PLEASE HELP ME 3X+1/14=2X/8 WHAT IS  X? EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT THE ANSWER

Cross-multiply so that 8(3x + 1) = 14(2x)

Distribute the 8 and 14 into the parentheses:
24x + 8 = 28x

Subtract 24x from both sides:
8 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4:
x = 2

Tom [10]

Answer: ok

Step-by-step explanation:

11) 75 percent. this is bc 32 - 8 is 24, and 24 of 32 as a percentage is 75 percent.

12) 25 percent, bc 15 percent of 60 is 25 percent

A population has a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of 50. Suppose a sample of size 100 is selected and x is used to estimat
zmey [24]

Answer:

a) 0.6426 = 64.26% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean.

b) 0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 200, \sigma = 50, n = 100, s = \frac{50}{\sqrt{100}} = 5

a. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 200 + 5 = 205 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 200 - 5 = 195.

Due to the Central Limit Theorem, Z is:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

X = 205

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{205 - 200}{5}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413.

X = 195

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{195 - 200}{5}

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a pvalue of 0.1587.

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6426

0.6426 = 64.26% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean.

b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 210 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 190.

X = 210

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{210 - 200}{5}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772.

X = 195

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{190 - 200}{5}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228.

0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544

0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean.

What should I fill the blanks with?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The three angles form a "linear triplet" ,  so their measures must add up to 180^o

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the three angles add up to cover half a circle (therefore 180 degrees of angle. Such type of angle combination is called a "linear triplet" since they add up to give a straight line.

(15 pts) 4. Find the solution of the following initial value problem: y"-10y'+25y = 0 with y(0) = 3 and y'(0) = 13
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

y(x)=3e^{5x}-2xe^{5x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given differential equation is y''-10y'+25y=0

The characteristics equation is given by

r^2-10r+25=0

Finding the values of r

r^2-5r-5r+25=0\\\\r(r-5)-5(r-5)=0\\\\(r-5)(r-5)=0\\\\r_{1,2}=5

We got a repeated roots. Hence, the solution of the differential equation is given by

y(x)=c_1e^{5x}+c_2xe^{5x}...(i)

On differentiating, we get

y'(x)=5c_1e^{5x}+5c_2xe^{5x}+c_2e^{5x}...(ii)

Apply the initial condition y (0)= 3 in equation (i)

3=c_1e^{0}+0\\\\c_1=3

Now, apply the initial condition y' (0)= 13 in equation (ii)

13=5(3)e^{0}+0+c_2e^{0}\\\\13=15+c_2\\\\c_2=-2

Therefore, the solution of the differential equation is

y(x)=3e^{5x}-2xe^{5x}
