AURORKA [14]3 years ago

-3(x+4)=-15

mutiply the bracket by -3

(-3)(x)= -3x

(-3)(4)=-12

-3x-12= -15

move -12 to the other side

sign changes from -12 to +12

-3x-12+12= -15+12

-3x= -15+12

-3x= -3

divide both sides by -3

to get + x and by itself

-3x/-3= -3/-3

Answer:

x= 1

A manufacturer of t-shirts marks a shirt as "irregular" when it has defects such as crooked seams, stains, rips, or holes. A sma
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The test statistic value is 1.474.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to determine whether the plant is making a higher than expected number of irregular t-shirts.

If more than 8% of the t-shirts manufactured at a plant are classified as irregular, the manager has to do an investigation to try to find the source of the increased mistakes in the manufacturing process..

The hypothesis for this test can be defined as follows:

<em>H₀</em>: The proportion of irregular t-shirts is 8%, i.e. <em>p</em> = 0.08.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The proportion of irregular t-shirts is more than 8%, i.e. <em>p</em> > 0.08.

The information provided is:

<em>n</em> = 100

<em>X</em> = number of irregular t-shirts = 12

Compute the sample proportion as follows:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{12}{100}=0.12

Compute the test statistic as follows:

t=\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}

  =\frac{0.12-0.08}{\sqrt{\frac{0.08(1-0.08)}{100}}}\\\\=1.47441\\\\\approx 1.474

Thus, the test statistic value is 1.474.

4a-b<br> Evaluate the expression when a=5 and b=-7
stepladder [879]

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

So first we need to plug in 5 as the variable a and -7 as the variable b

4(5)-(-7)

Next we multiply the 4 and the 5 together to get 20

4(5) = 20   or    4 x 5 = 20

20-(-7)

Now we subtract negative 7 from 20

20-(-7) = 27

This can also be written as 20 plus 7 as a mathematical rule states: two negatives make a positive. So:

20-(-7) = 20 + 7

Both of these are equivalent in every sense of the word and give us our final answer of 27

A photo of a mosquito in a science book is magnified to 635% of the mosquito's actual size.If the mosquito is 16 millimetres lon
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The length of the mosquito in the picture is 117.6 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

The real size of the mosquito is 16 mm, which is 100% = 1.

In the picture, the size is magnified 635%, so it is 100+635 = 735% = 7.35. So

16mm - 1

x mm - 7.35

x = 7.35*16 = 117.6

The length of the mosquito in the picture is 117.6 mm.
