Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu. A whole number is 6 more than 2 times another number. The sum of the two numb

ers is less than 50. This can be written in an inequality as x + 2x + 6 < 50, where x represents the smaller number. From the set {13, 14, 15, 16, 17}, the values of x for which the inequality holds true are .

Answer:

x = \{13,14\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + 2x + 6 < 50

Required

True values of x

We have:

x + 2x + 6 < 50\\

3x + 6 < 50

Collect like terms

3x < 50-6

3x < 44

Divide both sides by 3

x < 44/3

x < 14.67

This means that x has a value lesser than 14.67.

Hence, the valid values are:

x = \{13,14\}

In the United States, there has historically been a strong relationship between smoking and education, with well-educated people
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The proportion of former smokers with a university education is (A) 0.15

The proportion of men with a high school education that are current or former smokers is (B) 0.30

The degrees of freedom for the chi-square test for this two-way table are (B) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to note is the two way table and ensure the proper arrangement of the figures in the table (Kindly find attached a picture of how the table should look)

Now, on to the first question on the former smokers with a university education = (43+28)/459 = 71/459 = 0.15 which is option A. [This is the total sum of former smokers with college and graduate school education].

The second question on the proportion of men with a high school education that are current or former smokers = (54+31+36)/459 = 0.285 = 0.30 (approximate value) which is option B.

The third question on the degrees of freedom for the chi-square test for this two-way table can be found with the formula DF = (r-1)(c-1) where,

DF = Degree of freedom ,

r = number of rows = 3

c = number of columns = 4 [<em>Kindly note that you have to exempt the row and columns with the totals</em>]

Therefore, DF = (3-1)(4-1) =2*3 = 6 which is option B.

George is at a water park with his family. He needs to get a tube to use for one of the rides, and he chose his color first. The
anastassius [24]
I think it's because all the other colors are dark and the darker the color, the more heat it absorbs. yellow or white or basically light colors would reflect the light. this is just if it is talking in terms of temperature.

Write the explicit formula
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is no single number we can add to one number in the sequence to get to the next one, this is not arithmetic. That means it's geometric, if it's a sequence at all. To get from 2 to 6 we multiply by 3. To get from 6 to 18 we multiply by 3. To get from 18 to 54 we multiply by 3. Therefore, this is in fact geometric and the common ratio is 3. The standard form of a geometric explicit formula is

A_n=a_1(r)^{n-1 where n is the position of a number in the sequence, a1 is the first number in the sequence, and r is the common ratio. We have then

a1 = 2 and r = 3. Therefore, the explicit formula is

A_n=2(3)^{n-1 and you can use this to find the value of any number in the sequence. Very handy; much more so than the recursive formula, which requires that all the numbers in a sequence be found in order in order to get to a desired value.
