20x+x-2=4 rational equation​

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

20x + x - 2 = 4

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. <u>Combine like terms:</u> 21x - 2 = 4
  2. <u>Add 2 to both sides:</u> 21x = 6
  3. <u>Divide both sides by 21:</u> x = 6/21
  4. <u>Simplify:</u> x = 2/7

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

20(2/7) + 2/7 - 2 = 4

40/7 + 2/7 - 2 = 4

42/7 - 2 = 4

6 - 2 = 4

4 = 4

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Collect like terms:

20x + x = 21x ----> 21x - 2= 4

Move the constant to the right hand side and change the sign of the constant:

21x = 4 + 2

Calculate:

21x = 4 + 2 ---> 21x = 6

Divide both sides by 21:

21/21 and 6/21 = 2/7

Solution:

x = 2/7 or x= 0.285714

Express the confidence interval (0.036, 0.086) in the form of p-e&lt; p
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

p-e< p < p+e

(0.061 - 0.025) < 0.061 < (0.061 + 0.025)

0.036 < 0.061 < 0.086

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Confidence interval CI = (a,b) = (0.036, 0.086)

Lower bound a = 0.036

Upper bound b = 0.086

To express in the form;

p-e< p < p+e

Where;

p = mean Proportion

and

e = margin of error

The mean p =( lower bound + higher bound)/2

p = (a+b)/2

Substituting the values;

p = (0.036+0.086)/2

Mean Proportion p = 0.061

The margin of error e = (b-a)/2

Substituting the given values;

e = (0.086-0.036)/2

e = 0.025

Re-writing in the stated form, with p = 0.061 and e = 0.025

p-e< p < p+e

(0.061 - 0.025) < 0.061 < (0.061 + 0.025)

0.036 < 0.061 < 0.086
