Solve the equation<br> -3x + 1 + 10x = x + 4<br> 0 x = 1/2<br> х<br> =<br> x = 12<br> X = 18
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

<h3>            x = 1/2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 1 + 10x = x + 4

      -1                  -1

        7x  = x  + 3  

       -x          -x

        6x = 3

      ÷6      ÷6

         x = 1/2

The germination rate is the rate at which plants begin to grow after the seed is planted.
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.467 -0.9}{\sqrt{\frac{0.9(1-0.9)}{15}}}=-5.59  

p_v =P(z  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of germinated seeds is significantly lower than 0.9 or 90%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=15 represent the random sample taken

X=7 represent the number of seeds germinated

\hat p=\frac{7}{15}=0.467 estimated proportion of seeds germinated

p_o=0.9 is the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion of germinated seeds is less than 0.9 or 90%.:  

Null hypothesis:p\geq 0.9  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.9  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.467 -0.9}{\sqrt{\frac{0.9(1-0.9)}{15}}}=-5.59  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level assumed is \alpha=0.05. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of germinated seeds is significantly lower than 0.9 or 90%

Which of the following would not be the result of a substitution in the following system? 2x + y = 7 y - x = 1
telo118 [61]

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The result of the substitution shown in Option A is obtained by solving for y from the first equation and substituting into the second equation:

2x + y = 7\\y=7-2x

y - x = 1\\7-2x-x=1

Therefore, this is a result of a substitution in the given system.

B) The result of the substitution shown in Option B is obtained by solving for y from the second equation and substituting into the first equation:

y - x = 1

y=x+1

2x + y = 7\\2x + x + 1 = 7

Therefore, this is a result of a substitution in the given system.

C) The result of the substitution shown in Option C is not  a result of a substitution in the given system, because if you solve for x from the second equation and substitute into the first one, you get:

y-x=1\\(-1)(-x)=(-y+1)(-1)\\x=y-1\\\\2(y - 1) + y = 7
