Answer: x = 5/3 OR x = -1

Step-by-step explanation: to solve this, we can rewrite the absolute value as two inequalities (one equal to the positive value, one equal to l the negative value) and solve each:

| 9x - 3 | = 12 becomes:

9x - 3 = 12

9x = 12 + 3

9x = 15

x = 15/9

x = 5/3 OR 1.66 as decimal

and now the other:

9x - 3 = - 12

9x = -12 + 3

9x = - 9

x = -9/9

x = -1

Because an equality is given, when we solve for x, there are technically just two possible values that would meet the conditions. Either 5/3 or - 1

Leah is writing an equivalent equation which solves for y. What should be her next step? 3x+4y=8 Add 4y to both sides of the equ

The given equation is

$3x+4y=8$

And we have to solve for y.

Solving for y, means isolating y . And to isolate y, we need to get rid of 4 that is with y .

It means we have to separate 4 from y, and for separation , we have to perform division. That is, we have to divide both sides by 4, and that will be the next step .

So out of the four options, correct option is the last option .

Sonbull [250]

Answer: 0.038

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total games : n= 375

Number of games won by the team that was winning the game at the end of the third quarter. = 300

The proportion (p) of the team that was winning the game at the end of the third quarter: $p=\dfrac{300}{375}=0.8$

Critical z-value for 90% confidence: z* = 1.645

Margin of error = $z^*\sqrt{\dfrac{(1-p)p}{n}}$

The margin of error in a 90% confidence interval estimate of p $=1.645\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2\times0.8}{300}}\\= 1.645\times\sqrt{0.00053333}\\\\=1.645\times0.0231\\\\=0.0379995\approx$$0.038$
