Answer:

x= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to distribute each side! (you're gonna wanna learn this because you will be having to do it for the next 3 years no joke it sucks)

7(x+2) can be distributed as 7x+14 after multiplying 7 times x and 7 times 2, and 6(x+5) can be distributed as 6x+30.

Now, you have to get the x on one side to solve for x (so like x=__).

To do this, look at the equation as of now. 7x+14=6x+30.

We can minus 14 and bring that to the right, and minus 6x and bring that to the left to separate the x's and the regular numbers.

Now we have 16=x (or x=16).

Answer:

The sample mean is $\bar{x}=14.371$ min.

The sample standard deviation is $\sigma = 18.889$ min.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data set:

$\begin{array}{cccccccc}0.15&0.82&0.81&1.44&2.70&3.28&4.00&4.70\\4.96&6.49&7.25&8.03&8.40&12.15&31.89&32.47\\33.79&36.80&72.92&&&&&\end{array}$

The mean of a data set is commonly known as the average. You find the mean by taking the sum of all the data values and dividing that sum by the total number of data values.

The formula for the mean of a sample is

$\bar{x} = \frac{{\sum}x}{n}$

where, $n$ is the number of values in the data set.

$\bar{x}=\frac{0.15+0.82+0.81+1.44+2.7+3.28+4+4.7+4.96+6.49+7.25+8.03+8.4+12.15+31.89+32.47+33.79+36.80+72.92}{19}\\\\\bar{x}=14.371$

The standard deviation measures how close the set of data is to the mean value of the data set. If data set have high standard deviation than the values are spread out very much. If data set have small standard deviation the data points are very close to the mean.

To find standard deviation we use the following formula

$\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{x}\right)^2 }}{n-1} }$

The mean of a sample is $\bar{x}=14.371$ .

Create the below table.

Find the sum of numbers in the last column to get.

$\sum{\left(x_i - \overline{X}\right)^2} = 6422.0982$

$\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{x}\right)^2 }}{n-1} } = \sqrt{ \frac{ 6422.0982 }{ 19 - 1} } \approx 18.889$

Company has 189 employees that share an office that has 32 floors. If they built another building for 50 employees, how high sho

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

8 floors

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of employees is directly proportional to the number of floors that each building has.

The first building has 32 floors and it occupies 189 employees. Therefore:

189 α 32

=> 189 = k * 32 = 32k

where k = constant of proportionality

=> k = 189/32

The new building has 50 employees, therefore:

50 = kN

where N = number of floors

=> 50 = 189/32 * N

N = (50 * 32) / 189 ≅ 8 floors

The new building should have 8 floors
