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.

kvasek [131]

Answer: 1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

9 total marbles

2 red

so the first time he picks it would be a 2/9 chance of the marble being red

the second time there would be 8 total marbles and 2 red, so it would be a 2/8 or 1/4 chance.

the probability is found by doing 2/9*1/4 which equals 2/36 or 1/18.

The CEO of a local tech company wants to estimate the proportion of employees that are pleased with the cleanliness of the break
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Methods of obtaining a sample of 600 employees from the 4,700 workforce:

Part A:  The type of sampling method proposed by the CEO is Convenience Sampling.

Part B: When there are equal number of participants in both campuses, stratification by campus would give a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender.  Another method to ensure that stratification by campus gives a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender is to ensure that the sample is proportional to the proportion of each campus to the whole population or workforce.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Convenience Sampling technique is a non-probability (non-random) sampling method and the participants are selected based on availability (early attendees).  The early attendees might be different from the late attendees in characteristics such as age, sex, etc.  Therefore, sampling biases are present.  All non-probability sampling methods are prone to volunteer bias.

Stratified sampling  is more accurate and representative of the population.  It reduces sampling bias.  The difficulty arises in choosing the characteristic to stratify by.
