ANSWER

C. x=7

EXPLANATION

The given exponential equation is

{3}^{x - 5} = 9

We rewrite the right hand side as 3 raised to exponent 2.

{3}^{x - 5} = {3}^{2}

Observe that the base of both sides of the equation are equal.

We now equate the exponents.

x - 5 = 2

Solve for x,

x = 2 + 5

x = 7

The correct choice is C.

First piece is x
second piece is y.    y=4x
third piece is z.        z=3y=12x

x+y+z=680
x+4x+12x=680
17x=680.   x=40cm   y=160cm.   z=480cm

A random sample of 36 observations has been drawn from a normal distribution with mean 50 and standard deviation 12. Find the pr
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

z= \frac{47 -50}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=-1.5

z= \frac{53 -50}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=1.5

And using a calculator, excel ir the normal standard table we have that:

P(47 \leq \bar X \leq 53) =P(-1.5 \leq Z \leq 1.5)

And we can calculate the probability like this:P(-1.5 \leq Z \leq 1.5) = P(zStep-by-step explanation:

A random sample of 36 observations has been drawn from a normal distribution with mean 50 and standard deviation 12. Find the probability that the sample mean is in the interval 47<=X<53. Is the assumption of normality important. Why?

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(50,12)  

Where \mu=50 and \sigma=12

Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

We can find the probability required like this:

z= \frac{47 -50}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=-1.5

z= \frac{53 -50}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=1.5

And using a calculator, excel ir the normal standard table we have that:

P(47 \leq \bar X \leq 53) =P(-1.5 \leq Z \leq 1.5)

And we can calculate the probability like this:

P(-1.5 \leq Z \leq 1.5) = P(z

Correct!

no matter what value we enter in for x, the statement will always be incorrect

3(1)=3(1)+4
3 = 3+4
