Answer:

$x=6\,\,units\,,\,EF=34 \,\,units\,,\,FG=25\,\,units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $EG =59 \,\,units$

To find: $x,EF,FG$

Solution:

From the image, $EG=EF+FG$

Put $EF=8x-14\,,\,FG=4x+1\,,\,EG=59$

$8x-14+4x+1=59\\12x-13=59\\12x=59+13\\\\12x=72\\x=\frac{72}{12}=6$

$EF=8x-14=8(6)-14=48-14=34\\FG=4x+1=4(6)+1=24+1=25$

Therefore,

$x=6\,\,units\,,\,EF=34 \,\,units\,,\,FG=25\,\,units$

Need help with 14 and 2 ASAP

Elan Coil [88]

Let's start with 14, shall we? Alright, so we know that positive and negative numbers are both on opposite sides of zero- negatives on the left, positives on the right. We see that we have a positive and negative. That lets us know that we have these two values on opposite sides. As for one, we see that it's (going to assume it's negative, as that's what it looks like. If not, do the same thing on the other side.) 5/8, we can only do fourths here, it seems, because there are four intervals between the numbers. Here's where the beauty of equivalent fractions comes in. 5/8 actually equals 2.5/4 if you divide the top and bottom by 2. Now it should be easy to graph it. A little after 1, and then in between 2 and three. Hope this helps.

Which is equivalent to (9y2 – 4x)(9y2 + 4x), and what type of special product is it?

QveST [7]

This is an example of the difference of squares.

$a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)$

So to find the product of (9y² – 4x)(9y² + 4x), we use the formula for the difference of squares.

 $(9y^2 - 4x)(9y^2 + 4x)\\\\=(9y^2)^2 -(4x)^2\\\\=\boxed{\bf{81y^4 - 16x^2}}$

How do you describe the Steps to a written equation in to point slope form of the line that passes through the points (3,-2) and

AfilCa [17]

Find the equation of the line that passes through the points (3,-2) and (4,5).

5-(-2)=7/ 4-3=1

So the slope is 7. Now plugin 7 for "m" and use one of the two points for x and y

5=7(4)*b

5=28*b

5-28=b

-23=b

So y=7x-23

While her husband spent 2½ hours picking out new speakers, a statistician decided to determine whether the percent of men who en

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

$z=\frac{p_{M}-p_{W}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{M}}+\frac{1}{n_{W}})}}$ (1)

$z=\frac{0.34848-0.34782}{\sqrt{0.34831(1-0.34831)(\frac{1}{66}+\frac{1}{23})}}=0.0057$

$p_v =P(Z>0.0057)=0.4977$

The p value is a very high value and using the significance level $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the percent of men who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment is NOT significantly higher than the percent of women who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$X_{M}=23$ represent the number of men that said they enjoyed the activity of Saturday afternoon shopping

$X_{W}=8$ represent the number of women that said they enjoyed the activity of Saturday afternoon shopping

$n_{M}=66$ sample of male selected

$n_{W}=23$ sample of demale selected

$p_{M}=\frac{23}{66}=0.34848$ represent the proportion of men that said they enjoyed the activity of Saturday afternoon shopping

$p_{W}=\frac{8}{23}=0.34782$ represent the proportion of women with red/green color blindness

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the value for the test (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the percent of men who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment is higher than the percent of women who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $p_{M} \leq p_{W}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{M} > p_{W}$

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{p_{M}-p_{W}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{M}}+\frac{1}{n_{W}})}}$ (1)

Where $\hat p=\frac{X_{M}+X_{W}}{n_{M}+n_{W}}=\frac{23+8}{66+23}=0.34831$

3) Calculate the statistic

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:

$z=\frac{0.34848-0.34782}{\sqrt{0.34831(1-0.34831)(\frac{1}{66}+\frac{1}{23})}}=0.0057$

4) Statistical decision

Using the significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ , the next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a one side right tail test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z>0.0057)=0.4977$

So the p value is a very high value and using the significance level $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the percent of men who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment is NOT significantly higher than the percent of women who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment.
