You do 5 times x and 5 times 4 and you’d end up with equation that says 5x-4=6. The you add 4 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the 4. Your equation should now say 5x=10. You divide both sides by 5 and you have your answer x=2

Answer:

26/5 or Simplified form would be 5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute 5 to (x-4) by multiplying them.

5x-20=6

2. Add 20 to 6.

5x=20 plus 6.

3. Divide 5 to 26.

5x divided by 26.

Answer: It would be 26/5 but simplified it would be 5.2

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ { \sf{ - 13 {x}^{2}  - 10x + 14}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{ - 9x - x - 7 {x}^{2}  - 6 {x}^{2}  + 8 + 6}

Collect like terms

⇒\sf{ - 7 {x}^{2}  - 6 {x}^{2}  - 9x - x + 8 + 6}

⇒\sf{ - 13 {x}^{2}  - 10x + 8 + 6}

Add the numbers

⇒\sf{ - 13 {x}^{2}  - 10x + 14}

Hope I helped!

A company manufactures 2,000 units of its flagship product in a day. The quality control department takes a random sample of 40
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The recommended sample size n for point estimates is:

n = NX / (N + X - 1)

where N is the population size, and X is defined as:

X = Z² p (1 - p) / E²

where Z is the critical value, p is the sample proportion, and E is the margin of error.

Assume a confidence level of level of 95% and a margin of error of 5%.

α = 0.05, Z(α/2) = 1.96

E = 0.05

Of the 40 units tested, 2 had lifespans less than 26 days.  So the proportion is:

p = 2/40 = 0.05

Therefore:

X = (1.96)² (0.05) (1 - 0.05) / (0.05)²

X = 73

Given N = 2000:

n = (2000) (73) / (2000 + 73 - 1)

n = 70.45

Rounding, the recommended sample size is 70.
