Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5x - 1 = 9

Add 1 to both sides

2/5x = 10

Multiply by 5 on both sides

2x = 50

Divide by 2 on both sides

x = 25

Check the answer:

Plug in 25 for x

2/5(25) - 1 = 9

10 - 1 = 9

9 = 9

The answer is correct.

Answer: "7 is a solution to the original equation. The value –1 is an extraneous solution."

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation $x=\sqrt{6x+7}$ can be solved by squaring both sides:

$x^2 = 6x + 7\\\\x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0\\\\(x-7)(x+1) = 0$

We can see that -1 and 7 are solutions, but make sure they are not extraneous by substituting them in the original equation:

$1 = \sqrt{-1}\\ 7 = \sqrt{49}$

The square root of 49 equals 7, but the square root of -1 is an imaginary number.

The correct choice is "7 is a solution to the original equation. The value –1 is an extraneous solution."

Biologists were studying the proportions of cats that had spotted markings on their fur in two populations of cats, C and F. An

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

If the proportions of all cats with spotted markings is the same for both populations, the probability of observing a sample difference of at least 0.62 is 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

p-value is the probability of observing a result which is at least as extreme as we calculated in our actual workings, assuming the Null hypothesis to be true.

The calculate p-value is 0.01. In the question statement we are given that the alternate hypothesis is:

"Population Proportions are not equal"

Since, Null and Alternate Hypothesis are negations of each other, the Null Hypothesis would be:

"Population Proportions are equal"

We assume the null hypothesis to be true, perform the tests on the sample and obtain a result.

The results we obtained is:

The sample difference is 0.62

Fitting all this data, in the definition of p value tell us that:

The probability of obtaining a sample difference of atleast 0.62 is 0.01, if the population proportions are same.

This matches with the option B. Therefore, the correct answer is:

If the proportions of all cats with spotted markings is the same for both populations, the probability of observing a sample difference of at least 0.62 is 0.01.
