X/5 -8=4 find the value of x

Mathematics
1 answer:
elena-s [515]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant this: (x/5)-8=4

In which case you would add 8 to both sides to get rid of the 8 on the left (your goal is to get x by itself so you want to move the numbers on the x side to the other side of the equal sign)

(x/5)=12

Then you would multiply 5 on both sides to get rid of the fraction with the 5 on the bottom on the left side.

x=60

There's your answer.

A researcher wants to estimate the percentage of all adults that have used the Internet to seek pre-purchase information in the
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The required sample size for the new study is 801.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

25% of all adults had used the Internet for such a purpose

This means that \pi = 0.25

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

What is the required sample size for the new study?

This is n for which M = 0.03. So

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.03 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.25*0.75)}{n}}

0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.25*0.75}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.25*0.75}}{0.03}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.25*0.75}}{0.03})^2

n = 800.3

Rounding up:

The required sample size for the new study is 801.

Can someone explain the formula for the area of a pentagon, and the formula for the length of an arc of a portion of a circle? P
RSB [31]
So a pentagon is constructed by five identical triangles, that's why you can find the area of one triangle and multiply it with 5:
A_pentagon=A_triangle*5
To find the area of a triangle you must use tangens.
You can watch this for more on that on youtube. 

For the length of an arc or a portion of a circle you can find it using: 
arc lenght = 2π*r(A/360), where A=angle. 
So if you know radians, then 2π is a whole circle. And to calculate for the specific circle you have to use the radius. That's why you multiply with radius, which is the only difference between any two different circles. you then multiply with the  part of the circle that you want to find the lenght for, which is A/360 (because there are 360° in a circle)

I hope that helped.

Lines K and N are perpendicular If the slope of line K is -6, what is the slope of Line N
djverab [1.8K]

line N has slope m = \frac{1}{6}

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m}


thus line N has slope - \frac{1}{- 6} = \frac{1}{6}
