SDAY: ve the equation: 5x – 2(x + 7) = -5

Mathematics

5x – 2(x + 7) = -5

mutiply the bracket by -2

(-2)(x)= -2x

(-2)(7)= -14

5x-2x-14=-5

3x-14= -5

move -14 to the other side, sign changes from -14 to +14

3x-14+14= -5+14

3x= 9

divide by 3 for both sides

3x/3= 9/3

x= 3

Answer: x= 3

How many solutions are there to the equation below?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

A) 0 (no solutions)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the equation:

3x - 10(x+2) = 13 - 7x

3x - 10x -20 = 13 - 7x

-7x - 20 = 13 - 7x

-20 = 13

Since both sides are clearly not equal to each other, no solution can satisfy both sides to be equal to each other. So A is correct.

In a recent survey, 72 out of 100 consumers reported that they preferred plastic bags instead of paper bags for their groceries.
kupik [55]

Answer:

a) P=0.03

b) α=0.05

c) 0.72

d) 100

e) 0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The P-value is the probability of the sample result. In this case the P-value is 0.03.

b) The level of significance is the threshold of probabilty for the null hypothesis to be reejcted or not. It is contrasted with the P-value to know if the effect is significant. In this case, the level of significance is 0.05.

NOTE: if it is a two-side test, the level of significance is 0.1 (two times 0.05).

c) The sample proportion is the one that results from the sample data. In this case, the sample proportion is 0.72.

p=72/100=0.72

d) The sample size is the amount of consumers reported. In this case is 100 customers.

e) The null value is 0.72 (equal to the sample proportion), because it is tested if there is no difference between the population proportion and the sample proportion.

What's the solution for y+1/2=3/4
creativ13 [48]
\frac{y+1}{2} = \frac{3}{4}

2(y+1) = 3        LCD is 4

2*y + 2*1 = 3

2y + 2 = 3

2y = 3 - 2

2y = 1

y = 1 / 2

I need help, this is geometry
Artemon [7]

Answer:

∠P = 39º

∠Q=120º

∠R = 21º

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠P+m∠Q+m∠R=180º (sum of ∠s in a triangle)

2x-3+6x-6+x=180º (substitution)

9x-9=180º (algebra)

9x=189º (algebra)

x=21º (algebra) (this is ∠R)

(2x-3)=39º (algebra) (this is ∠P)

6x-6=120º (algebra) (this is ∠Q)
