Answer:

$x=-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{3}\left(3x+9\right)=-2\left(2x+6\right)$

Expand:

$\frac{2}{3} *3x+\frac{2}{3} *9=-2*2x+(-2)(6)$

$2x+6=-4x-12$

Subtract 6 from both sides:

$2x+6-6=-4x-12-6$

$2x=-4x-18$

Add 4x to both sides:

$2x+4x=-4x-18+4x$

$6x=18$

Divide both sides by 6:

$\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{-18}{6}\\$

$x=-3$

The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land is 76 m. Its length is 3 more than 4 times the width. What is the area of the plot o

Elza [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter =76 m

L=3+w

2L+2W=76

2(3+W)+2W=76

6+2w+2w=76

4w=70

w=70/4

w=17.50

L=17.50+3=20.50

A=L*W=17.50*20.50=358.75m^2

A professional basketball team made 37.9% of its three-point field goals in one season. If 80 three-point field goal attempts ar

Answer:

The probability that more than 35 were made is 0.14686.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a professional basketball team made 37.9% of its three-point field goals in one season.

80 three-point field goal attempts are randomly selected from the season.

Let $\hat p$ = sample proportion of three-point field goals made in one season.

The z-score probability distribution for the sample proportion is given by;

Z = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}} }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, p = population proprotion of three-point field goals = 37.9% = 0.379

n = sample of three-point field goal attempts = 80

$\hat p$ = sample proportion of three-point field goals = $\frac{35}{80}$ = 0.4375

Now, if 80 three-point field goal attempts are randomly selected from the season, the probability that more than 35 were made is given by = P( $\hat p$ > 0.4375)

P( $\hat p$ > 0.4375) = P( $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}} }$ > $\frac{0.4375-0.379}{\sqrt{\frac{0.4375(1-0.4375)}{80}} }$ ) = P(Z > 1.05) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 1.05)
