(5x - 17) + (3x - 11)= 180 [ Linear Pair ]
= 8x - 28= 180
= 8x= 208
= x = 208/8
= x = 26

3x-11
= 3*26 - 11
=67

Now, we have:
(2y+5)+90+(3x-11)=180 [Linear Pair]

Substituting (3x-11),
(2y+5) + 90 + 67= 180
= (2y+5)+157= 180
= 2y + 162= 180
= 2y= 18
=y = 18/2
=y= 9

Therefore, x= 26, and y= 9

HELPP! ASAP PLS!! Find the surface area of the composite solid. Leave your answer in exact terms.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the surface area of the clyinder and find the area circles and subtract

Then find the surface area of a cone, remove the circle area and double it.

Clyinder surface area (without circle area) 2πrh+2πr2=2·π·4·6+2·π·42≈251.32741

251.32741 - 50.2 - 50.2

Cone area: A=πr(r+h2+r2)=π·4·(4+32+42)≈113.09734

113.09734 - 50.2 - 50.2

Total: 12.69734 + 150.92741 = 163.62475

In a survey of 603 adults, 98 said that they regularly lie to people conducting surveys. Create a 99% confidence interval for th

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The population proportion is estimated to be with 99% confidence within the interval (0.1238, 0.2012).

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for estimating the population proportion by a confidence interval is given by:

$\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha /2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}\times(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

Where:

$\hat{p}$ is the sample's proportion of success, which in this case is the people that regularly lie during surveys,

$z_{\alpha /2}$ is the critical value needed to find the tails of distribution related to the confidence level,

$n$ is the sample's size.

First we compute the $\hat{p}$ value:

$\hat{p}=\frac{successes}{n}=\frac{98}{603}=0.1625$

Next we find the z-score at any z-distribution table or app (in this case i've used StatKey):

$z_{\alpha /2}=2.576$

Now we can replace in the formula with the obtained values to compute the confidence interval:

$\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha /2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}\times(1-\hat{p})}{n}}=0.1625\pm 2.576\times\sqrt{\frac{0.1625\times(1-0.1625)}{603}}=(0.1238, 0.2012)$
