Answer:

X equals 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+1=5x-9

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

15+1=25-9

16=16

X=5.
Explanation:
Take 3x+1=5x-9 and subtract 1 from both sides.
Now you have 3x=5x-10, Subtract 5x from both sides to get -2x= -10
Now divide both sides by -2 and you have x=5 :).

Find a formula for the nth term in this arithmetic sequence. a1=0, a2=0.5, a3=1, a4=1.5
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

nth term is;

0.5n-0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, the first term is 0

The common difference is 0.5-0= 1-0.5 = 1.5-1 = 0.5

Formula for nth term of an arithmetic sequence is;

a + (n-1)d

So we have

0 + (n-1) 0.5

= 0.5n-0.5

You drive 150 miles in 3 hours before stopping for 30 minutes to have lunch and gas.  After lunch you travel 100 miles in an hou
KiRa [710]
Average speed = total miles driven / total driving time
average speed = (150 + 100) / (3 + 1 1/2) =
                             250 / (4 1/2) =
                             250 / (9/2) =
                             250 * 2/9 =
                             500 / 9 = 55.55 mph

Use the given values of n and p to find the minimum usual value μ−2σ and the maximum usual value μ+2σ. Round to the nearest hund
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

μ−2σ = 1,089.26

μ+2σ = 1,097.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation of a sample of size 'n' and proportion 'p' is:

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} }

If n=1139 and p =0.96, the standard deviation is:

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}\\\sigma = 0.001836

The minimum and maximum usual values are:

\mu-2\sigma = (p-2\sigma)*n\\\mu+2\sigma = (p+2\sigma)*n

\mu-2\sigma = (0.96-2*0.001836)*1139\\\mu-2\sigma = 1,089.26\\\mu+2\sigma = (0.96+2*0.001836)*1139\\\mu+2\sigma = 1,097.62

Pls help i will give you 30 points asap
Olegator [25]

In y = mx + b form, the slope can be found in the m position and the y intercept can be found in the b position.

y = mx + b

y = 2x + 15

slope(m) = 2 and y int (b) = 15

The initial amount is the y intercept, which is 15. The rate of change (the slope) is 2

example :  

baskets picked in 1 hr :

y = 2(1) + 15

y = 2 + 15

y = 17

baskets  picked in 2 hrs :

y = 2(2) + 15

y = 4 + 15

y = 19

so the slope ( rate of change) is basically saying for every hr of picking, you pick 2 baskets...so your picking 2 baskets per hr.

The y intercept (15) is telling us that they already had 15 baskets to start with.

A cars tire pressure decreased by 0.098 of its original pressure write 0.098 as a percent
balandron [24]
To write this as a percent, just move the decimal two places to the right. So instead of .098, this becomes 9.8%. hope this helps!
