Answer:

(0.5793, 0.6363)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  poll of 793 adults aged 18 or older asked about purchases that they intended to make for the upcoming holiday season. One of the questions asked about what kind of gift they intended to buy for the person on whom they would spend the most. Clothing was the first choice of 482 people.

i.e. sample proportion p= \frac{482}{793} =0.608

q=1-p = 0.392

Std error of p = \sqrt{pq/n} =0.0173

For 90% Z crtiical = 1.645

Hence margin of error = 1.645 * std error = 0.0285

Confidence interval 90%

= proportion ±margin of error

=(0.5793, 0.6363)

What is X ? <br> 9(x−1)−8x=−3(x+5).
musickatia [10]

Answer:

x = - 3 / 2 ( in decimal form = - 1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

9(x - 1) - 8x = -3(x + 5)

left side: 9(x - 1) - 8x

Expand... 9x - 9 - 8x

             = (9x - 8x) - 9

             = 1x - 9 or <em>x - 9</em>

right side: -3(x + 5)

Expand... <em>-3x - 15</em>

         

combine :

x - 9 = -3x - 15

Add 9 to both sides to get x alone

x - 9 + 9 = -3x - 15 + 9

x = -3x - 15 + 9

x = -3x - 6

Add 3x to both sides

x + 3x  = -3x - 6 + 3x

simplified, 4x = -6

Now divided 4 from both sides

4x / 4 = -6 / 4

simplify, x = -6 / 4

You can reduce the fraction by dividing it by 2

(-6 / 2) / (4 / 2) = -3 / 2

Hope this helps, Let me know if you have any questions !

Have a nice day :)
