17 = 12x - 15

<em><u>Add 15 to both sides.</u></em>

32 = 12x

<em><u>Divide both sides by 12.</u></em>

x = 2.67. (This is your answer.)

What is wrong with the following proof that for every integer n, there is an integer k such that n &lt; k &lt; n + 2? Suppose n
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

c)The proof writer mentally assumed the conclusion. He wrote "suppose n is an arbitrary integer", but was really thinking "suppose n is an arbitrary integer, and suppose that for this n, there exists an integer k that satisfies n < k < n+2." Under those assumptions, it follows indeed that k must be n + 1, which justifies the word "therefore": but of course assuming the conclusion destroyed the validity of the proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

when we claim something as a hypothesis we can only conclude with therefore at the end of the proof. so assuming the conclusion nulify the proof from the beginning

Samples of rejuvenated mitochondria are mutated (defective) in 3% of cases. Suppose 15 samples are studied, and they can be cons
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

C) At most one sample is mutated

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 15 samples, it means that 15 is the total (100%) of samples. Then, if we know that there is a chance that 3% are mutated, then we calculate the 3% of 15:

Mutated= \frac{3. 15}{100} = 0.45

This means that at most one sample is mutated, as this result is not zero (we discard answer A), and 0.45 is not more than half of the samples.
