Equation: 4x + 7 = 3(2x - 5)

Step-by-step solution:

• Expand brackets

-> 4x + 7 = 6x - 15

• Move x variable to a side and the numbers to another

-> 4x - 6x = -15 - 7

• Solve

-> -2x = -22

• Multiply both sides by (-1)

-> -(-2x) = -(-22)
-> 2x = 22

• Divide both sides by 2

-> x = 22/2

-> x = 11

• Justification
-> Put x = 11 in original equation
-> 4(11) + 7 = 3( 2(11) - 5)
-> 44 + 7 = 3(22 - 5)
-> 51 = 3(17)
-> 51 = 51
-> 51 - 51 = 0
-> 0 = 0
Since both sides are equal to each other, the answer to the equation is correct.

I don't know Sam's equation so I'm not gonna answer that.

A 500-page book contains 250 sheets of paper. The thickness of the paper used to manufacture the book has mean 0.08 mm and stand
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

10.20% probability that a randomly chosen book is more than 20.2 mm thick

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

250 sheets, each sheet has mean 0.08 mm and standard deviation 0.01 mm.

So for the book.

\mu = 250*0.08 = 20, \sigma = \sqrt{250}*0.01 = 0.158

What is the probability that a randomly chosen book is more than 20.2 mm thick (not including the covers)

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20.2. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{20.2 - 20}{0.158}

Z = 1.27

Z = 1.27 has a pvalue of 0.8980

1 - 0.8980 = 0.1020

10.20% probability that a randomly chosen book is more than 20.2 mm thick
