What is the absolute value of |5+8a|=53?

Mathematics
1 answer:
kozerog [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a = 6 or a = -58/8

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you meant to ask us to solve for a.

There are two cases to solve for:

5 + 8a = 53 or -(5 + 8a) = 53

8a = 48 or 5 + 8a = -53

a = 6 or 8a = -58

a = 6 or a = -58/8

A researcher believes that 12% of a simple random sample of adults will be able to identify a Toyota Scion by brand and model na
DochEvi [55]

Answer: 650

Step-by-step explanation:

When prior estimate of population proportion is known , then the formula to find the required sample size is given by :-

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2

, where p= population proportion

E= margin of error

z* = Critical value.

Let p be the proportion of adults able to identify a Toyota Scion by brand and model name.

As per given , we have

p = 12%= 0.12

E= 2.5%=0.025

Critical value for 95% confidence interval : z* = 1.960  [By z-table ]

Then, the required sample size = n=(0.12)(1-(0.12))(\dfrac{1.96}{0.025})^2

n=(0.1056)(78.4)^2

n=(0.1056)(6146.56)

n=649.076736\approx650

Thus , the required sample size = 650

The amphitheater has two types of tickets available, reserved seats and lawn seats. The maximum capacity of the venue is 20,000
Tema [17]

Let the number of reserved tickets = x

Let the number of lawn seats = y

Constraint functions:

Maximum capacity means x+y\leq 20000

For concert to be held x+y\geq 5000

lawn seats\leq reserved means y\leq x

Objective functions :

Maximum profit equation p = 65x +40y

Intersection points :

(10000,10000) (20000,0)(2500,2500)(5000,0)

p at (10000,10000) = 65(10000) + 40(10000) = $1050000

p at (20000,0) = 65(20000) + 40(0) = $1300000

p at (2500,2500) = 65(2500) + 40(2500) = $262500

p at (5000,0) = 65(5000) + 40(0) =  $325000

Hence maximum profit occurs when all 20000 reserved seats are sold and the profit is $1300000

Please find attached the graph of it.

if you want to buy a shirt that cost 18.99 but you have 20% off coupon and the tax is 7%. how much does the shirt cost
dusya [7]

20% off means you pay 80% of the price so you multiply by 0.8, and 7% tax means you multiply by 1.07

Resulting cost = 18.99*0.8*1.07 = 16.26

Hope this helps let me know if im wrong!
