This question is referred to two similar triangles.

One triangle has sides x and x - 2.

The other triangle has the respective sides x + x + 5 and x - 2 + x + 1

Then you can state a proportionality relation between the sides>

[x + x + 5] / x = [x - 2 + x + 1] / [x - 2]

=> [2x + 5] / x = [2x - 1] / [x - 2]

=> (2x + 5)(x - 2) = (2x - 1)x

=> 2x^2 - 4x + 5x - 10 = 2x^2 - x

=> x - 10 = - x

=> 2x = 10

=> x = 10 / 2

=> x = 5

Answer: x = 5

A computer manufacturing company has sent a mail survey to 2,800 of its randomly selected customers that have purchased a new la
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion of customers satisfied with their new computer is (0.77, 0.83).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 96% confidence interval for the proportion.

We consider the sample size to be the customers that responded the survey (n=800), as we can not assume the answer for the ones that did not answer.

The sample proportion is p=0.8.

p=X/n=640/800=0.8

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.8*0.2}{800}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0002}=0.014

The critical z-value for a 96% confidence interval is z=2.054.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=2.054 \cdot 0.014=0.03

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8-0.03=0.77\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8+0.03=0.83

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.77, 0.83).

( 7x + 1/2) + ( 7x - 7 and 1/2) Simplify
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The answer will be 7(2x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Convert 7 and 1/2 to improper fraction. Use this rule: a b/c = ac + b/c

7x +  \frac{1}{2}  + 7x -  \frac{7 \times 2 + 1}{2}

2) Simplify 7 × 2 to 14 .

7x +  \frac{1}{2}  + 7x  -  \frac{14 + 1}{2}

3) Simplify 14 + 1 to 15.

7x +  \frac{1}{2}  + 7x -  \frac{15}{2}

4) Collect like terms.

(7x + 7x) + ( \frac{1}{2}  -  \frac{15}{2} )

5) simplify.

14x - 7

6) Factor out the common term 7.

7(2x - 1)

Therefor, the answer is 7( 2x - 1 ).
