Which property of equality was used to solve this equation? x − 5 = -14 x − 5 + 5 = -14 + 5 x = -9

Answer:

Additive property

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x - 5 = -14

Required

The property used

In the 2nd step, 5 was added to both sides, i.e.

x - 5+5  = -14 + 5

<em>The above is an illustration of additive property of equality, i.e. Adding or subtracting the same variable or constant to both sides of an equation</em>

Cholesterol levels for a group of women aged 30-39 follow an approximately normal distribution with mean 190.14 milligrams per d
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

X: Cholesterol level of a woman aged 30-39. (mg/dl)

This variable has an approximately normal distribution with mean μ= 190.14 mg/dl

1. You need to find the corresponding Z-value that corresponds to the top 9.3% of the distribution, i.e. is the value of the standard normal distribution that has above it 0.093 of the distribution and below it is 0.907, symbolically:

P(Z≥z₀)= 0.093

-*or*-

P(Z≤z₀)= 0.907

Since the Z-table shows accumulative probabilities P(Z<Z₁₋α) I'll work with the second expression:

P(Z≤z₀)= 0.907

Now all you have to do is look for the given probability in the body of the table and reach the margins to obtain the corresponding Z value. The first column gives you the integer and first decimal value and the first row gives you the second decimal value:

z₀= 1.323

2.

Using the Z value from 1., the mean Cholesterol level (μ= 190.14 mg/dl) and the Medical guideline that indicates that 9.3% of the women have levels above 240 mg/dl you can clear the standard deviation of the distribution from the Z-formula:

Z= (X- μ)/δ ~N(0;1)

Z= (X- μ)/δ

Z*δ= X- μ

δ=(X- μ)/Z

δ=(240-190.14)/1.323

δ= 37.687 ≅ 37.7 mg/dl

I hope it helps!

The value of a professional basketball player's autograph rose 40% in the last year. It is now worth $294.00.
ZanzabumX [31]
I'll assume you're asking for the initial price

Let's use x to represent it
The initial price plus 40 percent of that is $294

Let's write that out mathematically

x + (40/100)x = 294
x + 0.4x = 294
1.4x = 294
x = 210

The initial price is $210

Donna wants to make trail mix made up of almonds, walnuts, raisins. she wants to mix one part almonds, two part walnuts, and thr
kicyunya [14]
Almons:walnuts:rasins=1:2:3


x=pounds of walnuts
y=pounds of almonds
z=pounds or rasins
2x=y
3x=z
subsitute


12x+9y+5z=15
12x+9(2x)+5(3x)=15
12x+18x+15x=15
45x=15
divide by 45
x=1/3
so
1/3 pound of walnuts
2x=y
2(1/3)=y=2/3
2/3 pounds of almonds
3x=z
3(1/3)=z
1=z
1 pound of rasins




1/3 pound walnuts
2/3 pound almonds
1 pound rasins

31. The length of a rectangle is 2 meters less than
Effectus [21]

Answer:

l=15

Step-by-step explanation:

let length=l

width=w

l=3w-2

w=(l+2)/3

Perimeter P=2(l+w)=2[l+(l+2)/3]=2(4l+2)/3≤43

2(4l+2)≤129

8l+4≤129

8l≤125

l≤125/8

so l=15

________________

P=2(l+w)=2(3w-2+w)=8w-4≤43

8w≤47

w≤47/8

l≤141/8-2

l≤125/8

l=15
