9x+18+3x=1

2 answers:

3 0

The error is in the second step they subtracted 3 from both sides but it was a 3x, which you can not do.
Correction.
9x+18+3x=1
12x+18=1
12x=-17
x=-17/12

Answer:

error is in second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 9x + 18 + 3x = 1

Now we will solve this equation and compare it with the given answer.

9x + 18 + 3x = 1

12x + 18 = 1

12x = (-17)

x = $(\frac{-17}{12})$

Now we find the error is in second step.

Calculate the size of each interior angle of a regular polygon with 14 sides

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

154.285

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a 14-gon = (14-2)*180 = 2,160 degrees. There are 14 vertexes (vertices) for a 14-gon. It is 'regular' so all these angles are equal. By dividing 2160 (sum of all angles) by 14 (total amount of angles) we can see how much each angle is worth. So the interior angle of each is 154.285 degrees.

NarStor, a computer disk drive manufacturer, claims that the median time until failure for their hard drives is more than 14,400

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The test statistics is $t = -1.727$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The data given is

330 620 1870 2410 4620 6396 7822 81028309 12882 14419 16092 18384 20916 23812 25814

The population mean is $\mu = 14400$

The sample size is n = 16

The null hypothesis is $\mu \le 14400$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu > 14400$

The sample mean is mathematically evaluated as

$\= x = \frac{\sum x_i}{n}$

$\= x = \frac{330+ 620+ 1870 +2410+ 4620+ 6396+ 7822+ 8102+8309+ 12882+ 14419+ 16092+ 18384 +20916+ 23812+ 25814 }{16}$

=> $\= x = 10799.9$

The standard deviation is mathematically represented as

$\sigma =\sqrt{\frac{ \sum (x_i - \=x)^2}{n}}$

$\sigma =\sqrt{\frac{(330- 10799.9)^2 + (620- 10799.9)^2+ (1870- 10799.9)^2 +(2410- 10799.9)^2 + (4620- 10799.9)^2 +(6396- 10799.9)^2 +(7822- 10799.9)^2 }{16}} \ ..$

$..\sqrt{ \frac{(8102 - 10799.9)^2 +(8309 - 10799.9)^2 + (12882 - 10799.9)^2 + (14419 - 10799.9)^2 + (16092 - 10799.9)^2 + (18384 - 10799.9)^2 +(20916 - 10799.9)^2 }{16}} \ ...$
