Answer:
x = -4/5 or x = 71/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
(5 x + 4) (8 x - 71) = 0
Split into two equations:
5 x + 4 = 0 or 8 x - 71 = 0
Subtract 4 from both sides:
5 x = -4 or 8 x - 71 = 0
Divide both sides by 5:
x = -4/5 or 8 x - 71 = 0
Add 71 to both sides:
x = -4/5 or 8 x = 71
Divide both sides by 8:
Answer: x = -4/5 or x = 71/8
I believe the answer is 35
Answer:
Company X - 190 students
Company Y - 114 students
No phones - 76 students
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Find a multiplier to get the ratio from sample to population; to compare the sample to the population
380/120 = 3.16666667 or 3 & 1/6
380 comes from the total population of students and 120 comes from the randomly selected.
2) Use our multiplier to compare the results to the population
<u>People with Company X</u>
<u>People with Company Y </u>
<u>People with no cell phone</u>
- 24 * 3.166667 = 76.0000000001 = 76 (rounded)
<u>Double check</u>
190 + 114 + 76 = 380
