Answer:

x= -1 or x= -11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  f(x)=2|x+6|-4

To Find : value of x

Solution :

Since we are given that f(x)=6

And f(x)=2|x+6|-4

⇒2|x+6|-4 =6

⇒2|x+6|=6+4

⇒2|x+6|=10

⇒|x+6|=\frac{10}{2}

⇒|x+6|=5

Now absolute mode :  the absolute value or modulus |x| of a real number x is the non-negative value of x without regard to its sign. Namely, |x| = x for a positive x, |x| = −x for a negative x

⇒x+6=5 or x+6= -5

⇒x=5-6 or x= -5-6

⇒x= -1 or x= -11

Thus for x = -1 or x =-11 , f(x) =6

If 6=2|x+6|-4
Then 10=2|x+6|
|x+6|=5
which means x+6=5 OR x+6=-5
so x=-1 OR x=-11

A researcher is interested in determining the mean energy consumption of a new
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The most appropriate  value of the critical value is 2.289.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher takes a random sample of 41 bulbs and determines  that the mean consumption is 1.3 watts per hour with a standard deviation of 0.7.

We have to find that when constructing a 97% confidence interval, which would be the most appropriate  value of the critical value.

Firstly, as we know that the test statistics that would be used here is t-test statistics because we don't know about the population standard deviation.

So, for finding the critical value we will look for t table at (41 - 1 = 40) degrees of freedom at the level of significance will be \frac{1 - 0.97}{2} = 0.015 .

Now, as we can see that in the t table the critical values for P = 1.5% are not given, so we will interpolate between P = 2.5% and P = 1%, i.e;

     \frac{0.015 - 0.025}{0.025-0.01}= \frac{\text{Critcal value}-2.021}{2.021-2.423}

So, the critical value at a 1.5% significance level is 2.289.

"Large Sample Proportion Problem. Surveys were conducted in multiple countries and respondents were asked if they felt political
melomori [17]

Answer: 0.0158

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The data for the United States is that out of 1,000 sampled, 470 indicated yes, they felt political news was reported fairly.

According to the given information we have,

Sample size : n= 1000

Sample proportion: \hat{p}=\dfrac{470}{1000}=0.47

The standard error for proportion is given by :-

S.E.=\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

S.E.=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.47(1-0.47)}{1000}}

S.E.=\sqrt{0.0002491}

S.E.=0.0157829021412\approx0.0158

[Rounded to the nearest four decimal places.]

Hence, the standard error for the confidence interval = 0.0158

Instructions: Use the ratio of a 30-60-90 triangle to solve for the variables.
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

x=20

y=10\,\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle we have the following trigonometric equations:

tan(60^o)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\\sqrt{3} =\frac{y}{10} \\y=10\,\sqrt{3}

and also:

cos(60^o)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\frac{1}{2} =\frac{10}{x}\\x=20
