8|x+7|-3=5

Add 3 to both sides
8|x+7|=8

Divide both sides by 8
|x+7|=1

Rewrite absolute value equation as follows:
x+7=1
x+7=-1

Solve for both
x+7=1
x=-6

x+7=-1
x=-8

Final answer: x=-8, x=-6

A building inspector believes that the percentage of new construction with serious code violations may be even greater than the
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The inspector's claim has strong statistical evidence.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this we have to perform a hypothesis test.

The inspector claimed that the actual proportion of code violations is greater than 0.07, so the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \pi\leq0.07\\\\H_a: \pi>0.07

We assume a significance level of 0.05.

The sample size is 200 and the proportion of the sample is:

p=\frac{23}{200}= 0.115

The standard deviation is

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{N} }= \sqrt{\frac{0.07*0.93}{200}}=0.018

The z-value can be calculated as

z=\frac{p-\pi-0.5/N}{\sigma} =\frac{0.115-0.07-0.5/200}{0.018} =\frac{0.0425}{0.018}=2.36

The P-value for this z-value is P=0.00914.

This P-value is smaller than the significance level, so the effect is significant and the null hypothesis is rejected.

The inspector's claim has strong statistical evidence.
