Start by distributing the 8: 
-160=22+(8)(3p)+(8)(-4)

Now we have:
-160=22+24p-32


Combine like terms: 
-160=(24p)+(22-32)


Now we have:
-160=24p-10


Add 10 to both sides:
24p-10+10=-160+10


Now we have:
24p=-150


Divide both sides by 24: 
24p/24=-150/24

Final answer: p=-25/4

-160=22+8(3p-4)
Use distributive property
-160=22+24p-32
-160=24p-10
Add 10 for both side
-160+10=24p-10+10
-150=24p
Divided 24 for both side
-150/24=24p/24
p=-6.25
Check:
-160=22+8(3p+4)
-160=22+8[3(-6.25)-4]
-160=22+8(-18.75-4)
-160=22+8(-22.75)
-160=22-182
-160=-160. As a result, x=-6.25. Hope it help!

A combo meal and a salad cost $12
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The cost of a combo meal is $8 and a salad is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to form simultaneous equations with the given informations. Let combo meal be m and salad is s :

m + s = 12 -  -  - (1)

2m + s = 20 -  -  -  (2)

Next, you have to solve these equations :

(2) - (1)

2m + s - m - s = 20 - 12

m = 8

sub  \: \: m = 8  \: \: into \:  \: (1)

(1)⇒

8 + s = 12

s = 4

stich3 [128]

Answer:   -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

you can use slope formula to solve this question. (Y1-Y2)/(X1-X2). So the answer to this question should be (0-4)/(5-0)=  -4/5

Given six consecutive integers with a sum of seven times the
Furkat [3]

Answer:

<em>x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 + x + 5 + x + 6 = 7(x + 1)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

The situation can be written as an algebraic equation by setting the variables as follows:

x = first integer

x + 1 = second integer

x + 2 = third integer

x + 3 = fourth integer

x + 4 = fifth integer

x + 5 = sixth (and last) integer

The sum of all six numbers must be equal to 7 times the second number, thus:

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 + x + 5 + x + 6 = 7(x + 1)

The overhead reach distances of adult females are normally distributed with a mean of 205 cm and a standard deviation of 8.3 cm.
Gre4nikov [31]

a. Find the probability that an individual distance is greater than 214.30 cm

We find for the value of z score using the formula:

z = (x – u) / s

z = (214.30 – 205) / 8.3

z = 1.12

Since we are looking for x > 214.30 cm, we use the right tailed test to find for P at z = 1.12 from the tables:

P = 0.1314

 

b. Find the probability that the mean for 20 randomly selected distances is greater than 202.80 cm

We find for the value of z score using the formula:

z = (x – u) / s

z = (202.80 – 205) / 8.3

z = -0.265

Since we are looking for x > 202.80 cm, we use the right tailed test to find for P at z = -0.265 from the tables:

P = 0.6045

 

c. Why can the normal distribution be used in part (b), even though the sample size does not exceed 30?

I believe this is because we are given the population standard deviation sigma rather than the sample standard deviation. So we can use the z test.
