Answer:

solution,

 $5x + 8 - 3x = - 10 \\ or \: 5x - 3x + 8 = -10 \\ or \: 2x + 8 = -10 \\ or \: 2x = -10 - 8 \\ or \: 2x = -18\\ or \: x = \frac{-18}{2 } \\ x = -9$ 

hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 8 - 3x = -10

Rearrange.

5x - 3x + 8 = -10

Subtract like terms.

2x + 8 = -10

Subtract 8 on both sides.

2x = -10 - 8

2x = -18

Divide 2 into both sides.

x = -18/2

x = -9

A home-made baseball diamond is in the shape of a square. The distance from base to base is 80 feet because of space constraints

Lelu [443]

Call x the distance from home plate to second base.

There is a right triangle formed by homeplate, first base and second base. The sides of this triangle are 80 feet and 80 feet. The hypothenuse meets Pythagoras theorem:

x^2 = 80^2 + 80^2 = 2(80)^2
x = 80√2

Then the answer is the option D.

Find the first derivative of y = sin^2(cos2x)

AveGali [126]

Hello,

y=sin²(cos(2x))
y'=2*sin(cos(2x))*cos(cos(2x))*(-sin(2x)*2)
= -4*sin(cos(2x))*cos(cos(2x))*sin(2x)

John and Liz are sharing a large pizza. John ate of the pizza, and Liz ate of the pizza. How much of the pizza is left?

Aloiza [94]

Add what they ate
2/3 + 1/4 =
11/12
Then subtract that from the whole pizza
12/12 - 11/12 =
1/12
1/12 of the pizza is left
Please mark as brainiest

Again ... Commute times in the U.S. are heavily skewed to the right. We select a random sample of 500 people from the 2000 U.S.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

We conclude that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of 500 people from the 2000 U.S. Census is selected who reported a non-zero commute time.

In this sample the mean commute time is 27.6 minutes with a standard deviation of 19.6 minutes.

Let $\mu$ = mean commute time in the U.S..

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu \geq$ 30 minutes {means that the mean commute time in the U.S. is more than or equal to half an hour}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ < 30 minutes {means that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean commute time = 27.6 minutes

s = sample standard deviation = 19.6 minutes

n = sample of people from the 2000 U.S. Census = 500

So, the test statistics = $\frac{27.6 -30}{\frac{19.6}{\sqrt{500} } }$ ~ $t_4_9_9$

= -2.738

The value of t test statistic is -2.738.

Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance so we assume it to be 5%. Now, at 5% significance level the t table gives critical values of -1.645 at 499 degree of freedom for left-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is less than the critical value of t as -2.378 < -1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour.

Write an integer whose absolute value is greater than itself.

Fed [463]

The set of an integer is called the set Z
The set of integers number is composed by the positive whole number {0, 1, 2, 3…} and the negative whole number {…-4, -3, -2, -1, 0} .We write it as follow Z= {…- 4, -3, -2, -1, 0}U{0, 1, 2, 3…}. If we assume that k is inside Z, so k can be a negative integer of positive integer. Besides the absolute value of a number is always the positive value of this number. Let be k<0 an integer different from zero, so abs(k) >0, and abs(k)> k for all value of k. For example for k= -2, and abs(k)=abs(-2)=2> -2 (always)
