Which property of equality would you use to solve the equation 14x=56

Mathematics
1 answer:
galina1969 [7]3 years ago
5 0
The answer is The Multiplication or Division Principle of Equality. It states that if you multiply or divide both sides of an equation by an expression, the resulting the equation will be equivalent to the original equation.

14x = 56
x = 4 <-- Divide both sides by 14

So, x is equal to 4.<span />

Bus stop Restaurant sell 3/4 as many cheeseburgers as they do with hamburgers on any given day. If there are a total of 42 burge
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

24cb 18 hb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call C the number of cheese burger sold and H the number of hamburgers.

As the cheeseburger sold are 3/4 of hamburgers, we can represent with the following equation:

C= (3/4)H (equation 1)

The total of burgers sold are the total of cheeseburger plus the total of hamburgers, and the sum 42. The equation representing it is:

C + H = 42

Replacing C by its value of eq. 1:

(3/4)H + H = 42

(3/4)H + (4/4)H = 42

(7/4) H = 42

Dividing both sides by (7/4)

H = 42/(7/4)

H= 42*(4/7)

H= (42/7)*4

H= 6*4

H=24

Then, C is:

C=(3/4)H

C=(3/4)*24

C= 3*24/4

C=72/4

C=18

We can verify it summing C+H

C+H=24+18=42 verified!

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a technique for measuring bone health. One of the most common measures is total body b
sesenic [268]

Answer:

\bar d=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}=-0.001

s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=0.0095

-The sample is too small to make judgments about skewness or symmetry.

H0:\mu_{1}=\mu_{2}

H1:\mu_{1} \neq \mu_{2}

t=\frac{1.173-1.174}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1506^2}{8}+\frac{0.1495^2}{8}}}=-0.013

p_v =2*P(t_{(14)}

So the p value is a very high value and using any significance level for example \alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15 always p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and a we don't have a significant difference between the two means.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the difference defined as:

(Operator 1 minus Operator 2)

d1=1.326-1.323=0.003      d2=1.337-1.322=0.015

d3=1.079-1.073=0.006     d4=1.229-1.233=-0.004

d5=0.936-0.934=0.002   d6=1.009-1.019=-0.01

d7=1.179-1.184=-0.005      d8=1.289-1.304=-0.015

Now we can calculate the mean of differences given by:

\bar d=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}=-0.001

And for the sample deviation we can use the following formula:

s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}=0.0095

Describe the distribution of these differences using words. (which one is correct)

We can plot the distribution of the differences with the folowing code in R

differences<-c(0.003,0.015,0.006,-0.004,0.002,-0.01,-0.005,-0.015)

hist(differences)

And we got the image attached. And we can see that the distribution is right skewed but we don't have anough info to provide a conclusion with just 8 differnences.

-The sample is too small to make judgments about skewness or symmetry.

Use a significance test to examine the null hypothesis that the two operators have the same mean. Give the test statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

\bar X_{1}=1.173 represent the mean for the operator 1

\bar X_{2}=1.174 represent the mean for the operator 2

s_{1}=0.1506 represent the sample standard deviation for the operator 1

s_{2}=0.1495 represent the sample standard deviation for the operator 2

n_{1}=8 sample size for the operator 1

n_{2}=8 sample size for the operator 2

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the means for the two groups are the same, the system of hypothesis would be:

H0:\mu_{1}=\mu_{2}

H1:\mu_{1} \neq \mu_{2}

If we analyze the size for the samples both are less than 30 so for this case is better apply a t test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X_{1}-\bar X_{2}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{s^2_{2}}{n_{2}}}} (1)

t-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) like this:

t=\frac{1.173-1.174}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1506^2}{8}+\frac{0.1495^2}{8}}}=-0.013

Statistical decision

For this case we don't have a significance level provided \alpha, but we can calculate the p value for this test. The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

df=n_{1}+n_{2}-2=8+8-2=14

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

p_v =2*P(t_{(14)}

So the p value is a very high value and using any significance level for example \alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15 always p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and a we don't have a significant difference between the two means.

Jonathan is building an outdoor staircase for his deck. He uses 8 screws for every 2 steps. If there are 14 steps, how many scre
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

56 screws

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first we can find how many screws he needs.

So,  if he uses 2 steps for 8 screws, and has 14 steps, that means he puts screws in 7 steps ( 14÷2)

then, if he uses 8 screws, each with 8 steps, we can do 8 times 7, which is 56 screws
