5 and 3 = 8 liters ,  5 and 4 = 9 liters, and 3 and 4 = 7 liters.

8 + 7 + 8 + 7 = 30 liters, so he can take the 5 liter bucket with the 3 liter bucket twice, and then use the 3 liter bucket and the 4 liter bucket twice.

Solve for x in the following equation:
Feliz [49]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Make the bases the same then rewrite.

4 = 2²

2^2(2x - 5) = 2^3x + 7

2) Since the bases are the same, set the exponents equal to each other.

2(2x -5) = 3x + 7

4x - 10 = 3x + 7

4x - 3x = 7 + 10

x = 17

What’s 7= y-2/3 if you’re solving for y
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

y = 23/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of equation

7 = y + -2/3

Flip equation

y + -2/3 = 7

Add 2/3 to both sides

y + -2/3 + 2/3 = 7 + 2/3

y = 23/3

In a study, the sample is chosen by pulling 50 names from a hat What is the sampling method?
Irina18 [472]

Answer:Simple random sample

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple random sample is a subset of a statistical population in which each member of the subset has an equal probability of being chosen. A simple random sample is meant to be an unbiased representation of a group.

NOTE:

No easier method exists to extract a research sample from a larger population than simple random sampling. Selecting subjects completely at random from the larger population also yields a sample that is representative of the group being studied.
