How many solutions does the following equation have? -6(x + 7) = -4.x - 2

Mathematics
1 answer:
mestny [16]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x=-20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-6(x+7)= -4x - 2

First of all, we have to solve brackets

So,

-6x-42=-4x-2

To find the solution of this equation, we have to isolate x on one side of the equation.

Adding 4x on both sides

-6x-42+4x = -2-4x+4x

-2x-42 = -2

Adding 42 on both sides

-2x-42+42 = -2+42

-2x=40

Dividing both sides by -2

-2x/2 = 40/-2

x = -20

The equation has only one solution which is x=-20 ..

Two separate tests are designed to measure a student's ability to solve problems. Several students are randomly selected to take
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

a) r = 0.974

b) Critical value = 0.602

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Two separate tests are designed to measure a student's ability to solve problems. Several students are randomly selected to take both test and the results are give below

Test A | 64 48 51 59 60 43 41 42 35 50 45

Test B |  91 68 80 92 91 67 65 67 56 78 71

To find - (a) What is the value of the linear coefficient r ?

             (b) Assuming a 0.05 level of significance, what is the critical value ?

Proof -

A)

r = 0.974

B)

Critical Values for the Correlation Coefficient

n       alpha = .05          alpha = .01

4           0.95                       0.99

5           0.878                     0.959

6           0.811                       0.917

7           0.754                      0.875

8           0.707                      0.834

9           0.666                      0.798

10          0.632                      0.765

11           0.602                      0.735

12          0.576                       0.708

13          0.553                       0.684

14           0.532                       0.661

So,

Critical r = 0.602 for n = 11 and alpha = 0.05
