Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: y = 3x - 2

Plug in x = 2

New equation: y = 3(2) - 2

Simplify: y = 6 - 2 --> y = 4

Answer: y = 4

A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 5x + 11 items and 2x - 3 items, respectively. The first p

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

3x + 14 items

Step-by-step explanation:

First plant produces 5x + 11 items

Second plant produces 2x - 3 items

First plant production - second plant production = 5x + 11 - (2x - 3)

5x + 11 - 2x + 3 = 3x + 14 items

A1,a2,a3....a30-each of these 30 sets has 5 elements.b1,b2,....bn-each of these n sets has 3 elements.union of a1,a2...a30=union

zzz [600]

the number of elements in the union of the A sets is:5(30)−rAwhere r is the number of repeats.Likewise the number of elements in the B sets is:3n−rB
Each element in the union (in S) is repeated 10 times in A, which means if x was the real number of elements in A (not counting repeats) then 9 out of those 10 should be thrown away, or 9x. Likewise on the B side, 8x of those elements should be thrown away. so now we have:150−9x=3n−8x⟺150−x=3n⟺50−x3=n
Now, to figure out what x is, we need to use the fact that the union of a group of sets contains every member of each set. if every element in S is repeated 10 times, that means every element in the union of the A's is repeated 10 times. This means that:150 /10=15is the number of elements in the the A's without repeats counted (same for the Bs as well).So now we have:50−15 /3=n⟺n=45

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{2.326(500)}{120})^2 =93.928 \approx 94$

So the answer for this case would be n=94 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma= 500$ represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that ME =120 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (b)

The confidence2 level is 98% or 0.98 then the significance level would be $\alpha=1-0.98=0.02$ and $\alpha/2=0.01$ , the critical value for this case would be $z_{\alpha/2}=2.326$ , replacing into formula (b) we got:

$n=(\frac{2.326(500)}{120})^2 =93.928 \approx 94$

So the answer for this case would be n=94 rounded up to the nearest integer
