Answer:

  • J = [12] +A
  • J + A = [50]

Step-by-step explanation:

If Anna's age is represented by A, then 12 more than Anna's age will be ...

  12 + A

Jason's age is said to be 12 more than Anna's age, so ...

  J = 12 + A

__

The sum of their ages will be J + A. That is said to be 50, so ...

  J + A = 50

_____

These equations can be solved by using the first to substitute for J in the second.

  (12 +A) +A = 50

  2A = 38 . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  A = 19 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  J = 12 +19 = 31 . . . find Jason's age

Jason is 31; Anna is 19.

Ira Lisetskai [31]
10w + 4w = - 84
14w = - 84
w = - 84 : 14
w = - 6  (  answer )
-----------------------------------
10 * (- 6) + 4 * (- 6) = - 84
            - 60 + (- 24) = - 84
                         - 84 = - 84

Question down below thanks
lara [203]

Answer:

-x + 1 > 3, and 4x + 6 < -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality reads x < -2, so the arrow follows any values that are less than -2. So we need to simplify each inequality in the following options to see which match x < -2.

-4x+3> -5 simplifies to x < 2 so it's wrong

-2x + 4 > -4 simplifies to x < 4 so it's wrong

-x + 1 > 3 simplifies to x < -2, so it's right

2x + 5 < -3 simplifies to x < -4, so it's wrong

4x+ 6 < -2 simplifies to x < -2, so it's right

A survey of 865 voters in one state reveals that 408 favor approval of an issue before the legislature. Construct the 95% confid
katrin [286]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all voters in the state who favor approval is (0.4384, 0.5050).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 865, \pi = \frac{408}{865} = 0.4717

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4717 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4717*0.5283}{865}} = 0.4384

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4717 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4717*0.5283}{865}} = 0.5050

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all voters in the state who favor approval is (0.4384, 0.5050).

The distance between two locations, A and B, is calculated using a third location C at a distance of 15 miles from location B. I
Jobisdone [24]
We will first calculate ∠A:
∠∠A = 180° - ( 105° + 20 ° ) = 180° - 125° = 55°
Then we will use the Sine Law:
15 / sin 55° = AB / sin 20°
15 / 0.81915 = AB / 0.342
AB · 0.81915 = 15 · 0.342
AB · 0.81915 = 5.13
AB = 5.13 : 0.81915
AB = 6.26 ≈ 6.3 miles
Answer: The distance between the locations A and B is 6.3 miles.
