem.

Hope this helps!

Historically, the proportion of people who trade in their old car to a car dealer when purchasing a new car is 48%. Over the pre
choli [55]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.4 -0.48}{\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{115}}}=-1.717  

p_v =P(z  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people that have traded in their old car is lower than 0.48 or 48%.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=115 represent the random sample taken

X=46 represent the number of people that have traded in their old car.

\hat p=\frac{46}{115}=0.4 estimated proportion of people that have traded in their old car

p_o=0.48 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.1 represent the significance level

Confidence=90% or 0.9

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion is less than 0.48.:  

Null hypothesis:p\geq 0.48  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.48  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.4 -0.48}{\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{115}}}=-1.717  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided \alpha=0.1. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people that have traded in their old car is lower than 0.48 or 48%.

Geometry
igomit [66]

If the base is square, and the perimeter is 14.5, that means that each side of the base is 14.5/4=3.625. Since we now know the length and the width, as well as the height which is 16.8, we plug into the formula \frac{lwh}{3}. So, plug in the details \frac{3.625*3.625*16.8}{3} Your answer will be 73.6 cm^3
