Answer:

Equation:

5x - 6 = 9

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's break this down:

When six is subtracted from five times a number, the result is 9

"five times a number" simply means a variable, such as x, is being multiplied by 5

five times a number: 5x

Next step:

When six is subtracted from five times a number, the result is 9

"six is subtracted from" means 6 is being taken away from whatever comes next, in this case, '5x'

six is subtracted from: - 6

Final section:

When six is subtracted from five times a number, the result is 9

"the result is 9" means the entire equation equals nine

the result is nine: = 9

Put it all together:

5x - 6 = 9

Solve:

5x - 6 = 9

     +6  +6

5x = 15

/5     /5

x = 3

Therefore, the value of x is three.

What can you say about the continuous function that generated the following table of values?
scoundrel [369]

Option C. The function that has the table here has  exactly one x-intercept.

<h3>How to find the intercept</h3>

As the signs of the functions are changing, we can see that there is a crossing to the x axis.

This tells us that the zero value that we see is the x intercept and there is no other x intercept in the question.

In the diagram, transversal t cuts parallel lines a and b. Which equation is necessarily true?
hoa [83]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.  

m<3 = m<6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we an see that, a and b are parallel lines and line t is the traversal on the lines.

<u>To find the correct option</u>

From the given figure we get

Corresponding angles are,

<1 & <5,  <2&<6, <2&<7 and <4 &<8

Alternate interior angles are,

<3 & <6  and <4 &<5

Alternate interior angles are equal.

m<3 = m<6

Therefore the correct answer is optionB

Identify the type I error and the type II error that corresponds to the given hypothesis. The proportion of people who write wit
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The type I error occurs when the researchers rejects the null hypothesis when it is actually true.

The type II error occurs when the researchers fails to reject the null hypothesis when it is not true.

Null hypothesis: The proportion of people who write with their left hand is equal to 0.23: p =0.23

Type I error would be: Fail to reject the claim that the proportion of people who write with their left hand is 0.29 when the proportion is actually different from 0.29

Since 0.29 is assumed to be the alternative claim.

Type II error would be: Reject the claim that the proportion of people who write with their left hand is 0.29 when the proportion is actually 0.29

Still with the assumption that 0.29 is the alternative claim.
