How many solutions can be found for the linear equation? 3(x+4)=3x+4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]3 years ago

Hi there! The answer is 0 solutions.

3(x + 4) = 3x + 4
First we need to work out the parenthesis (for instance possible by using rainbow technique).

3x + 12 = 3x + 4
Now subtract 12.

3x = 3x  - 8
Now we can see that the right side of the equation is always 8 smaller than the left side of the equation. Because the right is always smaller, this equation cannot be solved. Therefore there are no solutions to this equation. The answer is 0 solutions.

Suppose the standard deviation of a normal population is known to be 3, and H0 asserts that the mean is equal to 12. A random sa
blagie [28]

Answer:

z=\frac{12.95-12}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{36}}}=1.9  

p_v =P(z>1.9)=0.0287  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 12 at 5% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=12.95 represent the sample mean

\sigma=3 represent the population standard deviation for the sample  

n=36 sample size  

\mu_o =12 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal to 12, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 12  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 12  

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

z=\frac{12.95-12}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{36}}}=1.9  

P-value  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>1.9)=0.0287  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 12 at 5% of signficance.

Ken has already baked 4 pies and he can bake 1 pie with each additional cup of sugar he buys. With 31 additional cups of sugar,
Bumek [7]

Answer: 35 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

Ken can bake 1 pie with each additional cup of sugar he buys. 1 pie =1 cup

4 + x = y

Where;

x= additional pies

y= total pies

If 1 cup= 1 pie; then 31 cups =

31 cup × 1 pie/1 cup = x

:. x= 31 pies

y= x + 4

y= 31+4 = 35

Solve for x when 4x+16/12=x-4
stira [4]

Answer:

In short, Your Answer would be either 1 or 7

Step-by-step explanation:

|4x + 12| = 16

As it is in modulus function, it could be either +ve or -ve

4x+12 = 16   OR   4x - 12 = 16

4x = 16-12    OR   4x = 16 + 12

4x = 4           OR   4x = 28

x = 4/4     OR  x = 28/4
