$\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Question:-}}}}$

3 times some number decreased by 5 is no less than 16.

$\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}}$

3n-5≥16

$\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{How\:to\:Solve:-}}}}$

First, notice it says "no less than 16"

So the expression can't be less than 16, so it's greater than or equal to 16.

Now, let the number be n.

Multiply 3 times n:

"Decreased by 5" means you subtract 5:-

3n-5

Inequality:- 3n-5≥15

Solve:

3n-5≥15

3n≥15+5

3n≥20

n≥20/3

Confirm that f and g are inverses by showing that f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x. f(x) = (x-8)/(x+7) g(x) = (-7x-8)/(x-1) I'm runni

Sphinxa [80]

$f(x)=\frac{x-8}{x+7} \\
g(x)=\frac{-7x-8}{x-1} \\ \\
f(g(x))=\frac{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}-8}{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}+7}=\frac{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}-\frac{8(x-1)}{x-1}}{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}+\frac{7(x-1)}{x-1}}=\frac{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}-\frac{8x-8}{x-1}}{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}+\frac{7x-7}{x-1}}=\frac{\frac{-7x-8-8x+8}{x-1}}{\frac{-7x-8+7x-7}{x-1}}= \\ =\frac{\frac{-13x}{x-1}}{\frac{-13}{x-1}}=\frac{-13x}{(x-1)} \times \frac{(x-1)}{-13}=x \\ \Downarrow \\ f(g(x))=x \\
\checkmark$

$g(f(x))=\frac{-7(\frac{x-8}{x+7})-8}{\frac{x-8}{x+7}-1}=\frac{\frac{-7(x-8)}{x+7}-\frac{8(x+7)}{x+7}}{\frac{x-8}{x+7}-\frac{1(x+7)}{x+7}}=\frac{\frac{-7x+56}{x+7}-\frac{8x+56}{x+7}}{\frac{x-8}{x+7}-\frac{x+7}{x+7}}= \\
=\frac{\frac{-7x+56-8x-56}{x+7}}{\frac{x-8-x-7}{x+7}}=\frac{\frac{-15x}{x+7}}{\frac{-15}{x+7}}=\frac{-15x}{(x+7)} \times \frac{(x+7)}{-15}=x \\ \Downarrow \\ g(f(x))=x \\ \checkmark$

I need help with this please help me I need to show work too

crimeas [40]

Answer:

55+19.50m=250

Step-by-step explanation:

55 is the intial fee it doesn't have to be multiplied by anything.

19.50 is monthly it is multiplied by how many months she is going to be there. the amount of months is unknown so you use a variable I chose m for months or monthly.

it will be set equal to 250 because that is the amount of money that she has to spend.

I hope this helps I am sorry if it is wrong

If a 1% level of significance is used to test a null hypothesis, there is a probability of __________ of rejecting the null hypo

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

If a 1% level of significance is used to test a null hypothesis, there is a probability of ____ less than 1%______ of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a hypothesis testing is done.

Level of significance used is 1%

i.e. alpha = 1%

When we do hypothesis test, we find out test statistic Z or t suitable for the test and find p value

If p value is < 1% we reject null hypothesis otherwise we accept null hypothesis.

So p value can be atmost 1% only for accepting null hypothesis.

So the answer is 1%

If a 1% level of significance is used to test a null hypothesis, there is a probability of ____less than 1%______ of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true.
