Hey there!

-11b + 7 = 40

SUBTRACT by 7 on each of your sides.

-11b + 7 - 7 = 40 - 7

Cancel out: 7 - 7 because that gives you 0

Keep: 40 - 7 because it helps us solve for our answer

40 - 7 = 33

DIVIDE both sides by -11

11b/-11 = 33/-11

Cancel out: -11b/-11 because it equals 1

Keep: 33/-11 because it gives you -3

33/-11 = 33 ÷ -11 = 3

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:

$b = -3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 7 from both sides

$-11b + 7 - 7 = 40 - 7$

$-11b = 33$

Step 2: Divide both sides by -11

$-11b / -11 = 33 / -11$

$b = -3$

Answer: $b = -3$

A researcher examines 27 water samples for iron concentration. The mean iron concentration for the sample data is 0.802 cc/cubic

Delvig [45]

Answer:

90% confidence interval for the population mean iron concentration is [0.771 , 0.832].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher examines 27 water samples for iron concentration. The mean iron concentration for the sample data is 0.802 cc/cubic meter with a standard deviation of 0.093.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 90% confidence interval for the population mean iron concentration is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean iron concentration = 0.802 cc/cubic meter

s = sample standard deviation = 0.093

n = number of water samples = 27

$\mu$ = population mean

Here for constructing 90% confidence interval we have used t statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 90% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-1.706 < $t_2_6$ < 1.706) = 0.90 {As the critical value of t at 26 degree of

freedom are -1.706 & 1.706 with P = 5%}

P(-1.706 < $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 1.706) = 0.90

P( $-1.706 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X - \mu}$ < $1.706 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.90

P( $\bar X -1.706 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X +1.706 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ ) = 0.90

90% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X -1.706 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ , $\bar X +1.706 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$ ]

= [ $0.802 -1.706 \times {\frac{0.093}{\sqrt{27} }$ , $0.802 +1.706 \times {\frac{0.093}{\sqrt{27} }$ ]

= [0.771 , 0.832]

Therefore, 90% confidence interval for the population mean iron concentration is [0.771 , 0.832].

Allen's daily regular wage is P1,420. This coming Christmas, his boss is asking him to work for 14 hours. How much is his DAILY

VMariaS [17]

Using proportions, it is found that his DAILY RATE on that particular day is of Php 2,420 .

This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

In a regular 8-hour day, Allen earns Php 1420. How much will he earn on a 14 hour day?

The rule of three is:

8 hours - Php 1420

14 hours - x

Applying cross multiplication:

$8x = 1420 \times 14$

$x = \frac{1420 \times 14}{8}$

$x = 2485$

The closest option is Php 2,420.
