(2/5)+(3/(5x))=(x+5)/10
nasty fractions, we hates it forever

so

get rid of all those nasty fractions
multiply both sides by 10x
4x+6=x(x+5)
distribute
4x+6=x^2+5x
minus (4x+6) from both sides
0=x^2+x-6
factor
0=(x-2)(x+3)
set each to zero
0=x-2
2=x

0=x+3
-3=x

x=-3 and 2


3rd option is answer

An escalator lifts people to the second floor of a building, 21 ft above the first floor. the escalator rises at a 30 degree ang
Ira Lisetskai [31]
We use the trigonometric function for this case. An escalator is an inclined path. We form a right triangle since we have given the value of the height. The height from the first floor to second floor is called the adjacent while the travelled distance of the people is called the hypothenuse. We use cosine function because we are given in terms of adjacent and hypothenuse. The ratio of cosine function is
cos x = a/h
where x is the angle
Solving for h,
h = a/(cos x) = 21/(cos 30) = 24.25 ft

"Large Sample Proportion Problem. Surveys were conducted in multiple countries and respondents were asked if they felt political
melomori [17]

Answer: 0.0158

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The data for the United States is that out of 1,000 sampled, 470 indicated yes, they felt political news was reported fairly.

According to the given information we have,

Sample size : n= 1000

Sample proportion: \hat{p}=\dfrac{470}{1000}=0.47

The standard error for proportion is given by :-

S.E.=\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

S.E.=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.47(1-0.47)}{1000}}

S.E.=\sqrt{0.0002491}

S.E.=0.0157829021412\approx0.0158

[Rounded to the nearest four decimal places.]

Hence, the standard error for the confidence interval = 0.0158

On the first day of your garage sale, you earned 12x+9 dollars. The next day you earned 22x dollars. Is it possible you earned t
Mrac [35]
No, no value for x will result in you getting the same amount of money
I.e. on the first day if x =2 you earn 33. on the second day you would've earned 44. Of course this may be wrong so best to double check
