The answer is A. x=4.

Start off by distributing the parentheses into the equation.

4x+2(x+6)=36

4x+2x+12=26

Combine like terms.

4x+2x=6x

6x+12=36

Now solve the equation as normal. Begin by subtracting 12 from both sides to isolate the variable.

6x+12=36

-12 -12

---------------

6x = 24

Divide 6 on both sides to find x.

6x=24

---- -----

6 6

x=4

The solution to the equation is 4.

X=4

4x+2x+12=36
6x+12=36
6x=36-12
6x=24

Answer:

Confidence Interval: (21596,46428)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data set:

10520, 56910, 52454, 17902, 25914, 56607, 21861, 25039, 25983, 46929

Formula:

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

$Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}$

$Mean =\displaystyle\frac{340119}{10} = 34011.9$

Sum of squares of differences = 551869365.6 + 524322983.6 + 340111052.4 + 259528878 + 65575984.41 + 510538544 + 147644370.8 + 80512934.41 + 64463235.21 + 166851472.4 = 2711418821

$S.D = \sqrt{\frac{2711418821}{9}} = 17357.09$

Confidence interval:

$\mu \pm t_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Putting the values, we get,

$t_{critical}\text{ at degree of freedom 9 and}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 2.2621$

$34011.9 \pm 2.2621(\frac{17357.09}{\sqrt{10}} ) = 34011.9 \pm 12416.20 = (21595.7,46428.1) \approx (21596,46428)$

I=prt,for p please show step by step for this variable

Bond [772]

Answer:

$p = \dfrac{I}{rt}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I = prt

Switch sides.

prt = I

We are solving for p. We want p alone on the left side. p is being multiplied by r and t, so we divide both sides by r and t.

$\dfrac{prt}{rt} = \dfrac{I}{rt}$

$p = \dfrac{I}{rt}$

What is the smallest value in the stem and leaf plot below?

Alexeev081 [22]

Listing the data from the Stem and Leaves table as raw data we have:

02, 03, 03, 07, 10, 10, 17, 34, 34, 35, 35

Hence the smallest value is 02 = 2

Answer: A
