A. Subtraction Property of Equality
Answer:
C. 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say M is the original number of men and W is the original number of women.
M / W = 3 / 5
(M+2) / (W+1) = 2 / 3
Let's cross multiply both equations:
5M = 3W
3(M+2) = 2(W+1)
Let's simplify the second equation:
3M + 6 = 2W + 2
3M + 4 = 2W
From the first equation:
M = 3/5 W
Substitute:
3 (3/5 W) + 4 = 2W
9/5 W + 4 = 2W
4 = 1/5 W
W = 20
There were originally 20 women.
Let's check our answer. That would mean that M = 3/5 W = 12.
After 2 men walk in and 1 woman, W = 21 and M = 14, so 14/21 = 2/3. Looks like the answer is correct!
Answer C.
The answer is 1 because4 is close to 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that 33.4% of people have sleepwalked.
Sample size n =1459
Sample favourable persons = 526
Sample proportion p = 
Sample proportion p is normal for large samples with mean = 0.334 and
std error = 
a) P(526 or more of the 1459 adults have sleepwalked.)
b) Yes, because hardly 1.4% is the probability
c) 33.4 is very less compared to the average. Either sample should be improved representing the population or population mean should be increased accordingly.
Answer:
- 56
Step-by-step explanation:
The opposite of a number is its negative value
Then the opposite of 56 is - 56
