12 = -4(-6x -3) +24

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

12 = 24 - 4 (-6 x - 3)

-4 (-6 x - 3) = 24 x + 12:

12 = 24 x + 12 + 24

Grouping like terms, 24 x + 12 + 24 = 24 x + (12 + 24):

12 = 24 x + (12 + 24)

12 + 24 = 36:

12 = 24 x + 36

12 = 24 x + 36 is equivalent to 24 x + 36 = 12:

24 x + 36 = 12

Subtract 36 from both sides:

24 x + (36 - 36) = 12 - 36

36 - 36 = 0:

24 x = 12 - 36

12 - 36 = -24:

24 x = -24

Divide both sides of 24 x = -24 by 24:

(24 x)/24 = (-24)/24

24/24 = 1:

x = (-24)/24

The gcd of -24 and 24 is 24, so (-24)/24 = (24 (-1))/(24×1) = 24/24×-1 = -1:

Answer:  x = -1

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: 150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

m = mile

40 + 0.25m = 25 + 0.35m

0.25 * 150 = 37.5

37.5 + 40 = 77.5

0.35 * 150 = 52.5

52.5 + 25 = 77.5

77.5 = 77.5

Amanufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 433 gram setting. It is
ankoles [38]

Answer:

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are under filled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Population mean, μ = 433

Sample size, n = 26

xbar = 427

Variance, s² = 324 ; Standard deviation, s = √324 = 18

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 433

H0 : μ < 433

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

(427 - 433) / (18 / √26)

-6 / 3.5300904

T = -1.70

The Pvalue :

df = 26-1 = 25 ; α = 0.05

Pvalue = 0.0508

Since Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject the Null and conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled
