Answer:
x = 8/7
Step-by-step explanation:
.2(.7x-5)+0.2=1.4(x-1.6) . . . . given
Eliminating parentheses, we have ...
0.14x -1 +0.2 = 1.4x -2.24
1.44 = 1.26x . . . . . . . add 2.24-0.14x to both sides
x = 1.44/1.26 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
x = 8/7 . . . . . . . . . . .simplify the fraction
__
As a repeating decimal, the value of x is ...

However, the notation 1.(142857) is usually reserved for the case where the contents of parentheses are being multiplied by the factor in front. You would need to consult your instructions to see how the decimal version of the answer should be entered. (Quite often, rounding is suggested.)

Answer: The margin of error is 12.74.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Standard deviation = 6.5
Mean = 255
Let 95% level of significance,
So, z value = 1.96
We need to find the "Margin of error":
So, it becomes :
Margin of error = Standard deviation × z-value
Margin of error = 
Hence, the margin of error is 12.74.
