Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of 84 are: $\pm: 1, 84, 2, 42, 3, 28, 4, 21, 6, 14, 7, 12 ...$

7 and 12 can make 5. Since 84 is negative and 5 is positive, the larger number of the two must be the positive number in the factorization. In this case, it is

$(x+12)(x-7)$

A student must leave for campus in 10 mins or he will be late for class. Unfortunately he is snowed in. He can shovel the drivew

Leno4ka [110]

Since if he gets the driveway done in 20 minutes he gets 1/20th of the driveway done in 1 minute (if x=20 then x/20=1 by dividing both sides by 20) and if his brother gets 1/12th of the driveway done in one minute, then if t represents the time it takes to shovel the driveway, t/20+t/12=1 driveway shoveled as 1/20+1/12=amount they can do in 1 minute, so t/20+t/12 is how much they can do in t minutes. Multiplying both sides by 20*12=240, we get 12t+20t=32t=240. Dividing both sides by 32, we get 240/32=7.5 minutes to shovel the driveway.

AlekseyPX

You can treat x and 2x+1 just as though they are real numbers.

So f(2x+1) = 3(2x+1) - 5 = 6x + 3 - 5 = 6x - 2

In the above, I made use of something called the distributive law which says that if a,b and c are real numbers, then a(b+c) = ab + ac.

Given:
p = 20% = 0.2, sample proportion
n = 5000, sample size.
Confidence level = 95%

The confidence interval is
(p - 1.96k, p + 1.96k)
where
$k=\sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }=\sqrt{ \frac{0.2*0.8}{5000}} =0.00566$

Therefore the 95% confidence interval is
(0.1943, 0.2057) = (19.4%, 20.6%)

Answer: The 95% confidence interval is (19.4%, 20.6%)
