Answer:

the lines represent absolute value bars

$x=0,10$

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1: Move all terms not containing |5−x| to the right side of the equation.

$3|5-x|=15$

STEP 2: Divide each term by 3 and simplify.

$|5-x|=5$

STEP 3: Remove the absolute value term. This creates a ± on the right side of the equation because |x|=±x.

STEP 4: Set up the positive portion of the ± solution.

$5-x=5$

STEP 5: Solve the first equation for x.

$x=0$

STEP 6: Set up the negative portion of the ± solution.

$5-x=-5$

STEP 7: Solve the second equation for x.

$x=10$

NOTE: The solution to the equation includes both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

$x=0,10$

Determine what type of observational study is described. Explain. Researchers wanted to determine whether there was an associati

34kurt

Answer:

B. The observational study is a cross-sectional study because information is collected at a specific point in time.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) There are three types of Observational Studies: Case-control, cross-sectional and Cohort.

2) Since the researchers collected information from those 1800 adults at a certain time, then we can call it a cross-sectional study. It does not provide solid results since the research was not done over a period to collect further information. We don't know, for example, much more than what that association deeply mean.

3) If we wonder more, then the researchers would have to track those adults over a given period, i.e. a Cohort would be necessary.

4) Moreover, it's not "retrospective" for virtually every question, always makes us look back somehow, and it does not categorize a kind of observational study.

Gas mileage actually varies slightly with the driving speed of a car (as well as with highway vs. city driving). Suppose your

natima [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the car mileage actually varies slightly with the driving speed of the car

Suppose your car averages 26 miles per gallon on the highway if your average speed is 45 miles per hour,

and it averages 18 miles per gallon on the highway if your average speed is 65 miles per hour.

The driving time for a 2500-mile trip if you drive at an average speed of 54 miles per hour

$= \frac{Distance}{Speed} = \frac{2500 }{45} \\\\= 55.56 hours.$

The driving time for a 2500-mile trip if you drive at an average speed of 65 miles per hour

$= \frac{Distance}{Speed} = \frac{2500 }{65} \\\\= 38.46 hours.$
