Answer: D.) x + x + x + 2 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A 10-foot board is to be cut into 3 pieces.

Two of the pieces will be the same length and one piece will be 2 feet longer than the other two.

Let x be the length of the each of the two equal pieces .

Then, length of third piece = x+2

According to the question , we have

Combined length of pieces = 10 foot

i.e. x+x+(x+2) = 10

i.e. x+x+x+2= 10  [on removing brackets]

Hence, the equation could be used to solve for the lengths : x + x + x + 2 = 10

So , the correct option is D.

To join a local square dancing group, Jan has to pay a $100 sign-up fee plus $25 per month. Write an equation for the cost (y) b
klasskru [66]

Answer:

y = $100 + $25x

Step-by-step explanation:

y is the total cost

x is the number of months

The sign up fee is $100.

Each month would cost an additional $25 per month.

The total cost then would be the sign up fee plus the $25 for each month. Since we do not know the number of months, we will assign x.

So the equation would be:

y = $100 + $25x

The confidence interval formula is computed by:

Xbar ± Z s/ sqrt (n)

Where:

Xbar is the mean

Z is the z value

S is the standard deviation

N is the number of samples

 

So our given are:

90% confidence interval with a z value of 1.645

Sample size 40, 45

Mean 180, 179

Standard deviation 2, 4

 

So plugging that information in the data will give us a confidence interval:

For 1:

Xbar ± Z s/ sqrt (n)

= 180 ± 1.645 (2 / sqrt (40))

= 180 ± 1.645 (0.316227766)

= 180 ± 0.520194675

= 179.48, 180.52

For 2:

Xbar ± Z s/ sqrt (n)

= 179 ± 1.645 (4 / sqrt (45))

<span>= 179 ± 1.645 (0.596284794)</span>

therefore, the answer is letter b

masha68 [24]
Sales tax is .30 cents because 2.39+1.59=3.98
multiply by the sales tax which would be .075 after you move the decimal. you get .2985 cents so round it up to .30 cents
