Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+17= 42

Subtract 17 from each side

5x+17-17= 42-17

5x = 25

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 25/5

x = 5

The amount of grain in a silo is changing at a rate of –35.2 kilograms per hour.

Ainat [17]

Change=change per hour times number of hours
change per hour=-35.2
hours=1.25
change=-35.2 times 1.25
change=-44

answer is
hmm
the change is 44, but it is in a negative direction

either 44 or -44, not sure

Write y=-3/4 x-2 in standard form using integers.

jeyben [28]

Standard form is Ax + By = C

y = (-3/4)x - 2

Multiply both sides by 4.

4y = -3x - 8

Add 3x on both sides

3x + 4y = -8

Your final answer is 3x + 4y = -8.

The sequence an = 8, 13, 18, 23, ... is the same as the sequence a1 = 8, an = an-1 + 5.

harkovskaia [24]

Actually, this answer would be true. Why?

The first equation is: a(sub n) = 8, 13, 18, 23

The second is: a(sub 1)=8 ; a(sub n)= a(sub n-1)+5
if you wish to find the second term, plug two into the equation for n
8+5=13
to find the third, plug the second term, 13, in for n.
13+5=18.

Hope this helped! I know it's a bit on the late side, but at least you can get the general idea!

A study was conducted to measure the effectiveness of hypnotism in reducing pain. The measurements are centimeters on a pain sca

blondinia [14]

The confidence interval for mean of the "before-after" differences is $\fbox{(-0.4037,1.8037)}$

Further explanation:

Find the difference between the before pain and the after pain.

Difference = before-after

Kindly refer to the Table for the difference of between the before and after pain.

Sum of difference = $5.6$

Total number of observation = $8$

Mean of difference = $0.7$

Sample standard deviation $s$ = $1.3201$

Level of significance = $5\%$

Formula for confidence interval = $\left( \bar{X} \pm t_{n-1, \frac{\alpha}{2}\%} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} \right)$

confidence interval = $\left( 0.7 \pm t_{8-1, \frac{5}{2}\%} \frac{1.3201}{\sqrt{8}} \right)$

confidence interval = $\left( 0.7 \pm t_{7, \frac{5}{2}\%} \frac{1.3201}{\sqrt{8}} \right)$

From the t-table.

The value of $t_{7, \frac{5}{2}\%$ = $2.365$

Confidence interval = $( 0.7 \pm 2.365}\times \frac{1.3201}{\sqrt{8}}) \right)$

Confidence interval = $\left( 0.7 - 2.365}\times \0.4667,0.7 + 2.365}\times \0.4667) \right$

Confidence interval = $(0.7-1.1037,0.7+1.1037)$

Confidence interval = $\fbox{(-0.4037,1.8037)}$

The $95\%$ confidence interval tells us about that $95\%$ chances of the true mean or population mean lies in the interval.

Yes, the hypnotism appear to be effective in reducing pain as confidence interval include includes the positive deviation from the mean.

Pre-algebra Due urgently Tysm

leva [86]

Answer:

y = 4 / x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Insert x equation for variable x

y = 2(-y+6)

simplify

y= -2y + 12

add 2y to both sides

3y= 12

divide both sides by 3

y = 4

Insert 4 as y in y =2x

4=2x

divide both sides by 2

x=2
