B is the midpoint of ac. Ab = x+9 and bc = 3x-7 find x and ac
natali 33 [55]

To solve this problem, we need to know 2 relationships:

<h2>1. AC = AB + BC</h2>

The distance of AC is the sum of AB and BC.

AC = AB + BC

We know this since the distance of going from A to C (AC) is the same as going from A to B (AB), then B to C (BC).

<h2>2. AB = BC</h2>

The distance of AB is the same as AC.

AB = BC

We know this since B is in the middle of AC, so the distance from B to A (BA) is the same as the distance from B to C (BC).

You can see the attached image (at the bottom) for a visualization of this.

<h2>Putting them together</h2>

Since we know the values of AB and BC...

AB = x+9\\BC = 3x-7

...we can put these values into our 2nd equation and solve for x:

AB = BC\\x + 9 = 3x -7

Add 7 to both sides:

x + 16 = 3x

Subtract x from both sides:

16 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

8 = x\\x = 8

Knowing x, we can find the distance of AC using our first equation.

AC = AB + BC

Let's put in the values of AB and BC:

AC = (x+9) + (3x-7)

Before we put in x = 8, we can simplify this:

AC = (x+9) + (3x-7)\\AC = x + 9 + 3x -7\\AC = x + 3x + 9 -7\\AC = 4x + 9 - 7\\AC = 4x+2

We group x and 3x and add those together. Then we subtract 7 from 9.

With this equation, we can put in x = 8:

AC = 4x +2\\AC = 4*8 + 2

Since 4 * 8 = 32:

AC = 4 * 8 + 2\\AC = 32 + 2\\AC = 34

Finally, we have found both x and AC.

<h2>Answer</h2>

x = 8

AC = 34

A survey of 340 randomly chosen US adults found that 60% of the 150 men and 50% of the 190 women ran a five-kilometer race durin
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The p-value is less than the significance level, so we will reject the null hypothesis, and conclude that at 5% significance level, the proportion for women that ran 5 km is more than the proportion of male that ran the 5 km. Thus, women are more likely to run the 5 km race.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Number of males selected; n₁ = 150

Number of females selected; n₂ = 190

Proportion of the males; p₁ = 0.6

Proportion of females; p₂ = 0.5

Let's define the hypotheses;

Null hypothesis; H0: p₁ ≥ p₂

Alternative hypothesis; Ha: p₁ < p₂

Now, the z score formula for this is;

z = (p₁ - p₂)/√(p^(1 - p^))(1/n₁ + 1/n₂))

Where;

p^ = (p₁ + p₂)/2

p^ = (0.6 + 0.5)/2

p^ = 0.55

Thus;

z = (0.6 - 0.5)/√(0.55(1 - 0.55))((1/150) + (1/190))

z = 0.1/0.0543

z = 1.84

From online p-value from z-score calculator attached, using z = 1.84, significance level = 0.05, one tailed hypothesis, we have;

P-value = 0.033

The p-value is less than the significance level, so we will reject the null hypothesis, and conclude that at 5% significance level, the proportion for women that ran 5 km is more than the proportion of male that ran the 5 km. Thus, women are more likely to run the 5 km race.

Although if we check at 0.01 significance level, we will not have the same answer as the p-value will be greater.
