How do I solve 8/3=(y-9)/(7y+4)

Mathematics

zhuklara [117]3 years ago

Equation

\dfrac{8}{3} = \dfrac{y - 9}{7y + 4} Cross Multiply

Solve

8 * (7y + 4) = 3*(y - 9) Remove the brackets

56y + 32 = 3y - 27 Subtract 3y from both sides.

56y - 3y + 32 = - 27

53y + 32 = -27 Subtract 32 from both sides.

53y = -32 - 27

53y = - 59 Divide by 53

y = - 59/53

y = - 1.113

Check

8/3 = (-1.113 - 9)/(7*-1.113 + 4)

8/3 = -10.113 / (- 7.791 + 4 )

8/3 = -10.113 / -3.791

8/3 = 2.667 which very nearly right. Some rounding has taken place.

Amy was scheduled for 12 intervals this week. One her first interval, she had a technical issue that prevented her from working
ad-work [718]

Based on the total of intervals vs the number of intervals Amy attended her CA percentage is 75%

<h3>What is the CA percentage?</h3>

The CA percentage measures the commitment of an employee to be logged in during the intervals that were assigned to him/her to work.

In this way, the CA percentage is equal to 100% if the employee worked as scheduled. Moreover, this percentage can be affected by factors such as:

  • Technical issues.
  • Human errors.

In the case of Amy, there is a total of 12 intervals and it is known:

  • She had a technical issue that prevented her from working, but this was reported so it is unlikely this is considered in her CA.
  • She missed three intervals because she looked at her schedule wrong.

Based on this information, let's calculate her CA:

  • 12 intervals = 100%
  • 9 intervals =  x

  • x = 9 x 100 / 12
  • x = 900 / 12
  • x = 75%

Consider a paint-drying situation in which drying time for a test specimen is normally distributed with σ = 7. The hypotheses H0
pshichka [43]

Answer:

(a) The value \bar x = 72.3 is 1.21 standard deviations below the null value of <em>μ</em>.

(b) The mean drying time of paint is not less than 74.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis for the single mean test is:

<em>H₀</em>: <em>μ</em> = 74 vs. <em>Hₐ</em>: μ < 74.

The information provided is:

<em>σ</em> = 7

<em>n</em> = 25

As the population standard deviation is known, we will use a <em>z</em>-test for single mean.

(a)

The <em>z</em>-score is a Normal distribution with mean 0 and variance 1. It is also defined as the number of standard deviations a raw score is from the mean.

The <em>z</em>-score for sample mean is given by:

z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}

If \bar x = 72.3 compute the corresponding <em>z</em>-score as follows:

z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}

  =\frac{72.3-74}{7/\sqrt{25}}\\=-1.21

Thus, the value \bar x = 72.3 is 1.21 standard deviations below the null value of <em>μ</em>.

(b)

So the test statistic is, <em>z</em> = -1.21.

Compute the <em>p</em>-value of the test as follows:

p-value=P(Z

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

The decision rule says to, reject the null hypothesis if the <em>p</em>-value is less than the significance level <em>α</em> = 0.01 and vice-versa.

<em>p</em>-value = 0.1131 < <em>α</em> = 0.01

The null hypothesis was failed to be rejected.

Thus, the mean drying time of paint is not less than 74.
