1) A water park charges $5 for entry into the park and an additional $2 for each of the big waterslides. Steven spent $17 on his

visit to the water park. Which equation can be used to find the number of big waterslides, x, that Steven went on?
a.5 + 2x = 17
b.5x + 2 = 17
c. 5x + 2x = 17
d.5 + 2 = 17x


2) The $5 amount is fixed, so there must be a 5 by itslef in the equation.

The amount he paid per waterslide was $2.
He paid for
1 waterslide, 2 * 1
2 waterslides, 2 * 2
3 waterslides, 2 * 3
x waterslides, 2 * x = 2x

Now you need to add the fixed cost of 5 to the cost for x waterslides of 2x and make it equal to what he spent, $17.

Which equation above shows this?

1.) The answer is A. 5+2x = 17. The x in the equation signifies the number of times Steven went to the big slides. The 5 represents the fixed cost of the slide. The total expenditure in the water park is 17 dollars, and the 2 represents the cost of using 1 big slide.

2.) The answer is still letter A. 5 +2x =17.

There are 9,481 eligible voters in a precinct. 500 were selected at random and asked to indicate whether they planned to vote fo
maria [59]

Answer:

The confidence limits for the proportion that plan to vote for the Democratic incumbent are 0.725 and 0.775.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Of the 500 surveyed, 350 said they were going to vote for the Democratic incumbent.

This means that n = 500, \pi = \frac{350}{500} = 0.75

80% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.2, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.2}{2} = 0.9, so Z = 1.28.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.75 - 1.28\sqrt{\frac{0.75*0.25}{500}} = 0.725

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.75 + 1.28\sqrt{\frac{0.75*0.25}{500}} = 0.775

The confidence limits for the proportion that plan to vote for the Democratic incumbent are 0.725 and 0.775.
