The proportion that solves for the distance between D and E is  x/15 = 6/9

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Triangle ABC and CDE are similar triangles, hence the ratio of their corresponding sides are in the same proportion.

Hence:

x/15 = 6/9

The proportion that solves for the distance between D and E is  x/15 = 6/9

translate this into an expression: the quotient of a number, x, and 8, could you please explain it to me?​
Xelga [282]

Answer:

x/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we are given "the quotient of...". This means that we are dividing something/something else. If two numbers are given in the phrase "something and something else", the first number given will be the something, and the second number will be the something else.

The first number listed is x. Therefore, we have

x/something else.

Next, we are given "and 8", so we have x/8 as our expression

Answer: a) margin of error = 61.25, b) sample size when margin of error is 45 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The formulae to get the margin of error of a confidence interval is given as

Margin of error = critical value * (σ/√n)

Where σ = population standard deviation = 125

n = sample size = 16

Critical value =Zα/2 = 1.96 ( this is so because we are performing a 95% confidence level test then level of significance (α) will be 5% and since our test is of two values, it will be 2 tailed).

Margin of error = 1.96 * (125/√16)

Margin of error = 1.96 * 125/4

Margin of error = 1.96 * 31.25

Margin of error = 61.25

Question b)

Margin of error = 45

Critical value =Zα/2 = 1.96

Population standard deviation = σ = 125

Sample size =n =??

By recalling the formulae

Margin of error = critical value * (σ/√n)

45 = 1.96 * (125/√n)

45 = (1.96 * 125)/√n

45 = 245/√n

45 * √n = 245

√n = 245/ 45

√n = 5.444

n = (5.444)²

n= 29.64 which is approximately 30.

The mechanic charges $90 for a vehicle inspection plus an additional $35 per hour. If the mechanic works for 8 hours, what will
kvasek [131]

Answer:

$370

Step-by-step explanation:

You already have 90 dollars so we can put that to the side for right now

If you're charged $35 at an hourly rate for 8 hours then you have to multiply the two together

30 x 8 = 240

5 x 8=40

240 + 40=280

Now is when your $90 dollars comes in. Now just add the two together and you'll end up with your final answer

280+90=370
