What is 8(2x-3)-6x if x = 3

1 answer:

4 0

8(2x - 3)-6x

First, replace all the x's with 3s. Simplfy 2 × 3 to 6. / Your problem should look like: 8 × (6 - 3) - 6 × 3
Second, simplify 6 - 3 to 3. / Your problem should look like: 8 × 3 - 6 × 3
Third, simplify 8 × 3 to 24. / Your problem should look like: 24 - 6 × 3
Fourth, simplify 6 × 3 to 18. / Your problem should look like: 24 - 18
Fifth, simplify 24 - 18 to get 6. / Your problem should look like: 6

Answer: 6

Belle bought 18 seeds in order to plant an herb garden for her grandma. Of the seeds she bought, 10 were parsley seeds.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

0.3431

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, it can work well to consider the seeds from the group of 18 that are NOT selected to be part of the group of 15 that are planted.

There are 18C3 = 816 ways to choose 3 seeds from 18 NOT to plant.

We are interested in the number of ways exactly one of the 10 parsley seeds can be chosen NOT to plant. For each of the 10C1 = 10 ways we can ignore exactly 1 parsley seed, there are also 8C2 = 28 ways to ignore two non-parsley seeds from the 8 that are non-parsley seeds.

That is, there are 10×28 = 280 ways to choose to ignore 1 parsley seed and 2 non-parsley seeds.

So, the probability of interest is 280/816 ≈ 0.3431.

1. The national mean (μ) IQ score from an IQ test is 100 with a standard deviation (s) of 15. The dean of a college wants to kno

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

We conclude that the mean IQ of her students is different from the national average.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the national mean (μ) IQ score from an IQ test is 100 with a standard deviation (s) of 15.

The dean of a college want to test whether the mean IQ of her students is different from the national average. For this, she administers IQ tests to her 144 students and calculates a mean score of 113

Let, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ = 100 {means that the mean IQ of her students is same as of national average}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_1$ : $\mu\neq$ 100 {means that the mean IQ of her students is different from the national average}

(a) The test statistics that will be used here is One sample z-test statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, Xbar = sample mean score = 113

s = population standard deviation = 15

n = sample of students = 144

So, test statistics = $\frac{113-100}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{144} } }$

= 10.4

Now, at 0.05 significance level, the z table gives critical value of 1.96. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of z which means our test statistics will fall in the rejection region and we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean IQ of her students is different from the national average.

Lynda cuts a piece of wood for a project. The first cut is shown and can be represented by the equation y=1/4x-5.The secend cut

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Since the second line is parallel to the first, it will have the same slope. The y-intercept of the new line is 4 (because of the coordinates given) so the equation of Lynda's second cut is y = 1/4x + 4 which is choice C
