Answer: x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If line m is parallel to line n, the two angles given will be congruent because they will be alternate exterior angles (which are congruent).

This means we will set them equal to each other and solve for x.

Given:

(4x - 23) = (2x + 17)

Add 23 to both sides of the equation:

4x = 2x + 40

Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation:

2x = 40

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

x = 20

Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the p-value of the test is of 0.0302, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.05, the data provides convincing evidence that the average food intake is different for the patients in the treatment group.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the consumption is not different, that is, if the subtraction of the means is 0, hence:

$H_0: \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the consumption is different, that is, if the subtraction of the means is not 0, hence:

$H_1: \mu_1 - \mu_2 \neq 0$

Two groups of 22 patients, hence, the standard errors are:

$s_1 = \frac{45.1}{\sqrt{22}} = 9.6154$

$s_2 = \frac{26.4}{\sqrt{22}} = 5.6285$

The distribution of the differences is has:

$\overline{x} = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 52.1 - 27.1 = 25$

$s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{9.6154^2 + 5.6285^2} = 11.14$

The test statistic is given by:

$t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}$

In which $\mu = 0$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis.

Hence:

$t = \frac{25 - 0}{11.14}$

$t = 2.2438$

The p-value of the test is found using a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is different of a value, with t = 2.2438 and 22 + 22 - 2 = 42 df.

Using a t-distribution calculator, this p-value is of 0.0302.

Since the p-value of the test is of 0.0302, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.05, the data provides convincing evidence that the average food intake is different for the patients in the treatment group.

Add the following polynomials:
All polynomials are already ordered according to their degree (exponent), and therefore you can just add straight down in columns.
For x3: 2 + 1 - 3 = 0
For x2: -4 + 6 + 2 = 4
For x: 6 - 8 -4 = -6
Constants: -3 + 12 - 7 = 2

The answer is:
4x^2 - 6x + 2

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you first divide 81 by 18 and get 4.5, that is the number of children per adult.

next you'll divide 27 by 4.5 and 6.

that's the answer.
