Rewrite B: |x-3| - 1 = 5 becomes |x-3| = 6. One way to interpret this follows:

Regard 3 as the center of a graph. Then locate 2 points: one that is 6 units to the right of 3, and the other that is 6 units to the left of 3. The final graph consists of just two points: -3 and 9. Note that -3 + 6 = 3 (the center) and that 9-6 = 3 (also the center).

|x - 3| - 1 = 5

x - 3 - 1 = 5

x - 4 = 5

x = 9

-(x - 3) - 1 = 5

-x + 3 - 1 = 5

-x + 2 = 5

-x = 3

x = - 3

x = -3 , 9 matched the answers on the number line

Answer is B) |x - 3| - 1 = 5

An airplane climbs at an angle of 16° with the ground. Find the ground

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

2403.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We get the length of the hypotenuse, and the base angle. To find the length of the base, we use the cosine of 16° since it is equal to the adjacent side length/ hypotenuse side length or cos 16°= x/2500. The isolate x by multiplying both sides by 2500. The cos 16° is around 0.96126, multiplied by 2500 (cos 16°(2500)) = 2403.1

To help consumers assess the risks they are taking, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) publishes the amount of nicotine fo

Anni [7]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean nicotine content of this brand of cigarette is between 20.3 milligrams and 30.3 milligrams.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 9 - 1 = 8

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 8 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95$ . So we have T = 1.8595
