-2x + 5x -2x = 1 - 7
-4x + 5x = -5
-1x = -5
Then x = 5 not 6 :)

First of all, I collect like terms by rearranging coefficient with variables to one side plus
Rules;
1. When moving a coefficient (number ) the sign changes

You can work at most 20 hours next week. You need to earn at least $90 to cover your weekly expenses. Your dog walking job pays
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the dog walking hours

y ----> the car washing hours

we know that

The system of linear inequalities is equal to

x+y\leq20 -----> inequality A

9x+10y\geq 90 -----> inequality B

Solve the system of inequalities by graphing

The solution is the shaded area

see the attached figure

Two possible combinations of hours are

(10,10) and (0,9)

<em>Verify</em>

For (10,10)

Substitute the value of x and the value of y in both inequalities

<em>Inequality A</em>

10+10\leq20

20\leq20  -----> is true

<em>Inequality B</em>

9(10)+10(10)\geq 90

190\geq 90 ----> is true

therefore

(10,10) is a possible solution

For (0.9)

Substitute the value of x and the value of y in both inequalities

<em>Inequality A</em>

0+9\leq20

9\leq20  -----> is true

<em>Inequality B</em>

9(0)+10(9)\geq 90

90\geq 90 ----> is true

therefore

(0,9) is a possible solution

An insurance company estimates 45 percent of its claims have errors. The insurance company wants to estimate with 99 percent con
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

We need a sample size of at least 657.

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.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is given by:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

45 percent of its claims have errors.

So \pi = 0.45

99% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.

What sample size is needed if they wish to be within 5 percent of the actual

This is a sample size of at least n, in which n is found when M = 0.05.

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.05 = 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.45*0.55}{n}}

0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.28

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.28}{0.05}

\sqrt{n} = 25.62

\sqrt{n}^{2} = (25.62)^{2}

n = 656.4

We need a sample size of at least 657.
