Do the political leanings of a network affect the news they report? During the the 2018-2019 Government shutdown, a left-leaning

news network and a right-leaning network both polled voters to ask who they thought was responsible for the shutdown. All together, 56% of the poll respondents said they thought President Trump was most responsible for the shutdown, while 44% thought others were most responsible. Assume that the left-leaning network polled 900 voters and the right-leaning network polled 1100 voters. If the polling data reported by two news networks are independent of their political inclinations, how many American registered voters would we expect to say that President Trump was responsible according to the left-leaning news network?

Answer:

504

Step-by-step explanation:

We are solving for the left leaning poll

Total voters = 900 + 1100

= 2000

Number of voters who say trump was responsible = 56percent x 2000

= 1120

Number of those who say otherwise = 44% x 2000

= 880

For this network

Those who say trump is responsible = 1120 x900/2000

= 1008000/2000

= 504 registered voters

What is the equation of the line h Th ya has a y intercept of (0,-3) and passes through the point (-9,-9)
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The line equation is given as: 3 y = 2 x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, Y intercept   is at point ( 0.-3)

So, at x = 0, y = -3

or, C  = -3

Also, the point on the equation line is (x,y)  = (-9,-9)

Now, by <u>SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM</u> of a line equation,we get:

y = m x + C   :  m  = slope of line  ......... (1)

So, substituting the values of C and (x,y) , we get:

-9  = m (-9)  + (-3)  

or, -9 + 3  = - 9 m

or, m =  -6/-9  = 2/3

or, m = 2/3

Now, substitute the value of m back in to the line equation (1)

y = m x + C   \implies  y = (\frac{2}{3}) x - 3\\\implies 3y = 2x - 9

Hence, the line equation is given as: 3 y = 2 x - 9.

The length of a rectangle is 4 more than twice the width. The perimeter is 74 feet. Find the length and width of the rectangle.
mafiozo [28]
(2*length)+(2*width)=perimeter
length=4+2w
(2(4+2w))+(2(w))=74
74=(8+4w)+(2w)
74=6w+8
66=6w
w=11
length=4+2(11)
l=4+22
l=26
