Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2)

Distributive property

1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9

1.5x + 3 = 4.5x - 9

1.5x - 4.5x = -9 -3

-3x = -12

  x = 4

Expand

1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9

Simplify 1.5x + 6 - 3 to 1.5x + 3

1.5x + 3 = 4.5x - 9

Subtract 1.5x from both sideds

3 = 4.5x - 9 - 1.5x

Simplify 4.5x - 9 - 1.5x to 3x - 9

3 = 3x - 9

Add 9 to both sides

3 + 9 = 3x

Simplify 3 + 9 to 12

12 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

12/3 = x

Simplify 12/3 to 4

4 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = 4</u>

Based on the data set shown, which of the following is a true statement?
timama [110]

Answer:

mean = mode

Step-by-step explanation:

To make this easier, let's find the mean, median, and mode.

Mean: Sum of a set of numbers divided by number of terms

Median: Middle number of data when data is in numerical order

Mode: Number that occurs most often in data

To find the mean, add all the values together. -1 - 1 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 = 11. Now, divide by the number of terms, which is 11. 11/11 = 1. The mean is 1.

To find the median, look at the number in the middle of the data. -1, -1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3. The median is 1.

To find the mode, look at the number that occurs most often. There are 4 1's, so the mode is 1.

Since all numbers are equal, the only possible answer is the first option.

-2(x+1)+6x&lt;-14<br>I need help​
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

x<-3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x+1)+6x<-14

Distribute

-2x-2 + 6x < -14

Combine like terms

4x -2 < -14

Add 2 to each side

4x-2+2 < -14+2

4x < -12

Divide by 4

4x/4 < -12/4

x<-3

Which of the following relations are not functions? Select all that apply.  {(1, 3), (3, 7), (5, 11), (7, 15), (9, 19)}  {(1,
zavuch27 [327]

Given:

7 relations are given.

To find:

The relation which is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is called function if there exist unique output for each input.

It means, each x-value has only one y-value.

{(1, 3), (3, 7), (5, 11), (7, 15), (9, 19)}, it is a function.

{(1, 3), (1, 7), (5, 11), (5, 15), (9, 19)}, it is not a function because there exist two y-values y=3 and y=7 at x=1.

{(−2, 4), (−1, 1), (0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 4)}, it is a function.

{(2, 4), (1, 1), (0, 0), (1,−1), (2, −4)},it is not a function because there exist two y-values y=4 and y=-4 at x=2.

{(6, 3), (4, 1), (2, 1), (0,−1), (−2,−3)}, it is a function.

{(1, 3), (3, 7), (3, 11), (7, 15), (9, 19)}, it is not a function because there exist two y-values y=7 and y=11 at x=3.

{(1, 3), (3, 7), (5, 11), (9, 15), (9, 19)}, it is not a function because there exist two y-values y=15 and y=19 at x=9.

Therefore, the correct options are 2, 4, 6 and 7.

18. A set of data has a sample mean of 65.4 and a standard deviation of 1.2. If the sample size is 45, what is the 99% confidenc
Agata [3.3K]

Given:

Sample mean = 65.4

Standard deviation = 1.2

Sample size = 45

Confidence level = 99%

To find:

The confidence interval.

Solution:

The formula for confidence interval is

CI=\overline{x}\pm z^*\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

where, \overline{x} is sample mean, z* is confidence value, s is standard deviation and n is sample size.

Confidence value or z-value at 99% = 2.58

Putting the given in the above formula, we get

CI=65.4\pm 2.58\times \dfrac{1.2}{\sqrt{45}}

CI=65.4\pm 0.46

CI=65.4-0.46\text{ and }CI=65.4+0.46

CI=64.94\text{ and }65.86

Therefore, the correct option is D.
