Answer: 24 : 8   <em>or   </em>24 to 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adults be x

3/1 = 24/x .     We have to do cross multiplication,

24 = 3x

 x = 8

Solve for z<br> 4/z =<br> 12/5 <br> what is z
Verdich [7]

Answer:

5/3      = z

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use proportions to figure this out.

Imma solve this as I work through it.

So

4/z is equal to 12/5. So you can do something called the butterfly method (I have never used this before, but it works tho) and the method involves only multiplication and division.

Lemme clean this up for ya

The butterfly method involves multiplying in a cross format on both sides, so the

4                       12

__        =      ______

z                          5

becomes 4 times 5, and z times 12.

4 times 5 is 20, and z times 12 is 12z

so you now have 20 = 12z

Lets simplify the equation by dividing by 4s

20 divided by 4 is 5 and 12z divided by 4 is 3z

so

5 = 3z

You can divide again

by dividing both sides

by

3

to get the unit rate of z.

It will be a fraction though

and it won't look pretty

but here it is:

5

__  = z

3

So

It is

5/3

Hope this helps

and hope you get a laugh out of this

Solve for the value of n.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

n= 27

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve first subtract the 90-degree angle:

180-90= 90

Then, convert into an equation:

3n+9= 90

Subtract 9 from both sides:

3n=81

Then divide by 3:

n= 27

Hope this helps!

Which of the following numbers would be in the solution set to this inequality? Mark all that apply. -2x + 16 ≤ 10
kenny6666 [7]
-2x + 16 < = 10
-2x < = 10 - 16
-2x < = - 6
x > = -6/-2
x > = 3............so any number that is 3 or above is in the solution set

Sample size: A researcher is trying to decide how many people to survey. Which of the following sample sizes will result in a co
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a researcher is trying to decide how many people to survey.

We have confidence intervals are intervals with middle value as the mean and on either side margin of error.

Confidence interval = Mean ± Margin of error

Thus confidence interval width depends on margin of error.

Margin of error = Critical value *\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Thus for the same confidence level and std deviation we find margin of error is inversely proportional to square root of sample size.

Hence for small n we get wide intervals.

So if sample size = 300, the researcher will get wider confidence interval
