Evaluate the expression- 2(y+1)for y=2

This is due tomorrow, so please help and show step by step

Answer:

slope = 3/2
y-intercept = 3
x-intercept = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the coefficient of x when the equation is of the form ...

y = (something).

Here, we can put the equation in that form by subtracting 12x and dividing by the coefficient of y:

12x -8y = -24 . . . . . given

-8y = -12x -24 . . . . .subtract 12x

y = 3/2x +3 . . . . . . . divide by -8

This is the "slope-intercept" form of the equation. Generically, it is written ...

y = mx + b . . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

So, the above equation answers two of your questions:

slope = 3/2

y-intercept = 3

__

The x-intercept is found fairly easily from the original equation by setting y=0:

12x = -24

x = -24/12 = -2 . . . . . the x-intercept

_____

A graph of the equation can also show you these things. The graph shows a rise of 3 units for a run of 2, so the slope is rise/run = 3/2. The line crosses the axes at x=-2 and y=3, the intercepts.

Assuming that the population is normally distributed, construct a 9090% confidence interval for the population mean for each o

jasenka [17]

Given:

Set A: 1 4 4 4 5 5 5 8

Mean: 4.5

Standard dev: 1.9

Set B:

Mean: 4.5

Standard dev: 2.45

% = 90

Set A:

Standard Error, SE = s/ √n = 1.9/√8 = 0.67

Degrees of freedom = n - 1 = 8 -1 = 7

t- score = 1.89457861

Width of the confidence interval = t * SE = 1.89457861* 0.67 = 1.272685913

Lower Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar - width = 4.5 - 1.272685913 = 3.23

Upper Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar + width = 4.5 + 1.272685913 = 5.77

The 90% confidence interval is [3.23, 5.77]

Set B:

Standard Error, SE = s/ √n = 2.45/√8 = 0.87

Degrees of freedom = n - 1 = 8 -1 = 7

t- Score = 1.89457861

Width of the confidence interval = t * SE = 1.89457861* 0.87 = 1.641094994

Lower Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar - width = 4.5 - 1.641094994 = 2.86

Upper Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar + width = 4.5 + 1.641094994 = 6.14

The 90% confidence interval is [2.86, 6.14]

We can obviously see that sample B has more variation in the scores than sample A. The fact that the standard deviation is 2.45 for B and 1.9 for A). Therefore, they yield dissimilar confidence intervals even though they have the same mean and range.

The initial population of a town in the year 2010 was 20 000. By 2014, the population had grown exponentially to 32 500 people.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

P = 20000×1.625^(n/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential equation can be written using the given data:

value = (initial value)×(growth factor in period)^(n/(period))

Here, the growth is by a factor of 32500/20000 = 1.625, and the period is 4 years. Then your exponential equation is ...

P = 20000×1.625^(n/4)

Equations

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

2x+12=24

first you subtract 12 from both sides

2x+12=24

-12. -12

The 12-12 should cancel itself, the rest of the equation you bring down to get

2x=12 (because 24-12=12)

Now you have 2x=12.
you then divide 2x by both sides.

2x=12

/2x=/2x

The 2x/2x cancels itself out so you then solve for 12/2x.

For this you just divide 12/2 which is 6!

x= 6 is your final answer.
to check this equation you can plug your number back into x to see if it is true! 2(6)+12=24.
6 times 2 is 12 and 12+12 is 24 so your answer (6) is true!

hope this helps! :D
