Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9x-22=11x-54 take 9x from each side
-22=2x-54 add 54 to each side
32=2x divide by 2
16=x
The answer is that the assumed margin of error is 5%.
Here is how we calculate this;
<span>presidential approval rating is between 47% and 57%
</span>(57% - 47% ) / 2 = 10/2 = 5%
8 × 20= 160; 8 × 4= 32; 160 + 32= 192; 8 × t= 192; 192 ÷ 8= 24; t=24
The answer is t = 24
Hope this helps :)
This problem is simply asking us to add the weights which are presented as fractions. You can easily get the answer if you input them directly in a calculator. But I think the challenge here is to manually add fractions.
Let's add the two 1/4 lb weights because it is easier for they have a common denominator. Just simply add the numerators.
1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4
Then, add with this the fraction part of 2 1/5.
2/4 + 1/5 = ?
The least common denominator is 4*5 = 20. Then divide 20 with each denominator and multiply to their respective numerator.
2/4 + 1/5 = [(20/4 * 2) + (20/5 *1)]/20 = 14/20
14/20 is simplified to 7/10. Then add the whole number 2. <em>Therefore, the sum of all weights is 2 7/10 pounds.</em>
