Answer: $x=8$

Simplify both sides of the equation

 $2x+18+-1=33$ 

 $(2x)+(18+-1)=33$ (Combine Like Terms)

$2x+17=33$

Subtract 17 from both sides

$2x+17-17=33-17\\2x=16$

Divide both sides by 2

$2x/2=16/2\\x=8$

Answer:

$2x + 18 - 1 = 33 \\ 2x + 17 = 33 \\ 2x = 33 - 17 \\ 2x = 16 \\ \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{16}{2} \\ x = 8$

hope this helps you...

Data is collected to compare two different types of batteries. We measure the time to failure of 12 batteries of each type. Batt

-Dominant- [34]

Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, it is found that there is enough evidence to conclude that Battery B outlasts Battery A by more than 2 hours.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if it does not outlast by more than 2 hours, that is, the subtraction is not more than 2:

$H_0: \mu_B - mu_A \leq 2$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if it outlasts by more than 2 hours, that is:

$H_1: \mu_B - \mu_A > 2$

The sample means are: $\mu_A = 8.65, \mu_B = 11.23$

The standard deviations for the samples are $s_A = s_B = 0.67$

Hence, the standard errors are:

$s_{Ea} = S_{Eb} = \frac{0.67}{\sqrt{12}} = 0.1934$

The distribution of the difference has mean and standard deviation given by:

$\overline{x} = \mu_B - \mu_A = 11.23 - 8.65 = 2.58$

$s = \sqrt{s_{Ea}^2 + s_{Eb}^2} = \sqrt{0.1934^2 + 0.1934^2} = 0.2735$

The test statistic is given by:

$t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}$

In which $\mu = 2$ is the value tested at the hypothesis.

Hence:

$t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}$

$t = \frac{2.58 - 2}{0.2735}$

$t = 2.12$

The critical value for a right-tailed test, as we are testing if the subtraction is greater than a value, with a 0.05 significance level and 12 + 12 - 2 = 22 df is given by $t^{\ast} = 1.71$

Since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, it is found that there is enough evidence to conclude that Battery B outlasts Battery A by more than 2 hours.

Trigonometry question! find the vaule of x. round to the nearest tenth!

atroni [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

Use tangent:

$tangent=\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}$

We have a measure of the angle and length of the adjacent:

$\alpha=10^o,\ adjacent=500$

$\tan10^o\approx0.17633$

Substitute:

$\dfrac{x}{500}=0.17633$ multiply both sides by 500

$x=88.165\to x=88.2$

A cosine function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. The amplitude of the function is 11, the vertical shif

omeli [17]

We have been given that a cosine function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. The amplitude of the function is 11, the vertical shift is 9 units down, and the period of the function is $\frac{7\pi}{12}$ . The graph of the function does not show a phase shift. We are asked to write the equation of our function.
