Find x if L is between N and M, and NL = (6x - 5), LM = (2x + 3), and NM = (3x+13)?

Mathematics
1 answer:
anastassius [24]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of x

By mathematical convention;

NM = NL + LM

Now, substitute individual values

3x + 13 = (6x-5) + (2x + 3)

3x + 13 = 6x-5 + 2x + 3

3x + 13 = 8x -2

Collect like terms

8x -3x = 13 + 2

5x = 15

x = 15/5

x = 3

A set of equations is given below:
xz_007 [3.2K]
No solutions.

To solve, set the two equations equal to each other.
6x +9 = 6x +2
cross out the 6x
9 = 2
there are no instances where 9 = 2, so there are no solutions.

In a study of 799 randomly selected medical malpractice​ lawsuits, it was found that 499 of them were dropped or dismissed. Use
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Claim is true that most medical malpractice lawsuits are dropped or dismissed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :In a study of 799 randomly selected medical malpractice​ lawsuits, it was found that 499 of them were dropped or dismissed.

To Find : Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that most medical malpractice lawsuits are dropped or dismissed.

Solution:

n =  799

x = 499

We will use one sample proportion test  

\widehat{p}=\frac{x}{n}\\\widehat{p}=\frac{499 }{ 799}\\\widehat{p}=0.6245

We are given that the claim is most medical malpractice lawsuits are dropped or dismissed.

Probability of dropped or dismissed is 1/2

 H_0:p=0.5\\H_a:p>0.5

Formula of test statistic = \frac{\widehat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}

                                        =\frac{0.6245-0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{799}}}

                                       = 7.038

p value (z>7.038) is 0

α =0.05

So, p value < α

So, we reject the null hypothesis

So,claim is true

Hence most medical malpractice lawsuits are dropped or dismissed.
