Is 16 fluid ounces more than 1 cup

If x=-5 what is the value of x^2-1/x+1? A. 6 b. -4 c. 4 d. 5 4/5 e. 19 need answers asap

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The answer is -6 but its not in the option

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{ {x}^{2} - 1 }{ x + 1}$

Let x = -5

[(-5)²-1]/(-5+1)

= (25-1)/(-4)

= 24/-4

= -6

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

We conclude that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in 1943, an organization surveyed 1100 adults and asked, "Are you a total abstainer from, or do you on occasion consume, alcoholic beverages?"

Of the 1100 adults surveyed, 429 indicated that they were total abstainers. In a recent survey, the same question was asked of 1100 adults and 352 in

Let p = proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol.

where, p = $\frac{429}{1100}$ = 0.39

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p = 39% {means that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has not changed}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p $\neq$ 39% {means that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol = $\frac{352}{1100}$ = 0.32

n = sample of adults surveyed = 1100

So, test statistics = $\frac{0.32-0.39}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{1100} } }$

= -4.976

The value of z test statistics is -4.976.

Now, at 0.10 significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.645 and 1.645 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistics doesn't lie within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed.

How to use a bar model?

riadik2000 [5.3K]

You make a bar and you take 34 and shade 18. Count the squares not shaded.

Don't take my word on this. I may be wrong.

Given: the function defined by f(x)=3x^2-4 Which statement is true? 1. f(0) = 0 2. f(-2) = f(2) 3. f(5)+ f(2) = f(7) 4. f(5) x f

sergeinik [125]

$f(x)=3x^2-4 \\ \Downarrow \\ f(0)=3 \times 0^2-4=0-4=-4 \\ -4 \not= 0 \\ f(0) \not= 0 \\
\hbox{statement 1 is false} \\ \\
f(-2)=3 \times (-2)^2-4 =3 \times 4-4=12-4=8 \\
f(2)=3 \times 2^2-4=3 \times 4-4=12-4=8 \\ 8=8
\\ f(-2)=f(2) \\
\hbox{statement 2 is true}$

$f(5)=3 \times 5^2-4=3 \times 25-4=75-4=71 \\ f(2)=8 \\
f(7)=3 \times 7^2-4=3 \times 49-4=147-4=143 \\
71+8 \not= 143 \\
f(5)+f(2) \not= f(7) \\ \hbox{statement 3 is false} \\ \\
f(5)=71 \\ f(2)=8 \\ f(10)=3 \times 10^2-4=3 \times 100-4=300-4=296 \\
71 \times 8 \not= 296 \\
f(5) \times f(2) \not= f(10) \\
\hbox{statement 4 is false}$

Stamement 2. f(-2)=f(2) is true.

12) Twenty cubic feet of marble can weigh 3400 pounds, plus or minus 100

andrezito [222]

Answer:

Let's suppose that one cubic foot of marble is x.

20x = 3400

But because the weight has a range of +-100, then 20x is between 3300 and 3500. Write it like this:

3300<20x<3500

Divide by 20:

165<x<175

The meaning of this is that one cubic foot of marble weight between 165 and 175 pounds
