Please help me with the question. You must solve for x.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

$x= (3, \frac{3}{10} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is composed of two similar triangles; therefore,

$\frac{7x}{19x-4} =\frac{7x+8}{(5x+5)+(19x-4)}$ <em>this says the ratio of the sides is same for the two triangles.</em>

we simplify and a rearrange to get

$7x(24x+1)=(7x+8)(19x-4)$

which we expand and get

$168x^2+7x=133x^2+124x-32$

$35x^2-117x+32=0$

this quadratic equation has solutions

$x=3.04$

$x=0.30$

As integers and simplified fractions these are

$x= (3, \frac{3}{10} )$

A clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 580 babies were born, a

hammer [34]

Answer:

No, Method is not effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of girls = 319

and n be the total number of babies = 580

Then, proportion

$\hat{p}=\frac{p}{n}\\\\=\frac{310}{580}\\\\=0.55$

Standard Error,

$SE = \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}\\= \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1-0.55)}{580}}\\= 0.02066$

The level of significance is:

$Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=Z_{0.005}=2.575$

Confidence Interval:

$p \pm [Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} \times SE]\\=0.550 \pm [2.575 \times 0.02066\\=(0.4968, 0.6032)$

Since 0.50 lies in the interval hence we fail to reject

$H_0: p = 0.50$

Thus, the method does not appear to be effective.

Root( x-1 ) = 2 - root (x+3)

cluponka [151]

Answer: x = 4

Explanation: root x-1 = 2- root x+3
First let’s take out the root by square both side by 2 we get:
x-1= 4-x+3
x-1 = -x+7
x+x = 7+1
2x= 8
x= 8/2=4
