In the equation 9 more than 3 times a number is -6, what does a number equal

1 answer:

8 0

So 9 more than 3 times a number, would be:
9+(3x)=-6
then you would solve
subtract 9 from 9 and 9 from -6
you get 3x=-15
divide by 3 on both sides
x=-5

your welcome!!!! :)

How to work out the equation

sveta [45]

first, distribute -6 to (2b + 1), giving you -12b - 6, and then on the another side of the equation, distribute -2 to (5 + 4b) giving you, -10 - 8b. now we need to put our coefficients on one side so we will add 8b to each side of the equation, giving us -6 = -10 - 8b + 12b, then we will add 10 to both sides of the equation giving us, 10 -6 = -8b +12b, this gives u 4 = 4b. then, you would solve for b, which equals 1.

Finding a price that is 30% lower than $2075 is the same as finding a price that is 70% of $2075.

That means all we need to do is calculate what is 70% of $2075.

Convert 70% into decimal form which is 0.70.

Next, multiply $2075 by 0.70.

$2075*0.70 = $1452.50

The price the travel agent found was $1452.50

Note: If you don't know how to multiply by decimals you can multiply $2075 by 7 than divide the result by 10 (move the decimal point one place to the left).

A study was conducted to compare the proportion of drivers in Boston and New York who wore seat belts while driving. Data were c

In-s [12.5K]

(A.)test statistic for this test using Ha: p8くPN is Z = -2.164 (B.) p-value (3 decimal places) is 0.015. (C.) Based on this p-value, which of the following would you expect for a 95% is negative. (D.) the correct conclusion is The proportion of Boston drivers wearing seat was significantly lower than the proportion of new York drivers wearing seat belts.

A.)

According to given data find the test statistic for this test using Ha:

p1 = 0.581

p2 = 0.832

standard error = SE = 0.116

<h3>Test statistics :-</h3>

Z = $\frac{p1 - p2}{SE}$

Z = $\frac{0.581 - 0.832}{0.116}$ = -2.164

Z = -2.164

B.)

According to given Determine the p-value (3 decimal places).

<h3>p - value</h3>

it is left tailed test.

p - value for left tailed test is,

p - value = P(Z < test statistics )

p - value = P(Z < -2.164)

P - value = 0.015

C.)

Based on this p-value, which of the following would you expect for a 95%

confidence level = 95% = 0.95

significance level = α = 0.05

P -value is less than 0.05

so, reject null hypothesis at α = 0.05

That is $P_{B}$ < $P_{NY}$

so, based on P - value , All values in the 95% confidence interval

PB - PNY is negative.

D.)

According to given data What is the correct conclusion?

Reject null hypothesis at α = 0.05

so, $P_{B}$ < $P_{NY}$

Hence, The proportion of Boston drivers wearing seat was significantly lower than the proportion of new York drivers wearing seat belts.

A ____ of a triangle is the perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side or to the line that contains the opposite s

blagie [28]

Answer:

Altitude

Step-by-step explanation:

An altitude of the triangle is the line segment from a vertex to the opposite side and perpendicular to the opposite side. The orthocenter will not always be inside the triangle. This is why the orthocenter is the point of concurrency of the lines containing the altitudes rather than just the altitudes.

Ben used 10 1/2 gallons to drive 4 3/4 hours. How many gallons did Ben use in 1 hour?

Kryger [21]

Answer:

About 2.2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Create the following proportion:

$\frac{10.5}{4.75}$ = $\frac{x}{1}$

Cross multiply.

10.5 x 1 = 10.5

4.75 x X = 4.75x

4.75x = 10.5

Divide both sides by 4.75x.

10.5/4.75 = 2.2
