3(x + 8) = 17....distribute the 3 thru the parenthesis
3x + 24 = 17...subtract 24 from both sides
3x = 17 - 24
3x = -7...divide both sides by 3
x = -7/3 or -2 1/3 <===

A. His answer is incorrect. 2 cubed is 2 X 2 X 2, which is 8. Add 4 and you have the answer of 12.
B. He may have multiplied 2 X 3 and then added 4, instead of multiplying 2 three times.

Which table represents a linear function?

Maslowich

Answer:

the third one

Step-by-step explanation:

You can tell if a table is linear by looking at how X and Y change. If, as X increases by 1, Y increases by a constant rate, then a table is linear. You can find the constant rate by finding the first difference

Please can i have some help, just on this question, thank you so much!

Answer:

a) 1/2 of 12 = 1/4 of 24

b) 1/3 of 90 = 2/3 of 45

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 of 16 is 6, so 6 would be 1/4 of what? 6 x 4 = 24. 6 is 1/4 of 24. The other one is the same. 1/3 of 90 is 30, and 30 is 2/3 of 45.

A sociologist develops a test to measure attitudes towards public transportation, and 27 randomly selected subjects are given th

taurus [48]

Answer:

The margin of error for the 95% confidence interval for the mean score of all such subjects is of 8.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 27 - 1 = 26

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 26 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975$ . So we have T = 2.0518

The margin of error is:

$M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

In this question:

$n = 27, s = 21.4$ . So

$M = 2.0518\frac{21.4}{\sqrt{27}}$

$M = 8.45$

The margin of error for the 95% confidence interval for the mean score of all such subjects is of 8.45.
