Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(8−12x)+8x=−25x+52

(2)(8)+(2)(−12x)+8x=−25x+52(Distribute)

16+−24x+8x=−25x+52

(−24x+8x)+(16)=−25x+52(Combine Like Terms)

−16x+16=−25x+52

Step 2: Add 25x to both sides.

−16x+16+25x=−25x+52+25x

9x+16=52

Step 3: Subtract 16 from both sides.

9x+16−16=52−16

9x=36

Step 4: Divide both sides by 9.

9x/9 = 36/9

x = 4

16. Suppose Eva has 12 3/4 pounds of flour. The day's baking will require triple that amount.

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$12 \frac{3}{4} \times3$

In order to find the answer, we have to convert the mixed number and then multiply by three, since how Eva needs triple the amount for today's baking.

$12 \frac{3}{4} \times3$
$12\frac{3}{4} =4\times12=48+3=51=\frac{51}{4}$
$3=\frac{3}{1}$
$\frac{51}{4} \times\frac{3}{1}$
$51\times3=153$
$4\times1=4$
$=\frac{153}{4}$

<u>Convert the improper fraction back into a mixed number:</u>

$\frac{153}{4}$
$\frac{153}{4} =153\div4=38\frac{1}{4}$
$=38\frac{1}{4}$

Which means Eva needs "38 1/4 pounds of flour" or option D for today's baking.

A data set contains information on the grams of fat and number of calories in 28 different fast foods. The correlation coefficie

k0ka [10]

Using a calculator, it is found that for the two-tailed test of significance, the p-value is of 0.9195.

The correlation coefficient is also called <u>Pearson's r-score</u>, and is used for two-tailed tests. To find the p-value, the information needed is:

The value of the Pearson's r-score, that is, the value of the correlation coefficients.
The sample size.

In this problem, we have that the correlation coefficient is of r = 0.02, with a sample size of n = 28.

Using it as the input for a r-score calculator, the p-value is of 0.9195.
