$1,000,000 = 12.5% of the contract

"12.5%"  means  0.125

"of" means "times"

1,000,000 = 0.125 C

Divide each side by 0.125 :

C = 1,000,000 / 0.125 = <em>$8 million</em>

Solve the inequality algebraically. Write the solution in interval notation.<br> |9x + 10| &lt; 15
viva [34]

The given inequality is

| 9x+ 10 |

First we need to remove the absolute sign , and when we do so , we will get a compound inequality, that is

-15< 9x+10 < 15

To solve for x, first we need to get rid of 10. and for that, we have to do subtraction

-15-10

Now we need to get rid of 9, and for that, we do division

\frac{-25}{9}< x< \frac{5}{9}

So the required solution is

( \frac{-25}{9} , \frac{5}{9})

A certain car model has a mean gas mileage of 34 miles per gallon (mpg) with a standard deviation A pizza delivery company buys
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

z =\frac{33.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= -1.028

z =\frac{34.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= 0.441

An we can use the normal standard table and the following difference and we got this result:

P(-1.028

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this statement to complete the problem "with a standard deviation 5 mpg"

We have the following info given:

\mu = 34 represent the mean

\sigma= 5 represent the deviation

We have a sample size of n = 54 and we want to find this probability:

P(33.3 < \bar X< 34.3)

And for this case since the sample size is large enough >30 we can apply the central limit theorem and then we can use this distribution:

\bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And replacing we got:

z =\frac{33.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= -1.028

z =\frac{34.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= 0.441

An we can use the normal standard table and the following difference and we got this result:

P(-1.028

Simplify the equation
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

\dfrac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}

Step-by-step explanation:

There aren't any factors that cancel (except 3x). The best you can do is multiply it out.

\displaystyle\frac{\frac{3x^2-3}{x}}{\frac{3(x^2+2)}{16x^2-37x}}=\frac{3(x^2-1)}{x}\cdot\frac{16x^2-37x}{3(x^2+2)}\\\\=\frac{x(x^2-1)(16x-37)}{x(x^2+2)}=\frac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}
