Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 (10x + 15) = 26

Distribute the 2/5

4x + 6 = 26

4x = 20

x = 5

Answer:

x = 5 thus B) is the Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(2 (10 x + 15))/5 = 26

Multiply both sides of (2 (10 x + 15))/5 = 26 by 5/2:

(5×2 (10 x + 15))/(2×5) = 5/2×26

5/2×26 = (5×26)/2:

(5×2 (10 x + 15))/(2×5) = (5×26)/2

(5×2 (10 x + 15))/(2×5) = (2×5)/(2×5)×(10 x + 15) = 10 x + 15:

10 x + 15 = (5×26)/2

10 x + 15 = 5×13

5×13 = 65:

10 x + 15 = 65

Subtract 15 from both sides:

10 x + (15 - 15) = 65 - 15

15 - 15 = 0:

10 x = 65 - 15

65 - 15 = 50:

10 x = 50

Divide both sides of 10 x = 50 by 10:

(10 x)/10 = 50/10

10/10 = 1:

x = 50/10

The gcd of 50 and 10 is 10, so 50/10 = (10×5)/(10×1) = 10/10×5 = 5:

Answer: x = 5

For a recent year, the following are the numbers of homicides that occurred each month in New York City: 38, 30, 46, 40, 46,

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Each month is equally likely

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for a recent year, the following are the numbers of homicides that occurred each month in New York City:

38, 30, 46, 40, 46, 49, 47, 50, 50, 42, 37, 37.

We have to check whether it is equally likely for each of the 12 months

Set Hypotheses as

H0: All months are equally likely

Ha: atleast two months are not equally likely

(Two tailed chisquare test at 5% significance level)

This is a test for chi square goodness of fit and so assuming H0 to be true

we divide the total equaly among 12 months as expected

Observed Expected Chi square

Dec 37 42.66666667 0.752604167

Total 512 512 10.375

df=11

p value = 0.497

Since p >0.05 our alpha we accept H0

Each month is equally likely

Molly was on a long 136 mile road trip. The first part of the trip there was lots of traffic, she only averaged 16 mph. The seco

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

In traffic, she drove for 3 hours

and After the traffic cleared she drove for 2 hours.

Explanation:

Given that the road trip was 136 miles;

$d=136$

The first part of the trip there was lots of traffic, she only averaged 16 mph;

$v_1=16$

The second part of the trip there was no traffic so she could drive 44 mph;

$v_2=44$

She traveled for a total of 5 hours;

$t=5$

let x represent the time in traffic when she traveled at 16 mph

$t_1=x$

the time the traffic is clear would be;

$t_2=t-t_1=5-x$

Recall that distance equals speed multiply by time;

$d=v_1t_1_{}_{}^{}+v_2t_2$

substituting the values;

$136=16x+44(5-x)$

solving for x;

$\begin{gathered} 136=16x+220-44x \\ 44x-16x=220-136 \\ 28x=84 \\ x=\frac{84}{28} \\ x=3 \end{gathered}$

So;

$\begin{gathered} t_1=3\text{ hours} \\ t_2=5-x=5-3=2 \\ t_2=2\text{ hours} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, In traffic, she drove for 3 hours

and After the traffic cleared she drove for 2 hours.
