If 2x + 5 = 8x, then 12x = ?A.5B.10C.15D.20
butalik [34]
<h2>Answer:</h2>10.\text{ Option B is correct}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Given the equation expressed as:

2x+5=8x

First, we need to calculate the value of "x" from the given expression.

Step 1: Given the equation 2x + 5 = 8x

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides:

\begin{gathered} 2x+5-5=8x-5 \\ 2x+\cancel{5}-\cancel{5}=8x-5 \\ 2x=8x-5 \end{gathered}

Step 3: Subtract 8x from both sides

\begin{gathered} 2x-8x=8x-8x-5 \\ -6x=\cancel{8x}-\cancel{8x}-5 \\ -6x=-5 \end{gathered}

Step 4: Divide both sides by -6

\begin{gathered} \frac{-6x}{-6}=\frac{-5}{-6} \\ x=\frac{5}{6} \end{gathered}

Step 5: Get the value of 12x. Substitute x = 5/6 into the expression to have:

\begin{gathered} 12x=12(\frac{5}{6}) \\ 12x=\cancel{12}^2(\frac{5}{\cancel{6}^1}) \\ 12x=2\times5 \\ 12x=10 \end{gathered}

Therefore the value of 12x is 10

Recall the chapter example which described the fact that the mean IQ in large, diverse populations is 100 and the standard devia
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The margin of error for the 99% confidence level for this sample is ±2.23.

None of the given figures is close to the answer:

E. None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

margin of error (ME) around the mean can be calculated using the formula

ME=\frac{z*s}{\sqrt{N} } where

  • z is the corresponding statistic of the 99% confidence level (2.576)
  • s is the population IQ standard deviation (15)
  • N is the sample size (300)

Using these numbers we get:

ME=\frac{2.576*15}{\sqrt{300} }  ≈ 2.23
