Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2=10 subtract 2 from each side

2x=8 divide each side by 2

x=4 is the correct solution.

Her error was most likely subtracting 2 from the left and adding 2 to the right

2x+2=10

2x=12

x=6

Complete the sentence.
Over [174]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal asymtote is when there are no solutions for x, so it is when y = -10.

This is because when y = -10, 0.8^x must be 0, but this is impossible. You can test this by trying 4^x/5^x. It will get super small, but never 0.

A certain element has a half life of 2.5 billion years. a. You find a rock containing a mixture of the element and lead. You det
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a first order decay, fraction remaining = 0.5n where n = number of half lives elapsed.

fraction remaining = 55% = 0.55

0.55 = 0.5n

log 0.55 = n log 0.5

-0.2596 = -0.301 n

n = 0.8625 = # of half lives elapsed

0.8625 half lives x 2.5 billion years/half live = 2.16 billion years have elapsed = age of the rock

b)  0.15 = 0.5n

log 0.15 = n log 0.5

-0.824 = -0.301 n

n = 2.74 half lives

2.5 billion years/half life x 2.74 half lives = 6.85 billion years = age of rock

We are interested in conducting a study to determine the percentage of voters of a state would vote for the incumbent governor.

Finding the sample size for estimating a population proportion.

The formula is:

n = (z/m)^2 p~(1−p~)

where:
Z is the z value of the confidence level where 95% is equal to 1.96

M is the margin of error where 0.05

And p~ is the estimated value of the proportion where it is 0.50

Solution:

n = (1.96/0.05)^2 (0.5) (1-0.5)

= 1.536.64 (0.5) (0.5)

= 768.32 (0.5)

= 384.16

This is the minimum sample size, therefore we should round it up to 385. The answer is letter c.
