If x = 1, then 3*1 = 3 which when modded with 5, we get 3 as a remainder. In other words, 3/5 = 0 remainder 3. We don't use the quotient at all when it comes to modular arithmetic. All we care about is the remainder.

If x = 2, then 3*2 = 6 which leads to remainder 1 when we divide by 5. Therefore, 3x = 1 (mod 5) when x = 2.

If x = 3, then 3*3 = 9 = 4 (mod 5) because 9/5 = 1 remainder 4.

So 3x = 4 (mod 5) when x = 3.

<h3>The final answer is C) 3</h3>

We don't need to check D since x = 3 is a solution and it's smaller than x = 4.

If you wanted to check x = 4, then 3*4 = 12 = 2 (mod 5) because 12/5 yields a remainder of 2.

Find the 95% confidence interval for estimating the population mean μ

AVprozaik [17]

We first need to determine whether we are dealing with means or proportions in this problem. Since we are given the sample and population mean, we know that we are dealing with means.

Since we have one sample mean, this means we are creating a confidence interval for one sample (1 Samp T Int).

Normally we would check for conditions, but since this is not formulated as a "real-world scenario" type problem, it is hard to check for randomness and independence. Therefore, I will be excluding conditions from this answer.

<h3>Confidence Interval Formula</h3>

The formula for constructing a <u>confidence interval for means</u> is as follows:

$\displaystyle \overline{x} \pm t^*\big{(}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } \big{)}$

We are given these variables:

$\overline{x}=50$
$n=60$
$\sigma=10$

Plug these values into the formula for the confidence interval:

$\displaystyle 50\pm t^* \big{(}\frac{10}{\sqrt{60} } \big{)}$

<h3>Finding the Critical Value (t*)</h3>

In order to find t*, we can use this formula:

$\displaystyle \frac{1-C}{2}=A$

Calculating the z-score associated with "A" will give us t*.

So, let's plug in the confidence interval 95% (.95) into the formula:

$\displaystyle \frac{1-.95}{2}=.025$

Use your calculator or a t-table to find the z-score associated with this area under the curve.. you should get:

$t^*=1.96$

<h3>Constructing Confidence Interval</h3>

Now, let's finish the confidence interval we created:

$\displaystyle 50\pm 1.96 \big{(}\frac{10}{\sqrt{60} } \big{)}$

We can calculate the confidence interval, using this formula, to be:

$\boxed{(47.4697, \ 52.5303)}$

<h3>Interpreting the Confidence Interval</h3>

We are 95% confident that the true population mean μ lies between <u>47.4697 and 52.5303</u>.

Mr. and Mrs. Nelson are going to build a new home. They need to have working drawings of their house plans created by a design f

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Options 2), 4), and 5) are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rock the House Digital Designs</u>

Cost = $(500 + 50h)

<u>Elegant Home Architects</u>

Cost = $(75h)

===========================

<u>Answer options:</u>

1)The expression 50h represents the total charge for Rock the House Digital Designs.

Incorrect. Additional $500 charged.

2)The expression 75h represents the total charge for Elegance Home Architects.

Correct

3)The expression 500 + 75h + 50h represents the total amount the Nelsons will spend working drawings of their new house plans.

Incorrect. They will choose one of the options.

4)If the Nelsons hire the design firm for 15 hours, then Elegance Home Architects will be cheaper.

Correct. It will cost 15*75 = $1125. Alternative costs 500 + 50*15 = $1250

5)If the Nelsons hire the design firm for 25 hours, then Rock the House Digital Designs will be cheaper.

Correct. It will cost 500+25*50 = $1750. Alternative cost is 25*75 = $1875

A parabola has a vertex at (0,0). The focus of the parabola is located at (4,0). What is the equation of the directrix? x=−4 y=−

rewona [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex and focus are horizon aligned, so the parabola is horizontal and the directrix is a vertical line.

The vertex is halfway between focus and directrix. Directrix: x = -4
