The solution is x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is a linear equation so it will have only one equation

Given equation is:

$5x+3=2x+15$

Subtraction property of equality:

$5x+3-3 = 2x+15-3\\5x = 2x+12$

Subtraction property of equality:

$5x-2x = 2x-2x+12\\3x = 12$

Division Property of Equality:

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{12}{3}\\x = 4$

Hence,

The solution is x = 4

What are the measurements of the two angles in the figure below?

IgorC [24]

Both angles need to equal 180 degrees .

Add them together:

2x +10 + 3x-5 = 180

5X +5 = 180

Subtract 5 from each side:

5x = 175

Divide both sides by 5:

X = 175 / 5

X = 35

Now replace X with 35 in each equation:

2x +10 = 2(35) +10 = 70 +10 = 80

3x-5 = 3(35) - 5 = 105 -5 = 100

The answer is A. 80 and 100

A city police officer using radar checked the speed of 26 cars as they were travelling down a city street and the data is given

pychu [463]

Answer: The distribution of the data set is positively skewed.

Explanation:

In order to see whether the given data set is symmetric, positively skewed or negatively skewed, we will find the mean, median and mode of the given data set.

For symmetric distribution, $Mean = Median=Mode$

For positively skewed distribution, $Mean > Median>Mode$

For negatively skewed distribution, $Mean < Median$

The mean of the given data set is given below:

$Mean = \frac{27+23+22+38+43+24+25+23+22+54+31+30+29+48+27+25+29+28+26+33+25+21+23+34+20+23}{26}$

$=\frac{753}{26}$

$=28.96$

Now, the Median is:

To find the median we need to sort the data in ascending order as:

$20,21,22,22,23,23,23,23,24,25,25,25,26,27,27,28,29,29,30,31,33,34,38,43,48,54$

$Median=\left(\frac{N+1}{2} \right)^{th} item$

$=\left(\frac{26+1}{2}\right)^{th} item$

$=13.5^{th} item$

$=26+0.5 \times (27-26)$

$=26.5$

$\therefore Median = 26.5$

The mode is the most frequently occurring observation. Therefore the mode is:

$Mode=23$

Since the $Mean >Median>Mode$ , therefore the distribution of the given data set is positively skewed.
