You must get x by itself on one side of the equal sign therefore start by subtracting 20 from both sides of the equation the divide .5 from both sides of the equation.

20 + .5x - 20 = 37 -20
.5x = 17
.5x/.5 = 17/.5
x = 34

At an auditorium, 3 1/2 sections are filled with people watching a play. Exactly 3/5 of the people watching the play are parents
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 2¹/₁₀ section

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of sections filled = 3¹/₂ = 7 / 2 sections

Number of fraction parents watching play = 3/5

Find:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents]

Computation:

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = Total number of sections filled x Number of fraction parents watching play

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = [7/2] x [3/5]

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 21 / 10 sections

Fraction[Total number of sections filled filled with parents] = 2¹/₁₀ section

Rasek [7]

Answer:

The hypotheses used in this situation

H_0:\mu = 14.6

H_a:\mu \neq 14.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that  Business Week reported that at the top 50 business schools, students studied an average of 14.6 hours.

Mean = \mu = 14.6

Claim : The amount UMSL students study is different from this 14.6 hour benchmark.

The hypotheses used in this situation

H_0:\mu = 14.6

H_a:\mu \neq 14.6

Line t passes through points (10, 4) and (7, 9). Line u is parallel to line t. What is the slope of line u?
Margarita [4]

Answer: 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

concept to know: the slope of perpendicular line is always opposite reciprocal

----------------------

Step 1. Find the slope of line t

 (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=(4-9)/(10-7)

=-5/3

-------------------

Step 2. Apply the concept

Opposite reciprocal of (-5/3)=3/5

Hope this helps!! :)

9. 3x + 9y = 18<br> y = x + 2<br> Substitution method
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

x = 0

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 9y = 18 ---------eqn 1

y = x + 2---------eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 into eqn 1, for the value of y

3x + 9( x + 2) = 18

3x + 9x + 18 = 18

12x + 18 = 18

12x = 18 -18

12x = 0

Divide both sides by 12 , to get the value of x.

12x/ 12 = 0/12

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into eqn 2

y = x + 2

y = 0 +2

y = 2

Hint: to confirm the values

x = 0

y = 2

Let's take eqn 1 ,

3x + 9y = 18

3(0) + 9(2)

= 0 + 18

= 18

Correct

Let's take eqn 2

y = x + 2

Let's find y

y = 0 + 2

y = 2

Correct too
