Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.3x - 10 = 0.8x - 8

start by getting all like terms to the same side

subtract 0.8 x from both sides, add 10 to both sides

0.5x = 2

divide both sides by 0.5

x = 4

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.3x - 10 = 0.8x - 8

Add 10 to both sides.

1.3x = 0.8x + 2

Subtract 0.8x from both sides.

0.5x = 2

Divide by 0.5.

x = 4.

Proof:

1.3x - 10 = 0.8x - 8

1.3(4) - 10 = 0.8(4) - 8

5.2 - 10 = 3.2 - 8

-4.8 = -4.8

Just need help with the last question please, which is the one about the confidence interval and the terms of the situation?? AS

Well, since the exam creator claims that on the same exam, nine times out of ten, seniors will have an average score within 6% of 80%, that means there is a 90% confidence interval. 9 / 10 = .90 = 90% 90% = 1.645 1.645 * .9 = 1.4805 Margin of Error - 1.4805and The margin of error is the distance from x-bar, the center of the confidence interval ,to the end of the interval. This distance is 6% of 80% which is given by: 80×6100=4.8 Therefore the margin of error is 4.8% and the confidence interval is: ({80 - 4.8}%, {80 + 4.8}%)

What is the value of n in the equation below 9n-24=4n+6

Stels [109]

Answer:

n = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

9n - 24 = 4n + 6 {Subtract 4n from both sides }

9n - 24 -4n = 6

5n - 24 = 6 {Add 24 to both sides}

5n = 6 + 24

5n = 30

n = 30/5

n = 6

Solve each given equation and show your work. Tell weather each equation has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or n

Hello!

To solve algebraic equations, you need to SADMEP it. SADMEP is only used to solve these equations, and it is an acronym for subtraction, addition, division, multiplication, exponents, and parentheses. The goal here is to get x on one side of the equation.

(a) 4x + 2(x - 1) = 10 + 2x (use the distributive property)

4x + 2x - 2 = 10 + 2x (add alike terms)

6x - 2 = 10 + 2x (subtract 2x from both sides)

4x - 2 = 10 (add 2 to both sides)

4x = 12 (divide both sides by 4)

x = 3

This equation has one solution because if you substitute 3 for x into the original equation, then both sides of the equation will be equal.

(b) 30 - x = 10 + -1(6x + 10) (use the distributive property)

30 - x = 10 + -6x - 10 (simplify)

30 - x = -6x (add x to both sides)

30 = -5x (divide both sides by -5)

x = -6

This equation has one solution because if you substitute x = -6 into the given equation, then the left and right side of the equation will be equivalent to each other.

8x = 8x + 10(0) (multiply)

8x = 8x

This equation has an infinite number of solutions because if you substitute any number into the given equation, both sides of the equation will be equal.
