1 answer:

3 0

Simplifying
5x + 2(8x + -9) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
5x + 2(-9 + 8x) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)
5x + (-9 * 2 + 8x * 2) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)
5x + (-18 + 16x) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 5x + 16x = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Combine like terms: 5x + 16x = 21x
-18 + 21x = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 3(4 + x) + -5(2x + 7)
-18 + 21x = (4 * 3 + x * 3) + -5(2x + 7)
-18 + 21x = (12 + 3x) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + -5(7 + 2x)
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + (7 * -5 + 2x * -5)
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + (-35 + -10x)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 12 + -35 + 3x + -10x

Combine like terms: 12 + -35 = -23
-18 + 21x = -23 + 3x + -10x

Combine like terms: 3x + -10x = -7x
-18 + 21x = -23 + -7x

Solving
-18 + 21x = -23 + -7x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '7x' to each side of the equation.
-18 + 21x + 7x = -23 + -7x + 7x

Combine like terms: 21x + 7x = 28x
-18 + 28x = -23 + -7x + 7x

Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
-18 + 28x = -23 + 0
-18 + 28x = -23

Add '18' to each side of the equation.
-18 + 18 + 28x = -23 + 18

Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0
0 + 28x = -23 + 18
28x = -23 + 18

Combine like terms: -23 + 18 = -5
28x = -5

Divide each side by '28'.
x = -0.1785714286

Simplifying
x = -0.1785714286

A person recently read that 84% of cat owners are women. How large a sample should the researcher take if she wishes to be 90% c

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

405

Step-by-step explanation:

To find sample size, use the following equation, where n = sample size, za/2 = the critical value, p = probability of success, q = probability of failure, and E = margin of error.

$n=\frac{(z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} })^{2} *p*q }{E^2}$

The values that are given are p = 0.84 and E = 0.03.

You can solve for the critical value which is equal to the z-score of (1 - confidence level)/2. Use the calculator function of invNorm to find the z-score. The value will given with a negative sign, but you can ignore that.

(1 - 0.9) = 0.1/2 = 0.05

invNorm(0.05, 0, 1) = 1.645

You can also solve for q which is 1 - p. For this problem q = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16

Plug the values into the equation and solve for n.

$n =\frac{(1.645)^2*0.84*0.16}{(0.03)^2}\\n= 404.0997333$

Round up to the next number, giving you 405.
