Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
If we plug in any negative number as x, the result will always be greater than 4, which rules out answers A and B
lets try plugging in 4 as x to test answer C:
2(8-4)
2(4)= 8
8 is greater than 4, therefore C is wrong.
Lets try 10 as X (answer D):
2(8-10)
2(-2)
-4
We know that -4 is less than 4, therefore it makes the inequality true! :)

Answer with explanation:</h2>
As per given , we have

Since , alternative hypothesis is right tailed, so the test is a right tailed test.
n= 1987
Proportion of adults believe that rudeness is a worsening problem : 
Test statistic : 

(since , the normal curve takes values of z from -7 to 7, so we use critical value to draw conclusion.)
The critical value for a significance level of 0.005= 1.645
Since , absolute test statistic value (12.09) is greater than the critical value (1.645), it means there is statistical significance and so we reject the null hypothesis.
Solve for any of the variables; for instance,
:


Then

Let
; then the intersection is given by the vector-valued function

or

The ladder and the wall form a right triangle.
The length is the hypotenuse = 15.
The base = 2*(15/5) = 2*3 = 6
Use pythagorean theorem to find other side of triangle:
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 1)(x + 7) − (2x + 5)²
3(x² + 8x + 7) − (4x² + 20x + 25)
3x² + 24x + 21 − 4x² − 20x − 25
-x² + 4x − 4
-(x² − 4x + 4)
-(x − 2)²
A squared number is never negative (provided x is a real number), so -(x − 2)² is never positive.
