-5x - 3(-4x - 9) = 83
Add 5x to both sides
-3(-4x-9) = 83 + 5x
Divide by -3
-4x-9 = 83/3 + 5/3x
Subtract 5/3x
-4x -5/3x -9 = 83/3
Add 9
-17/3x = 110/3
Multiply by 3
-17x = 110
Divide by -17
X = 6 and 8/17

-5x-3(-4x -9)= 83

Distribute. 

-5x+12x+27= 83 (two negatives equal a positive) 

Combine like terms.

7x+27= 83

Subtract 27 from both sides.

7x= 56

Divide 7 into both sides.

x=8

I hope this helps!

How many students must be randomly selected to estimate the mean weekly earnings of students at one college? We want 95% confide
kari74 [83]

Answer:

The sample of students required to estimate the mean weekly earnings of students at one college is of size, 3458.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population mean (<em>μ</em>) is:

CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error of a (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population mean (<em>μ</em>) is:

MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The information provided is:

<em>σ</em> = $60

<em>MOE</em> = $2

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 95% confidence level is:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

Compute the sample size as follows:

MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

       n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma }{MOE}]^{2}

          =[\frac{1.96\times 60}{2}]^{2}

          =3457.44\\\approx 3458

Thus, the sample of students required to estimate the mean weekly earnings of students at one college is of size, 3458.
