Answer:

A) 2k+4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for terms of x, we need to. she sure that x is on its own side while every other term is on the other side.

To start, we will cross multiply. If we have a/b=c/d, then ad=bc

We can perform the same calculation here,

6/x=3/(k+2)

6(k+2)=3x

Divide both sides by 3

2(k+2)=x

x=2k+4

Which one of the following is not closed under the operation being performed

Sergeu [11.5K]

Remember that polynomials are closed under addition, subtraction, and multiplication, but they are not closed under division. The only division you have there is B; therefore the correct answer is B.

A. $(14x-2)3(x-2)=14 x^{2} -90x+10$ . The result is still a polynomial; therefore, answer A is incorrect.

B. $\frac{(14x-2)}{3(x-2)} = \frac{14}{3}$ with a remainder of 26. The result is not a polynomial anymore; therefore, B is the correct answer.

C. $(14x-2)+3(x+2)=17x+4$ . The result is still a polynomial; therefore, answer C is incorrect.

D. $(14x-2)+3(x+2)=17x+4$ . The result is still a polynomial; therefore, answer D is incorrect.

Suppose that at a state college, a random sample of 41 students is drawn, and each of the 41 students in the sample is asked to

ra1l [238]

Answer:

The confidence interval for 90% confidence would be narrower than the 95% confidence

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 41

For a 95% confidence the level of significance is $\alpha = [100 - 95]\% = 0.05$ and

the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is $Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.05 }{2} }= 1.96$

For a 90% confidence the level of significance is $\alpha = [100 - 90]\% = 0.10$ and

the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is $Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.10 }{2} }= 1.645$

So we see with decreasing confidence level the critical value decrease

Now the margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$

given that other values are constant and only $Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$ is varying we have that

$E\ \ \alpha \ \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$

Hence for reducing confidence level the margin of error will be reducing

The confidence interval is mathematically represented as

$\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E$

Now looking at the above formula and information that we have deduced so far we can infer that as the confidence level reduces , the critical value reduces, the margin of error reduces and the confidence interval becomes narrower

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

11.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both equations by 100:

19.99=1999

8.79=879

1999-879=1120

Divide by 100:

1120/100=11.20 saved ................
