Answer:

2±√13

Step-by-step explanation:

9/x=x-4

x² -4x - 9=0

x² -4x +4- 13=0

(x -2)²=13

x-2= ±√13

x= 2±√13

The cost, C dollars, of hiring a taxi is given by the formula C=2.00+320n, where n is the number of tenths of a mile driven. Wha
Ainat [17]

Answer:

$14.80

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant to put 3.20 since $320 a mile would be ridiculous.

C(n)=2.00+3.20n

If n = 4 miles we have:

C(4)=2+3.20(4)

C(4)=2+12.80

C(4)=14.80

So the cost of the taxi is $14.80.

Brent is a researcher for a food company. He is on a team creating a reduced-calorie version of its flagship cracker. The team w
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The research team created a cracker with fewer calories. The average content of calories of the new crackers per serving of 6 should be less than 60.

To test it a random sample of 26 samples of the new cracker was taken and the calories per serving were measured.

Then the study variable is

X: calories of a 6 serve sample of the new reduced-calorie version. (cal)

The variable has a normal distribution with a population standard deviation of 0.82 cal.

To test the claim that the new crackers have on average less than 60 calories, the parameter of interest is the population mean (μ) and the hypotheses are:

H₀: μ ≥ 60

H₁: μ < 60

α: 0.01

Since the variable has a normal distribution and the population variance is known, the best statistic to use to conduct the test is a Standard Normal

Z= \frac{(X[bar]-Mu)}{\frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n}}  } ~N(0;1)

This test is one tailed to the left, wich means that the null hypothesis will be rejected at low levels of the statistic.

Z_{\alpha } = Z_{0.01} = -2.334

If Z ≤ -2.334, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

If Z > -2.334, the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Using the data of the sample I've calculated the sample mean.

X[bar]= ∑X/n= 1548.61/26= 59.56 cal

Z_{H_0}= \frac{(59.56-60)}{\frac{0.82}{\sqrt{26} } } = -2.736

The observed Z value is less than the critical value, so the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

At a level of significance of 1%, you can conclude that the population mean of calories of the samples of new crackers is less than 60 cal.

I hope it helps!

Josiah is taking his friends to the movies. Each ticket costs $10, and popcorn is $5 a bag. There is a $3 service fee for the en
gregori [183]
<span>Each ticket costs $10. He bought "x" tickets. Ticket cost = 10*x
Each bag of popcorn costs $5.
He bought "y" bags of popcorn.
Popcorn cost = 5*y Service fee: $3
Total cost = 10x + 5y + 3 <= $75 is the inequality.
10x + 5y <= 72
If x = 4,
then 40 + 5y <= 72
5y <= 32
y <= 6.4
So y = 6 bags of popcorn.</span>

Kendra used these steps to solve the equation 2x + 5 = 3 + 2(x + 1). Which choice describes the meaning of her result, 5 = 5?
alekssr [168]
The answer is A.
 If a redundant conclusion is reached in basic algebra this states that the variable holds all possible real values. 
If you algebraically solve Kendra's you do achieve the true statement 5 = 5 (leaving out D). And if you test any value of x for the equation it does hold true (getting rid of B). 
Hopefully this makes sense.
