Determine the solution to f(x) = g(x) using the following system of equations: f(x) = 3x + 12 g(x) = -9.5x - 13

2 answers:

Answer:

x=2

Step by step:
f(x)=g(x)

3x+12= -9.5x-13 simplifies to the equation below

3x+9.5x= -13-12

12.5x= -25
next, divide by 12 on both sides to isolate the variable, x.

12.5x/12 = -25/12

x=-2

to check: 3(-2)+12= -95x(-2)-13
-6+12= 19-13

Three ice cream cones cost 8.25,at this rate how much does 2 ice creams cones cost for two cones

Sav [38]

Answer:

5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If three cones cost 8.25, then each cone should cost 2.75. (8.25 / 3 = 2.75)

Then 2 cones should cost 5.50 (2.75 x 2 = 5.50)

a rectangular prism has a square base with a side length of 10 inches. The volume of the prism is 1,600 cubic inches. Find the s

Liula [17]

Answer:

840 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the base is square and the side length is 10 inches, the areas of the base and of the top combined is 2(100 in^2).

The height of the prism comes from dividing the volume, 1600 in^3, by the area of the base, 100 in^2: It is 16 in. Then the combined areas of the four sides of the prism is 4(160 in^2).

The total surface area of the prsim is then 640 in^2 + 200 in^2, or 840 in^2.

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population standard devia

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{2.58(58.2)}{1})^2 =22546.82 \approx 22547$

So the answer for this case would be n=22547 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define some notation

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=58.2$ represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size

$ME =1$ represent the margin of error desire

The margin of error is given by this formula:

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

And on this case we have that ME =+1 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 critical value for 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. The significance would be $\alpha=0.01$ and the critical value $z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$ , replacing into formula (b) we got:

$n=(\frac{2.58(58.2)}{1})^2 =22546.82 \approx 22547$

So the answer for this case would be n=22547 rounded up to the nearest integer
