Answer: x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting:

x-5(x+1)=3x+2

Simplify the left side:

-4x-5=3x+2

Move all the terms with an x to the left:

-7x-5=2

Move all the terms without an x to the right:

-7x=7

Divide both sides by -7:

x = -1

To solve for the margin of error:

margin of error = critical value x standard error

To compute for the critical value:
1. compute alpha: α= 1 - (confidence level/100) = 1 - .99 = 0.01
2. Find the critical probability: p = 1 - α/2 = 1 - (0.01/2) = 0.995
3. Look for the z score at the z table, in this case it is 2.58. This is your critical value.

To compute for the standard error, the formula is:
standard error = standard deviation (σ) divided by √n = 1.6 / √420 = 0.0781

Now plug in the following in the formula:

margin of error: 2.58 * 0.0781  = 0.2014 or 0.20

The answer is letter C.

Please help with 9 & 10
aev [14]

9. You can easily get rid of the decimal fraction by multiplying by 10. This will move the decimal point one place to the right in each number.

However, since all the decimal fractions are even numbers of tenths, you can also turn them to integers by multiplying by 5:

... 3x +24 = 36

_____

10. If you can't describe what the parts of your equation represent, you have no business writing it. Saying you can't describe your equation is the same as saying you don't understand the problem.

It is important to be able to describe the parts of the equation just as it is important to be able to say what the problem is telling you, what it is asking, and what your strategy is for solving it. The parts of the equation are intimately tied with those things: they embody the given information and the strategy of your solution.

Soosie's Cookie Company had fixed costs of $1250 and variable costs of $4.25 per dozen gourmet cookies that were baked and packa
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

$1250.00 + (x)$4.25 =

Step-by-step explanation

So fixed costs are $1,250.00.....every dozen you bake add $4.25 to the costs, cook one dozen you have $1,250.00 plus $4.25 or a total of $1,254.25.

Cook 10 dozen and you add $45.25 = the $1,250.00 for a new total of $1,295.25.
