3x - 8 = 2x + 15
Add 8 to both sides
3x = 2x + 23
Subtract 2x from both sides
x = 23

For this case we can make the following rule of three:
23000 -------> 100%
x --------------> 180%
Clearing the value of x we have:
x = (180/100) * (23000)
x = 41400
Answer:
you would expect about:

3+-1/1/3 the first half is 3+-1 the second half is 1/3

kolbaska11 [484]

$\bf \cfrac{3\pm1}{\frac{1}{3}}\implies 
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{3+1}{\frac{1}{3}}\\\\
\cfrac{3-1}{\frac{1}{3}}
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \cfrac{3+1}{\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{4}{1}}{\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{4}{1}\cdot \cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 3}{1\cdot 1}\implies \cfrac{12}{1}\implies \boxed{12}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3-1}{\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{2}{\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{2}{1}}{\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{2}{1}\cdot \cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 3}{1\cdot 1}\implies \cfrac{6}{1}\implies \boxed{6}$

The Bradenton Post polled 1,356 adults in the city to determine whether they wet their toothbrush before they put toothpaste on

natulia [17]

Answer:

The mean is 0.54 and the standard deviation is 0.0135.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the mean of the sampling distribution is 0.54

ii) the mean for the sampling distribution, p = 0.54

iii) therefore for the sampling distribution, q = ( 1 - 0.54) = 0.46

iv) the sample size of the distribution, n = 1356

v) $the\hspace{0.1cm} standard\hspace{0.1cm} deviation\hspace{0.1cm} s = \sqrt{\frac{p\times q}{n} } = \sqrt{\frac{0.54\times 0.46}{1356} } = 0.0135$
