The 2nd one is the answer because it shows Distributive Property which is a(b+c) or <span>(b+c)a.</span>
Answer:
3x+24 more widgets
Step-by-step explanation:
A company owns two manufacturing plants:
1st plant: 8x+17 widgets;2nd plant: 5x-7 widgets.
To find how many more items the first plant produces daily than the second plant, we have to subtract from the number of widgets the first plant produces the second plant produces. So,
(8x+17)-(5x-7)\\ \\=8x+17-5x+7\ [\text{Eliminate brackets}]\\ \\=(8x-5x)+(17+7)\ [\text{Combine the like terms}]\\ \\=3x+24
hope this helps!

Option 2.)
(Please correct me if I'm wrong)
The confidence interval is

. This means that we can be 99% confident that the mean number of books people read lies between 9.15 and 11.85.
To find the confidence interval, we first find the z-score associated with it:
Convert 99% to a decimal: 0.99
Subtract from 1: 1-0.99=0.01
Divide by 2: 0.01/2 = 0.005
Subtract from 1: 1-0.005 = 0.995
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this is associated with a z-score between 2.57 and 2.58. Since both are equally far from this value we will use 2.575.
We calculate the margin of error using

This means that the confidence interval is

The lower limit is given by 10.5-1.35 = 9.15.
The upper limit is given by 10.5+1.35 = 11.85
