Answer:
-7/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(6−4)=3(6+2)
2(6x-4)=3(6x+2)
Solve
1
Distribute
2(6−4)=3(6+2)
{\color{#c92786}{2(6x-4)}}=3(6x+2)
12−8=3(6+2)
{\color{#c92786}{12x-8}}=3(6x+2)
2
Distribute
12−8=3(6+2)
12x-8={\color{#c92786}{3(6x+2)}}
12−8=18+6
12x-8={\color{#c92786}{18x+6}}
3
Add
8
8
to both sides of the equation
12−8=18+6
12x-8=18x+6
12−8+8=18+6+8
12x-8+{\color{#c92786}{8}}=18x+6+{\color{#c92786}{8}}

Solution
=−7/3
i would start by simplifying the equation to get y by itself, you don't need to do this, but it makes it a little easier
y + 2 = 3 ( x + 4) distribute the 3 through the parenthesis
y + 2 = 3x + 12. subtract 2 from both sides
y = 3x +10
now to fill in the chart simply plug in the value of x to see what value of y it produces
y = 3(-2) +10
y = -6+10
y = 4
(-2,4)
y = 3(0) + 10
y = 0 + 10
y = 10
(0,10)
y = 3(2)+10
y = 6 + 10
y = 16
(2,16)
y = 3(4) + 10
y = 12 + 10
y = 22

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval is of $99,002.
<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>
The confidence interval is:
In which:
is the sample mean.
is the standard deviation for the population.
In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence
, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 
, so the critical value is z = 1.96.
The other parameters are given as follows:
Hence, the lower bound of the interval is:
The lower limit of the 95% confidence interval is of $99,002.

Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2| x - 3 | + 5 = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
2| x - 3 | = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
| x - 3 | = 6
The absolute value function always returns a positive value but the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
x - 3 = 6 OR -( x - 3) = 6
x - 3 = 6 ( add 3 to both sides )
x = 9
OR
-( x - 3) = 6 ← distribute left side
- x + 3 = 6 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
- x = 3 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 3
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
x = 9 → 2|9 - 3| + 5 = 2|6| + 5 = (2 × 6) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17 ← True
x = - 3 → 2|- 3 - 3| + 5 = 2| - 6 | + 5 = (2 × 6) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17 ← True
Hence x = 9 or x = - 3 are the solutions → a
