Well, let's check if your inequality is true. We have to add the 3 scores up and divide them by 3 to know the average.

73 + 81 + 86 = 240
240 / 3 = 80

80%

That's true, now let's check 101.

73 + 81 + 101 = 255
255 / 3 = 85

85%

That's true.

Your inequality is correct.

Express the solution graphically of – }(2x + 1) < 3.

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The third one counting from the top.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the inequality:

(-1/3)*(2x + 1) < 3

The first thing we need to do is isolate x on one side of the inequality.

First we can by -3 in both sides of the inequality, and remember, because we are multiplying by a negative number, the inequality sign changes its direction:

(-3)*(-1/3)*(2x + 1) > 3*(-3)

(2x + 1) > -9

Now we can subtract 1 in both sides:

2*x + 1 - 1 > -9 - 1

2*x > -10

Now we can divide by 2 in both sides:

2*x/2 > -10/2

x > -5

Then we should see a number line such that all the points at the right of -5 are colored.

The correct option is the third one, counting from the top.

What is an expression to represent the equation

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

8 + $\frac{x}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you want an answer to the top section of the question.

We can start with 8.

When a problem asks for the sum, it's looking for addition, so we use the + sign.

8 +

The problem says "a number," so let's represent that with x. Basically, x just means a number we don't know.

8 + x

The "number" is divided by 4, so we'll just put x/4 as our second term.

8 + $\frac{x}{4}$

An open rectangular box with square base has a volume of 256 cubic inches. determine the equation for the volume and surface are

Serjik [45]

Let
b-----------> the length side of the square box
h------------> the height of the box
SA---------> surface area of the box

we know that
[volume of the box]=b²*h
volume=256 in³
b²*h=256-------> h=256/b²-----> equation 1

surface area of the box=area of the base+perimeter of base*height

area of the base=b²
perimeter of the base=4*b

surface area=b²+(4*b)*h------> SA=b²+4*b*h-----> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2
SA=b²+4*b*[256/b²]-----> SA=b²+1024/b-----> SA=(b³+1024)/b

the answer is

the formula of the volume of the box is V=b²*h-----> 256=b²*h

the formula of the surface area of the box are
SA=b²+4*b*h
SA=(b³+1024)/b

Is 4(4a+20b) equivalent to 16a+24b

8090 [49]

No.

When you are distributing, you are multiplying to each monomial

4(4a) = 16a

4(20b) = 80b

16a + 80b is your actual answer

hope this helps

There are 2,000 eligible voters in a precinct. A total of 500 voters are randomly selected and asked whether they plan to vote f

Ann [662]

Answer:

$0.7 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.647$

$0.7 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.753$

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.647;0.753).

So the correct answer would be:

a. 0.647 and 0.753

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

Solution to the problem

The estimated population proportion for this case is:

$\hat p = \frac{350}{500}=0.7$

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

For the 99% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2=0.005$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

$0.7 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.647$

$0.7 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{500}}=0.753$

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.647;0.753).

So the correct answer would be:

a. 0.647 and 0.753
