Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
(y/4)-49=-9
isolate the variable
add 49 to both sides
y/4=40
multiply both sides by 4 to clear fraction
y=160
Answer:
The cumulative frequency plot is also attached below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data provided is as follows:
Age Group Frequency
0 - 9 34.9
10 - 19 35.7
20 - 29 36.8
30 - 39 38.1
40 - 49 37.8
50 - 59 37.8
60 - 69 34.5
70 - 79 27.2
80 - 89 18.8
90 - 99 7.7
100 - 109 1.7
Consider the Excel output attached.
The cumulative frequency are computed in the Excel sheet.
The cumulative frequency plot is also attached below.
From the cumulative frequency plot it can be seen that in the future most people will belong to a higher age group rather then the lower ones.
-2x + 5 = -1
subtract 5 from both sides: -2x = -6
divide each side by -2: x = 3
plug in 3: 5(3)
multiply: 15
the value of 5x is 15.
