Answer:

x = ± 7

|-7|-2=5

|7|-2=5

± means positive or negative

Step-by-step explanation:

|x|-2=5

Get x by itself by adding 2 to both sides.

x - 2 + 2= 5 + 2

-2 + 2 cancels out

x = 5 + 2

x = 7

Absolute value is how far a number is from 0.

x can be either positive or negative.

5. The superintendent of the local school district claims that the children in her district are brighter, on average, than the g

anygoal [31]

Answer:

We conclude that children in district are brighter, on average, than the general population.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data set:

105, 109, 115, 112, 124, 115, 103, 110, 125, 99

Formula:

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

$Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}$

$Mean =\displaystyle\frac{1117}{10} = 111.7$

Sum of squares of differences = 642.1

$S.D = \sqrt{\frac{642.1}{49}} = 8.44$

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 106

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 111.7

Sample size, n = 10

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 8.44

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 106\\H_A: \mu > 106$

We use one-tailed(right) t test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$

Putting all the values, we have

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{111.7 - 106}{\frac{8.44}{\sqrt{10}} } = 2.135$

Now,

$t_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance, 9 degree of freedom } = 1.833$

Since,

$t_{stat} > t_{critical}$

We fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis.

We conclude that children in district are brighter, on average, than the general population.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°, that is

∠ 1 + ∠ 2 + ∠ 3 = 180°

Given ∠ 1 + ∠ 2 = 134°, then

134° + ∠ 3 = 180° ( subtract 134° from 180° )

∠ 3 = 46° → D
