How do I solve 5x+3=2(-4x-5)+2x

Mathematics
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x= -\frac{13}{11}

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 2 through the parentheses.

5x+3=-8x-10+2x

Collect like terms

5x+3=-6x-10

Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign.  Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign.

5x+6x=-10-3

Collect like terms. Calculate the difference

11x=-13

Divide both sides by 11 and you get

x= -13/11

Hope this helpsʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

Hey there! :) 

2x - 3y - z ; When x = -2, y = 3, & z = -2

Since we're given the values of x, y, & z, we can very simply plug everything in! 

2(-2) - 3(3) - (-2)

Simplify.

(-4) + (-9) + 2

Get rid of parenthesis.

-4 - 9 + 2

Remember to do PEMDAS! 

Parenthesis
Exponents
Multuply
Divide
Add
Subtract

So, since adding comes before subtracting, let's add! :) 

-4 - 9 + 2

-4 - 7

Simplify.

-11

So, our answer is [A] : -11

~Hope I helped!~

"You measure 34 dogs' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 67 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 13.5 o
liraira [26]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true population mean dog weight is between 62.46 ounces and 71.54 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{13.5}{\sqrt{34}} = 4.54

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 67 - 4.54 = 62.46 ounches.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 67 + 4.54 = 71.54 ounces.

The 95% confidence interval for the true population mean dog weight is between 62.46 ounces and 71.54 ounces.
