- 3(x - 2) = 12
Now, distribute.
- 3x + 6 = 12
Now subtract 6 from both sides.
- 3x = 6
Now, divide by -3.
x =  - 2

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x-2)=12

-3x+6=12

subtract 6 from both sides

-3x+6-6=12-6

-3x=6

divide by -3

-3x/3=6/-3

x=-2

At the bright-as-day light bulb factory, 5 out of each 136 bulbs produced are defective. If the daily production is 2720 bulbs,
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

100 lightbulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically find the percentage of lightbulbs that are bad. 5/136. So about 3. 6 percent. I'm going to use a more exact form of this percent for my calculations though. Now use the decimal for of this (0.036....) and multiply it by 2720. Using my exact decimal, the answer just so happened to be exactly 100. So there will be 100 defective lightbulbs per day. (Teachers are a stickler for units, so don't forget them if it's for a teacher)

Hope this helps!

These box plots show daily low temperatures for a sample of days in two
Mumz [18]

Answer:

C. The distribution for town A is symmetric, but the distribution for

town B is negatively skewed.

Step-by-step Explanation:

From the box plots attached in the diagram below, which shows data of low temperatures for town A and town B for some days, we can compare the shapes of the box plot by visually analysing both box plots and how the data for each town is distributed.

=> For town A, the shape of the box plot is symmetric because both quartiles seem equal, and the median also divides the rectangular box into two equal halves. Both whiskers also appear to be of equal lengths.

The box plot for Town A takes a symmetric shape, and this shows a typical normal distribution of data.

=> On the other hand, Town B data distribution is different. The median seem close to the top half of the box and does not divide the box into equal halves. This shows the distribution is skewed. Since the whisker is shorter from the upper end of the box to the left side, we can infer that the distribution for Town B is skewed to the left, and it is negatively skewed.

=> The right comparison of the shapes of the box plots is "C. The distribution for town A is symmetric, but the distribution for town B is negatively skewed."

A student sees a newspaper ad for an apartment that has 1330 square feet (ft2 ) of floor space. how many square meters of area a
kkurt [141]

We know 1 meter = 3.28084 feet

So 1 square meter = 3.28084 × 3.28084 square feet.

Now to convert from square feet to square meters, we need to divide by 3.28084 × 3.28084.

The area given in the news paper advertisement is 1330 square feet.

So to convert to square meters we divide by 3.28084 × 3.28084

We get

1330 square feet = \frac{1330}{(3.28084)^{2} }  =123.56

Hence 1330 square feet of area is equal to 123.56 square meters.
