Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² – 8x = 20 ⇌ x² – 2(4)x = 4 + 16 ⇌ x² – 2(4)x - 16 = 4 ⇌ (x - 4)² = 4

⇌ x - 4 = 2 or x - 4 = -2 ⇌ x = 6 or x = 2

$-6x-4y+2+3x+12y-6=(-6x+3x)+(-4y+12y)+(2-6)\\\\=-3x+8y-4\\\\-15x-3y+16x+4y=(-15x+16x)+(-3y+4y)=x+y\\\\-6x-4y+2+3x-12y+6=(-6x+3x)+(-4y-12y)+(2+6)\\\\=-3x-16y+8\\\\2x+2y-6x-3+2y+6=(2x-6x)+(2y+2y)+(-3+6)\\\\=-4x+4y+3$

Which graph represents the solution please explain

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Graph D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve the equation

5 + 8x < 3(2x + 4)

5 + 8x < 6x + 12

Collect like terms

-6x + 8x < -5 + 12

2x < 7

Divide both sides by 2

x < 7/2

x < 3½

The graph that shows that x < 3½ is graph D.

For an analysis of variance, if the between-group estimate of the population variance is 30, and the within-group estimate is 25

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the variance between - group estimate is = 30

And the variance within - group estimate is =25

Now we have to calculate the F ratio

F ratio is defined as the ratio of variance between the group and variance within the group

So F ratio $=\frac{30}{25}=1.2$

So for the given variance F ratio will be 1.2
