Let's solve for x --

Isn't it always a little easier to solve a math problem with starting by rewriting the equation?

3/8x + 15/2 = 8

Step 1) Subtract 15/2 from both sides

3/8x + 15/2 - 15/2 = 8 - 15/2

3/8x = 1/2

Step 2) Multiply both sides by 8/3

(8/3) × (3/8x) = (8/3) × (1/2)

x = 4/3

FINAL ANSWER -

x = 4/3

↑ ↑ ↑ Hope this helps! :D

Question 4 pleaseeeeeee

arsen [322]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate means one quantity in terms of another unit quantity. In the answer choices, we see that the denominator is always in terms of UNIT LITERS (1 L), so that means, we have to find gallons in terms of UNIT LITERS.

It means, we have to divide gallons by liters to get in terms of unitary liters.

Let's check the first line:

19.5/75 = 0.26 Gallons / 1 Liter

Now, checking 2nd:

39/150 = 0.26 Gallons / 1 Liter

So, yes, they are the same and other 2 lines would be the same as well. The unit rate is:

0.26 gal/1L

That's answer choice B

natima [27]

Answer:

6in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Volume of the lockbox= 312 cubic inches

Height= 4in

Length= 13in

Width= ???

The expression for the volume of box is

V= L*W*H

substitute

312=13*W*4

312=52W

W= 312/52

W=6 in

Hence the width is 6in

Dr. Ashby is studying the heart rate of adult men. Preliminary data suggests that the standard deviation of heart rates for adul

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

n=42 adult men

Step-by-step explanation:

-The minimum sample size to get a desired margin of error, E is calculated using the formula:

$n\geq( \frac{z\sigma}{E})^2$

-Given that $\sigma=7.5, \ \ E=3\ , \ z_{0.005}=2.58$ , we can substitute to solve for n in the above formula:

$n\geq (\frac{z\sigma}{E})^2\\\\\therefore n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\sigma}{E})^2\\\\=(\frac{2.58\times7.5}{3})^2\\\\=41.6025\approx42$

Hence, the desired minimum sample size, n is 42 adult men.
