3x +2= 5x
-3x
2= 2x
/2
1= x
So first I got all the x’s on one side and the whole numbers on the other side. So we had 2 on one side and 2x on the other. From there we divided by the number of x’s which was 2 so we can get one x only. So 2/2= 1 so x =1
Answer: n = 14
Step-by-step explanation: margin of error = critical value × σ/√n
Where σ = population standard deviation = 1
n = sample size = ?
We are to construct a 99% confidence interval, hence the level of significance is 1%.
The critical value for 2 tailed test at 1% level of significance is gotten from a standard normal distribution table which is 2.58
Margin of error = 0.7
0.7 = 2.58×1/√n
0.7 = 2.58/√n
By cross multipying
0.7×√n = 2.58
By squaring both sides
0.7^2 × n = 2.58^2
0.49 × n = 6.6564
n = 6.6564/0.49
n = 14
Answer: a bigger or equal to 20
Explanation:
2a/5 - 2 _> a/4 + 1
8a/20 - 40/20 _> 5a/20 + 20/20
8a - 40 _> 5a + 20
3a _> 60
a _> 20
