Answer:

a. x=8

b.Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(2x−2)=4x−4

(2)(2x)+(2)(−2)=4x+−4(Distribute)

4x+−4=4x+−4

4x−4=4x−4

Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.

4x−4−4x=4x−4−4x

−4=−4

Step 3: Add 4 to both sides.

−4+4=−4+4

0=0

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions.

c. Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x+1)=4x+7−x

(3)(x)+(3)(1)=4x+7+−x(Distribute)

3x+3=4x+7+−x

3x+3=(4x+−x)+(7)(Combine Like Terms)

3x+3=3x+7

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

3x+3−3x=3x+7−3x

3=7

Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.

3−3=7−3

0=4

A random sample of 38 wheel chair users were asked whether they preferred cushion type A or B, and 28 of them preferred type A w

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The statement that cushion A is twice as popular as cushion B cannot be verified

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size n=38

Type a size A $X_a=28$

Type a size B $X_b=10$

Generally the probability of choosing cushion A P(a) is mathematically given by

$P(a)=\frac{28}{38}$

$P(a)=0.73$

Generally the equation for A to be twice as popular as B is mathematically given by

$P(b)+2P(b)=3P$

Therefore Hypothesis

$Null H_0: p \leq \frac{2P}{3P} \\Altenative H_A:p>\frac{2P}{3P}$

Generally the equation normal approx of p value is mathematically given by

$z=\frac{x-np_0-0.5}{\sqrt{np_0(1-p_0)} }$

$z=\frac{28-(38*2/3)_0-0.5}{\sqrt{38*2/3*1/3} }$

$z=0.75$

Therefore from distribution table

$Pvalue=1-\theta (0.75)$

$Pvalue=0.227$

Therefore there is no sufficient evidence to disagree with the Null hypothesis $H_0$

Therefore the statement that cushion A is twice as popular as cushion B cannot be verified
