Answer:

-52

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2)

Distribute the left side to get:

(-4x + -40) - 6

Now distribute the right side to get:

-3x + 6

Arrange the equation as the following:

-4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6

Add the like terms on each side:

-4x - 46 = -3x + 6

Do the inverse operation of each term:

-x = 52

Now we need to get x to become a positive, so we just divide -x by -1 to get x.

And 52/-1 to get our final answer of -52.

No, the on-time rate of 74% is not correct.

Solution:

As per the question:

Sample size, n = 60

The proportion of the population, P' = 74% = 0.74

q' = 1 - 0.74 = 0.26
