Answer: 105x + -45y

Step-by-step explanation: Since there are three terms inside the parentheses in this problem, the 15 distributes through all three terms.

Before distributing however, change the -3y to plus a negative 3y.

So we have 15(2x) + 15(-3y) + 15(5x).

This simplifies to 30x + -45y + 75x.

Now combine like terms to get 105x + -45y.

A manufacturer reported a sample mean = 22.0 g and a sample standard deviation = 2.5 g based on a sample of 20 of their products

tester [92]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{1.640(2.5)}{2})^2 =4.2 \approx 5$

So the answer for this case would be n=5 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=22$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=2.5 represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

ME = 2 represent the margin of error accepted

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (2)

And on this case we have that ME =2 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (2) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} s}{ME})^2$ (3)

We can use as estimator for the population deviation the sample deviation $\hat \sigma = s$

The critical value for 90% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And in excel we can use this formla to find it:"=-NORM.INV(0.05;0;1)", and we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.640$ , replacing into formula (3) we got:

$n=(\frac{1.640(2.5)}{2})^2 =4.2 \approx 5$

So the answer for this case would be n=5 rounded up to the nearest integer

Find value of each variable! Express in simplest radical form!

Papessa [141]

Step-by-step explanation:

3. The triangle that makes up the square is a 45-90-45 triangle so x = 45°. Using Pythagorean theorem,

2y^2 = 12 ---> y^2 = 6

y = √6

4.This is an equilateral triangle of side 11 so

y = 11/2

To find x, use the definition of sine 60:

sin 60° = opp/hyp

= x/11

x = 11sin60° = (11√3)/2

I Need Help Answer Plz I Need It Badly!!!

salantis [7]

Answer: Yes it is.

Step-by-step explanation: So we are already told that segment AC is congruent to segment DC. They both have a right angle, as indicated by the angle symbol, and they share side-length BC.

According to the Hypotenuse-Leg Theorem, two right triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding, congruent leg are congruent triangles. AC and DC are hypotenuses and they are congruent. And BC, the shared side, is a corresponding congruent leg. And since they are both right triangles, we then know that the HL Theorem applies.
