Assume
if |a|=b
a=b and -a=b

so

9|9-8x|=2x+3
divide both sides by 9
|9-8x|=2/9x+1/3
assume
9-8x=2/9x+1/3 and
-9+8x=2/9x+1/3


9-8x=2/9x+1/3
times 9 both sides
81-72x=2x+3
add 72x both sides
81=74x+3
minus 3
78=74x
divide both sides by 74
39/37=x

other one
-9+8x=2/9x+1/3
multiply both sides by 9
-81+72x=2x+3
minus 2x both sides
-81+70x=3
add 81 to both sides
70x=84
divide boh sides by 70
x=6/5


x=39/37 and 6/5
check

9|9-8(39/37)|=2(39/37)+3
2646/37=189/37
false

9|9-8(6/5)|=2(6/5)+3
351/5=27/5
false

no soltion evidently, weird

Thirty percent of the fifth grade students in a large school district read below grade level. The distribution of sample proport
fredd [130]

Answer: 0.9088  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : \mu=0.30

\sigma=0.045  

Let x be a random available that represents the proportion of students that reads below grade level .

Using z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma , for x= 0.36 , we have

z=\dfrac{0.36-0.30}{0.045}=1.33333

Using standard normal z-value table,

P-value = P(

P(z [Rounded yo the nearest 4 decimal places.]

Hence, the probability that a second sample would be selected with a proportion less than 0.36 = 0.9088

Line j has a slope of − 2. Line d is perpendicular to line j and passes through the point( − 8 , 3 ).  Write the equation for
Zina [86]

Answer:

The equation is: y = 1/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of j is -2. The slope of a line perpendicular to line j has a negative inverse: 1/2. The point is (-8, 3).

Use the point slope form of the equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitute:

y - 3 = 1/2(x - (-8))

y - 3 = 1/2x + 4

y = 1/2x + 4 + 3

y = 1/2x + 7

Proof:

Solve for f(x) when x = -8.

f(x) = 1/2x + 7

f(-8) = 1/2(-8) + 7

= -8/2 + 7

= -4 + 7

= 3, giving the point (-8, 3)
