Answer:
51
Step-by-step explanation:
4% as a decimal is 0.04, so you can just do 0.04 * 1275 = 51.
4/7m = 2/7(2m + 1)
4/7m = 4/7m + 2/7
4/7m - 4/7m = 2/7
0 = 2/7 (incorrect)

Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
2[x + 4] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x
Reorder the terms:
2[4 + x] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x
[4 * 2 + x * 2] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x
[8 + 2x] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x
8 + 2x = [-8 * 2 + -1x * 2] + -2x
8 + 2x = [-16 + -2x] + -2x
Combine like terms: -2x + -2x = -4x
8 + 2x = -16 + -4x
Solving
8 + 2x = -16 + -4x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '4x' to each side of the equation.
8 + 2x + 4x = -16 + -4x + 4x
Combine like terms: 2x + 4x = 6x
8 + 6x = -16 + -4x + 4x
Combine like terms: -4x + 4x = 0
8 + 6x = -16 + 0
8 + 6x = -16
Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + 6x = -16 + -8
Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + 6x = -16 + -8
6x = -16 + -8
Combine like terms: -16 + -8 = -24
6x = -24
Divide each side by '6'.
x = -4
Simplifying
x = -4
Average systolic blood pressure = x = 130
Standard deviation = s = 6
We are to find interval that represents the systolic blood pressure of middle 99.7% of the males.
According to the empirical rule:
a) 68% values lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean
b) 95% values lie within 2 standard deviation of the mean
c) 99.7% values lie within 3 standard deviation of the mean
So, 99.7% value will lie within 3 standard deviations from the mean.
We can express this range as:
( x - 3s, x + 3s)
= (130 - 3(6), 130 +3(6))
= ( 130 - 18, 130 + 18)
= ( 112, 148 )
Thus the interval from 112 to 148 contains the systolic blood pressure of middle 99.7% of the males in the certain town
