Expand it first. -2(x+3)= -2x-6
-2x-6 = 10
-2x = 10+6
-2x = 16
-x = -8
x = 8

Moltiply -2 by x and +3 to get -2x-6  from there you can solve by adding 6 to -10 =-8 and divide by -2x and get x=4

The nicotine content in a single cigarette of a particular brand has a distribution with mean 0.9 mg and standard deviation 0.1
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The answer to the question is;

The probability that the resulting sample mean of nicotine content will be less than 0.89 is 0.1587 or 15.87 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the distribution = 0.9 mg

The standard deviation of the sample = 0.1 mg

The size of the sample = 100

The mean of he sample = 0.89

The z score for sample mean is given by

Z =\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma/ \sqrt{n} } where

X = Mean of the sample

μ = Mean of the population

σ = Standard deviation of the population

Therefore Z = \frac{0.89-0.90}{0.1/\sqrt{100} } = -1

From the standard probabilities table we have the probability for  a z value of -1.0 = 0.1587

Therefore the probability that the resulting sample mean will be less than 0.89 = 0.1587 That is the probability that the mean is will be less than 0.89 is 15.87 % probability.

What is the difference between an irrational number and an integer? (PLZ HELP ME ANSWER ASAP!!!! All help is appreciated! :D)
enot [183]
So, first off it would help if you could define the terms irrational number and integer. Well, an irrational number is basically any real number that can't be expressed as a ratio of integers. They also cannot be represented by terminating or continuing decimals. And an integer is pretty much any number that cannot be written as a fraction or decimal, such as -2, 13, 257. It is not 2 and 1/2, or 4.75. Those would not be integers. Do you think you can figure out the difference?
