- 32x - 40 What is the first step that I should do

1 answer:

6 0

I take it that you're trying to solve for the variable (x), so by using the order of operations (PEMDAS), the first step is to add 40 to both sides of the equation as addition cancels out subtraction.

$- 32x - 40 = 0$

$- 32x = 40$

From there you will divide by -32 and simply the fraction.

$x = - \frac {40}{32}$

$x = - \frac{5}{4}$

I hope this helps, but please let me know if this is not what you're trying to do.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the 30% represents the proportion of this specific sample (survey taken by the magazine).

It is a statistic that can be used to estimate a parameter of the population. In this case, it may be used to estimate the true proportion of "people in New York who believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year".

If a new sample is taken, a new statistic will be calculated that may or may not be equal to 30%.
