Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4 =5x - 12

step1: get x by it self

you would get; 4 = 2x - 12

step2; make zero-pairs

you would get; 2x - 8

lastly; 8÷2=4x

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if the statement is true, just plug in 8 each time you see x.

3(8)+ 4 = 28

5(8) - 12 = 28

This proves the statement is true, x = 8.

Answer:

616

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to find the area of a trapezoid is: A = ½ (b $^1$ +b²) h.

b1=43

b2=45

h=14

Plug the variables in and solve.

$A=\frac{1}{2} (43+45)14$

$A=\frac{1}{2} (88)14$

$A=\frac{1}{2} (1232)$

$A=616$

if you deposit $8000 into an account paying 9% annual interest compunded semi anually how long will it take for your money to do

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

7.87 years

Step-by-step explanation:

#First we determine the effective annual rate based on the 9% compounded semi annual;

$i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.09/2)^2-1\\\\=0.09203$

#We then use this effective rate in the compound interest formula to solve for n. Given that the principal doubles after 2 yrs:

$A=P(1+i)^n\\\\A=2P, i=i_m\\\\16000=8000(1.09203)^n\\\\2=1.09203^n\\\\n=\frac{log \ 2}{log \ 1.09203}\\\\=7.87324\approx7.87 \ yrs$

Hence, it takes 7.87 years for the principal amount to double.

Answer:

C. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

-It is a statistical rule of thumb that the size of a sample must be $n\geq 30$ .

-This size is deemed adequate for the Central Limit Theorem to hold.

-At this size or greater, the shape of the resultant distribution is normal.

#It should however be noted, that for a normal distribution the CLT holds even for smaller sample sizes.
