Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

8(2x-6)=96

2x-6=96/8

2x-6=12

2x=12+6

2x=18

x=18/2

x=9

Hello, thanks for usin Brainly. :)

Let's solve by using distributive property.

8(2x-6)=96

16x-6=96

16x-48=96

     +48 +48

16x = 144

x = 9

First, what we did was do 8 x 2 & 6 x 8.

Then, we got 16x-6=96.

We want to get X by itself, therefore we need to get rid of -48, so we 48 to all of our terms.

Then our equation should look like 16x = 144.

Divide and get 9!

Therefore, x = 9.

Wait, how can we be sure?

Let's check our answer.

Let's allow our x value to be 9.

Now, our equation should look like:

8(2(9)-6=96

Follow the PEMDAS rule.

8(18-6)=96

8(12)=96

8 times 12 is 96.

96 = 96 Done!

Therefore, we know our answer is correct.

We have five samples of data: sample A with 30 successes of 50 cases, sample B with 600 successes of 1000 cases, sample C with 3
faust18 [17]

Answer:

C. with 3000 successes of 5000 cases sample

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we need to test if the proportion of success is greater than 0.5.

From the given options, we can see that they all have the same proportion which equals to;

Proportion p = 30/50 = 600/1000 = 0.6

p = 0.6

But we can notice that the number of samples in each case is different.

Test statistic z score can be calculated with the formula below;

z = (p^−po)/√{po(1−po)/n}

Where,

z= Test statistics

n = Sample size

po = Null hypothesized value

p^ = Observed proportion

Since all other variables are the same for all the cases except sample size, from the formula for the test statistics we can see that the higher the value of sample size (n) the higher the test statistics (z) and the highest z gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis. So the option with the highest sample size gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis.

Therefore, option C with sample size 5000 and proportion 0.6 has the highest sample size. Hence, option C gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis

Don’t answer if you don’t know !!
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

72 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a polygon with n sides is (n−2) × 180

Since the polygon is regular, we can divide by the number of sides to find the measure of each angle (n−2) × 180 / n

Each angle is equal to 175

(n−2) × 180 / n = 175

Multiply each side by n

(n-2)180 = 175n

Distribute

180n -360 = 175n

Subtract 180n from each side

180n-180n-360 = 175n-180n

-360 = -5n

Divide each side by -5

-360/-5 =-5n/-5

72 = n

There are 72 sides

Answer:

It can be observed that the value of y is the value of x multiplied by -2. Hence the equation would be y=-2x.
