In order to find which one is or isn't, you need to solve for the value of 'x'.
2x + 15 = 35
2x = 20
x = 10

Substitute x =10, into equation. If each side are not the same (i.e. 0=2), then that's the equation that is not equivalent,

Answer is B
Double check this. Chur! :)

Hope this makes sense.

The width of the pathway is 3m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pathway be 'w'

The area will be 130 square meters

The dimensions of the garden is 10 x 7

Area = (10+w) (7+w)

130 = 70 + 17w + w^2

w^2 + 17w - 60 = 0

w^2 +20w - 3w - 60 = 0

w ( w + 20) - 3 ( w + 20) = 0

(w + 20) (w - 3) = 0

w = -20 ( or) w = 3

w is the width and cannot be negative.

So, w = 3 meters

The width of the pathway is 3m

Answer:

The minimum sample size needed is 125.

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:

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

For this problem, we have that:

$\pi = 0.25$

99% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.01$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995$ , so $Z = 2.575$ .

What minimum sample size would be necessary in order ensure a margin of error of 10 percentage points (or less) if they use the prior estimate that 25 percent of the pick-axes are in need of repair?

This minimum sample size is n.

n is found when $M = 0.1$
