Answer:

Equation C. 5.1 + 2y + 1.2 = -2 + 2y + 8.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation C is the only equation in the list in which the terms that contain the unknown "y" on each side of the equal sign are identical, therefore when solving for this unknown and trying to group them on one side, they go away, leaving us with a relationship among numerical values that is always true:

5.1 + 2y + 1.2 = -2 + 2y + 8.3

5.1 + 1.2 = -2 + 8.3

6.3 = 6.3

Then this equation is true for any value of the unknown y, and y- can adopt infinite number of values, independent of which the equation will always be a true statement (giving thus infinite number of solutions).

A mechanic charged $220.28 to repair a car. The price included charges for 3 hours of labor and $126.53 for parts. How much does

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

$31.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation.

$220. 28 - total

$126.53 - cost for parts

3 - # of hours

? - price per hour

3h + $126.53 = $220.28

Subtract $126.53 from both sides.

3h = $93.75

Divide by 3.

h = $31.25

The mechanic charges $31.25 per hour for labor.

Hope that helps.

Answer:

A sample size of 345 is needed so that the confidence interval will have a margin of error of 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
