To solve for X you need to simplify both sides on the equation 
<span><span><span>23</span><span>(<span><span>4x</span>−5</span>)</span></span>=8

</span><span><span><span><span>(<span>23</span>)</span><span>(<span>4x</span>)</span></span>+<span><span>(<span>23</span>)</span><span>(<span>−5</span>)</span></span></span>=8 *</span>Distribute*

<span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>+<span><span>−10/</span>3</span></span>=<span>8

after that you add 10/3 on both sides 

</span></span><span><span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>+<span><span>−10/</span>3</span></span>+10/3</span>=<span>8+10/3</span></span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>=<span>34/<span>3

finally multiply 3/8 on both sides 
</span></span></span><span><span>(<span>3/8</span>) x </span><span>(<span><span>8/3</span>x</span>)</span></span>=<span><span>(<span>3/8</span>) x </span><span>(<span>34/3</span><span>)

and your answer should be 
X= 17/4

Papessa [141]

Answer: 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions would be (1.31, 1.39).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of alluvial wells = 349

Number of quaternary wells = 143

Number of alluvial wells that had concentrations above 0.1 = 182

Number of quaternary wells that had concentrations above 0.1 = 112

Average of alluvial wells = 0.27

Standard deviation = 0.4

Average of quaternary wells = 1.62

Standard deviation =1.70

So, 95% confidence interval gives

alpha = 5% level of significance.

\dfrac{\alpha}{2}=2.5\%\\\\z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=1.96

So, 95% confidence interval becomes,

(1.62-0.27)\pm 1.96\sqrt{\dfrac{0.4^2}{349}+\dfrac{1.7^2}{143}}\\\\=1.35\pm 1.96\times 0.020\\\\=(1.35-0.040,1.35+0.040)\\\\=(1.31,1.39)

Hence, 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions would be (1.31, 1.39).

The data set 80, 84, 79, 44, 87, 73, 89, 90, 82, 89, 93, 97, 77, and 71 is graphed below. A graph shows the horizontal axis labe
guajiro [1.7K]

Based on the information given, it can be deduced that the distribution is a skewed distribution and the best choice is a median.

<h3>How to calculate the mean.</h3>

The mean will be:

= (80 + 84 + 79 + 44 + 87 + 73 + 89 + 90 + 82 + 89 + 93 + 97 + 77 + 71) / 14

= 1135/14

= 81.07

The median will be the middle number after the numbers are arranged in ascending order. This will be:

44, 71, 73, 77, 79, 80, 82, 84, 87, 89, 89, 90, 93, and 97. Therefore, the median will be:

= (82 + 84) / 2

= 83

Lastly, the measure of center that is the best choice for this data set is median.
