First multiply 0.7 by (3s+4) to get 2.1s + 2.8 and then add the 1.1s to the 2.1s and that should leave you with 1s+2.8 now you should have 1s + 2.8 = 7.9, you want to take 2.8 from both sides to bring it over to the 7.9 to make it look like 1s = 7.9 - 2.8 so now go ahead and have the 7.9 and the 2.8 subtract so you should end up with 1s = 5.1 so now you want to divide both sides by 1 and the 1s would cancel out into s and the 5.1 stays the same so now you have s = 5.1, you can always check this answer by seeing that it works so here is how you do that. Plug in your number, so you have
0.7 (3 * 5.1+4) - 1.1 * 5.1 = 7.9
here is your verification, 0.7 multiplied by all the numbers in the parentheses (3 * 5.1+4) would get you with 10.71 + 28 and you have - 1.1 * 5.1 = 7.9 so now just add the 10.71 to the 2.8 to get 13.51 and multiply the 1.1 by the 5.1 to get 5.61 and subtract the two to get 7.9 and that’s 7.9 = 7.9 so I hope this was helpful!! ^_^

Answer:

s = 5.1

Step-by-step explanation:

0.7 (3s + 4)-1.1s = 7.9\\

Multiply both sides of the equation by 10

0.7\left(3s+4\right)\cdot \:10-1.1s\cdot \:10=7.9\cdot \:10\\\\= 7\left(3s+4\right)-11s=79\\

Expand

\mathrm{Expand\:}7\left(3s+4\right)-11s:\\\quad 10s+28

Subtract 28 from both sides

10s+28-28=79-28

Simplify

10s=51

Divide both sides of the equation by 10

\frac{10s}{10}=\frac{51}{10}

Simplify

s=\frac{51}{10}\\\\Decimal = 5.1

Assume that adults were randomly selected for a poll. They were asked if they "favor or oppose using federal tax dollars to fund
ser-zykov [4K]

<u>Testing the hypothesis</u>, it is found that since the <u>p-value of the test is 0.0042 < 0.01</u>, it can be concluded that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is different of 0.5.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the <u>proportion is of 0.5</u>, that is:

H_0: p = 0.5

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the <u>proportion is different of 0.5</u>, that is:

H_1: p \neq 0.5

The test statistic is given by:

z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}}

In which:

  • \overline{p} is the sample proportion.
  • p is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are given by:

p = 0.5, n = 483 + 398 = 881, \overline{p} = \frac{483}{881} = 0.5482

The value of the test statistic is:

z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}}

z = \frac{0.5482 - 0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{881}}}

z = 2.86

Since we have a <u>two-tailed test</u>(test if the proportion is different of a value), the p-value of the test is P(|z| > 2.86), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -2.86.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.86 has a p-value of 0.0021.

2(0.0021) = 0.0042

Since the <u>p-value of the test is 0.0042 < 0.01</u>, it can be concluded that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is different of 0.5.

Find the sixth term of the geometric sequence when a4=−8 and r=0.5
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a term in the sequence multiply the previous term by r , then

a₄ = - 8 , so

a₅ = - 8 × 0.5 = - 4

a₆ = - 4 × 0.5 = - 2
