Answer:

Subtract property of deviation becasue your subtracting 6y frrom both sides of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)Given: 12y - 40 - 4y = 6y - 18

2)Simplify by adding 12y + (-4y): 8y - 40 = 6y - 18

3)Subtract property of deviation: 8y -6y - 40 = 6y -6y - 18

2y - 40 = -18

Which table represents a direct variation? Table A x 4 6 8 10 y 7 9 11 13 Table B x 4 6 8 10 y 12 18 24 30 Table C x 4 6 8 10 y

Greeley [361]

Answer:

We conclude that 'Table B' represents a direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when y varies directly with x, the equation is

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called the constant of proportionality.

Table A

x 4 6 8 10

y 7 9 11 13

Finding k for all the pairs of x and y

k = y/x

k = 7/4, k = 9/6 = 3/2, k = 11 / 8, k = 13/11

As constant of proportionality 'k' does not remain constant.

Hence, table A does not represent a direct variation

Table B

x 4 6 8 10

y 12 18 24 30

Finding k all the pairs of x and y

k = y/x

k = 12/4 = 3, k = 18/6 = 3, k = 24/8 = 3, k = 30/10 = 3

As the constant of proportionality remains constant.

Therefore, the value of k = 3 for all the points in the table.

Hence, table B represents a direct variation.

Table C

x 4 6 8 10

y 1 3 5 7

Finding k all the pairs of x and y

k = y/x

k = 1/4, k = 3/6 = 1/2, k = 5/8, k = 7/10

As the constant of proportionality 'k' does not remain constant.

Hence, table C does not represent a direct variation.

Table D

x 4 6 8 10

y 3 3 3 3

Finding k all the pairs of x and y

k = y/x

k = 3/4, k = 3/6, k = 3/8, k = 3/10

As the constant of proportionality 'k' does not remain constant.

Hence, table D does not a direct variation.

Therefore, we conclude that 'Table B' represents a direct variation.

Ronald measured a house and its lot and made a scale drawing. The front patio, which is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millim

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

2 metre= 1millimetre

Step-by-step explanation:

From the measurement of the house The front patio, is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millimeters wide in the drawing

Real life= 14 meters

Drawing= 7 millimeters,

The scale he used is 2 metre= 1millimetre

Which means he magnify the drawing by scale of 2 metre to get the real life structure.

✓Let us clarify it

14 meters = 7 millimeters

2 metre= x millimeter

If we cross multiply

7 millimeters× 2 metre= 14 metre × X millimeters

Make X subject of the formula we have

X= 1millimetres

You recently sent out a survey to determine if the percentage of adults who use social media has changed from 66%, which was the

il63 [147K]

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who use social media is (0.56, 0.6034).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

Of the 2809 people who responded to survey, 1634 stated that they currently use social media.

This means that $n = 2809, \pi = \frac{1634}{2809} = 0.5817$

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.327$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.5817 - 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5817*4183}{2809}} = 0.56$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.5817 + 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5817*4183}{2809}} = 0.6034$

The 98% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who use social media is (0.56, 0.6034).
