Answer: -2.75*x - 4.7

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation we have only one variable, this means that the minimum possible number of terms will be two, one term with x, and one term without x.

We can start with the equation:

(-0.25x - 3) - (2.5x + 1.7)

Now, let's rewrite this as:

-0.25x - 3 - 2.5x - 1.7

(-0.25*x - 2.5*x) + (-3 - 1.7)

Solving the parentheses we get:

-2.75*x - 4.7

That is the equivalent expression that has the fewest possible terms

Please help!!!<br> picture below

Answer:

4^3x=4^(4x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can eliminate the first 2 options since those don’t make sense already, and the last option changed 64 to 2^6 which is correct, but when they changed the other side. They should have multiplied 8 to both x and 1 which would have made the whole term 2^(8x+8) and not 2^(8x+1). Left with the third option, 4 to the power of 3 is 64 so the left side makes sense, 4^3x=64^x, on the right side, 4^4 equals 256, so the whole exponent should multiply by 4 so from 256^(x+1) you get 4^4(x+1) giving 4^(4x+4) making the third choice the right answer.

Using the traditional formula, a 95% CI for p1 − p2 is to be constructed based on equal sample sizes from the two populations. F
inn [45]

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Width = 0.4

Let's take the z value of 95% which is = 1.96

Let's assume population proportion p1 and p2 = 0.5

For margin of error E, the relation between the width and margin of error is 2E.

i.e 2E = 0.4

E = 0.2

To find the sample size, n, let's use the formula :

n= \frac{z^2*(p_1(1-p_1) + p_2(1-p_2))}{E^2}

= \frac{1.96^2(0.5(1-0.5)+0.5(1-0.5))}{0.2^2}

= 48.02

≈ 49

Which are factors of x2 – 4x – 5? Select two options. (x – 5) (x – 4) (x – 2) (x 1) (x 5).
Greeley [361]

Answer:

(x - 5) (x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 4x - 5

= x² + x - 5x - 5

= x(x + 1) - 5(x + 1)

= (x - 5) (x + 1)
