Answer: - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 8 = -2

3x = -2 + 8

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

so, therefore x - 6 => 2 - 6 = -4

Answer:

x-6 = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 8= -2

Add 8 to each side

3x - 8+8= -2+8

3x = 6

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 6/2

x =2

We want to find x-6

2-6 = -4

Is the following sequence arithmetic? If so, identify the common difference.
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

D(Yes;-5) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check 2 consecutive numbers

A(1) = 18

A(2) =13

=> common difference=A(2)-A(1) = 13-18 =-5

(Also, we see A(4)-A(3) = A(3)-A(2) =-5)

80% of Americans start the day with a cereal breakfast. Based on this information, determine if the following statement is true
omeli [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

A binomial distribution is a data distribution where there are only 2 possible outcomes A or B.

If probability p is assigned to outcome A, and  probability q is assigned to outcome B, then q = 1 - p.

In a binomial distribution, the mean is np, where n is the size of the sample, and the skewness is

\frac{1-2p}{\sqrt{npq}}

As you can see, if p is different to 0.5 a binomial distribution is always skewed, and the skewness is independent of the sample size. Moreover, the sign of the skew only depends on the sign of 1 -2p

In this problem, we could have named:

<u>Event A</u> : The interviewed answered “YES” to the question “Do you start the day with a cereal breakfast?”

<u>Event B</u>: The interviewed answered “NO” to the question “Do you start the day with a cereal breakfast?”

In this case p = 0.8 and the skewness would be negative, so the distribution would be left skewed.

11) Which situation can be represented by 17.35x &gt; 624.60?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

  J Darren earns $17.35 per hour at his job. How many hours does he need to work in order to earn more than $624.60?

Step-by-step explanation:

You're looking for a situation in which the number 17.35 needs to be multiplied by an unknown quantity.

Scenarios F and G involve addition of 17.35 to something.

Scenario H would correspond to the inequality ...

  17.65x < 624.60

The sign of the given inequality is >, so scenario H is not the one.

__

In scenario J, Darren's total earnings for x hours will be 17.35x, and we want to find x such that this total is greater than 624.60. This matches the given inequality:

  17.35x > 624.60 . . . . . . answer choice J
