Answer:

-31 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

17-3(x+9)=50

-17 -17

-3(x+9)=67

divide by -3

x+9=-22 1/3

-9 -9

x=-31 1/3

17-3x+27=50 then -3x = 6 so x = -2

I cannot help you with the first draging part since it needs to be done form your device.

But I can help you with the expression. Anything to the power of 0 power is equal to 1. Therefore:

$2^{0} = 1$

According to a study conducted by the Gallup Organization, the the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly is 0.10. A rand

Answer: 0.1457

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion.

Given: The proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly is 0.10.

i.e. p= 0.10

Sample size : n= 1100

Sample proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly = $\hat{p}=\dfrac{121}{1100}=0.11$

We assume that the population is normally distributed

Now, the probability that the sample proportion is more than 0.11:

$P(\hat{p}>0.11)=P(\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}>\dfrac{0.11-0.10}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.10(0.90)}{1100}}})\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{0.01}{0.0090453})\ \ \ [\because z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}} ]\\\\=P(z>1.1055)\\\\=1-P(z\leq1.055)\\\\=1-0.8543=0.1457\ \ \ [\text{using z-table}]$

Hence, the probability that the sample proportion is more than 0.11 = 0.1457

ABDE is a rectangle on coordinate axes, the sides of the rectangle are parallel to the axes,

Hitman42 [59]

The coordinates of B and D are the location of the vertices B and D in the rectangle

The coordinates of B and D are (55, 30) and (55, 14)

<h3>How to determine the coordinates of B and D?</h3>

From the figure of the rectangle, we have:

A = (25,30)

C = (40, 22)

Point B has the same y-coordinate as point A

So, we have:

B = (x, 30)

The x-coordinate is then calculated as:

Bx = 2Cx - Ax

This gives

Bx = 2*40 - 25

Bx = 55

So, the coordinates of B are:

B = (55, 30)

Point D has the same x-coordinate as point B

So, we have:

D = (55, y)

The y-coordinate is then calculated as:

Dy = Cy - (By - Cy)

This gives

Dy = 22 - (30 - 22)

Dy = 14

So, the coordinates of B are:

D = (55, 14)

Hence, the coordinates of B and D are (55, 30) and (55, 14)
