Question 1 of 10

3x+112=5x+100 what is the answer I don't get it

slega [8]

Reorder the terms
112 + 3x = 100 + 5x
112 + 3x + (-5x) = 100 + 5x + (-5x)

Combine the like terms
5x + (-5x) = 0
112 + (-2x) = 100 + 0
112 + (-2x) = 100

112 + (-112) + (-2x) = 100 + (-112)
Combine like terms again
112 + (-112) =0
0 + (-2x) = 100 + (-112)
100 + (-112) = (-112) = (-12)
-2x = -12
-12 / -2 = 6
x = 6 ✓

Check your work
3 * 6 + 112 = 130
5 * 6 + 110 = 130
130 = 130 ✓

National data indicates that 35% of households own a desktop computer. In a random sample of 570 households, 40% owned a deskt

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Yes, this provide enough evidence to show a difference in the proportion of households that own a desktop.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that National data indicates that 35% of households own a desktop computer.

In a random sample of 570 households, 40% owned a desktop computer.

Let p = population proportion of households who own a desktop computer

SO, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p = 25% {means that 35% of households own a desktop computer}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p $\neq$ 25% {means that % of households who own a desktop computer is different from 35%}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of 570 households who owned a desktop computer = 40%

n = sample of households = 570

So, test statistics = $\frac{0.40-0.35}{{\sqrt{\frac{0.40(1-0.40)}{570} } } } }$

= 2.437

Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance at which to test out hypothesis so we assume it to be 5%. Now at 5% significance level, the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test. Since our test statistics doesn't lies within the range of critical values of z so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that % of households who own a desktop computer is different from 35%.

A manufacturer cuts squares from the corners of a rectangular plece of sheet metal that measures 2 inches by 7 inches (see Figur

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches

The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The volume of the open-topped box is equal to

$V=LWH$

where

$L=(7-2x)\ in\\W=(2-2x)\ in\\H=x\ in$

substitute

$V=(7-2x)(2-2x)x$

Convert to expanded form

$V=(7-2x)(2-2x)x\\V=(14-14x-4x+4x^{2})x\\V=14x-14x^2-4x^2+4x^{3}\\V=4x^{3}-18x^{2} +14x$

using a graphing tool

Graph the cubic equation

Remember that

The domain for x is the interval -----> (0,1)

Because

If x>1

then

the width is negative (W=2-2x)

so

The maximum is the point (0.46,3.02)

see the attached figure

therefore

The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches

The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches

Convert y-3=(1/3)(x+1) to slope intercept form

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Slope-intercept form is $y=mx+b$ , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Here, we first need to distribute the 1/3.

$y-3= \frac{1}{3} x+\frac{1}{3}$

Next, we add 3 to both sides of the equation.

$y= \frac{1}{3} x+\frac{10}{3}$
