X+24*(1/x)=11
x+24/x=11
x²+24=11x
x²-11x+24=0
(x+3)(x-8)=0
x=-3, x=8
checking : 8+24*(1/8)=11, 8+3=11 correct
-3+24*(1/-3)=-3-8=-11 incorrect
number is 8, reciprocal is 1/8

Answer:

2.083 < µ1 - µ2 < 5.917  

Step-by-step explanation:

We will need to construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference of 2 means where the populations are normally distributed, and their variances are equal.

The calculations of the sample means and standard deviations are done for us.

Sample 1: Catalyst 1

n = 12, x = 85, s = 4

Sample 2:  Catalyst 2

n = 10, x = 81, s = 5

See attached photo for the construction of the confidence interval...

Please solve for x. I need this answered.
spin [16.1K]

2.5x - 3 + 2x = 1.75x - 1.25x + 13

4.5x - 3 = 0.50x + 13

4.0x = 16

x = 4

Answer: 4

2. We'll assume those xs are in the numerator

(3/7)x - 1/4 + (3/7)x = (9/7)x - (3/7)x + 3/4 - 1

(6/7)x - 1/4 = (6/7)x  - 1/4

0 = 0

That's always true.

Answer: Any x is a solution.
