Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Add 5 to both sides

x = 6

Add 3 to both sides
x = -15 +3
x = -12
Answer:
19 beers must be sampled.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our
level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of
.
That is z with a pvalue of
, so Z = 1.645.
Now, find the margin of error M as such

In which
is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
The population standard deviation for the temperature of beers found in Scooter's Tavern is 0.26 degrees.
This means that 
If we want to be 90% confident that the sample mean beer temperature is within 0.1 degrees of the true mean temperature, how many beers must we sample?
This is n for which M = 0.1. So






Rounding up:
19 beers must be sampled.
2/3 is your answer to the question
It is always important to go through the given problem first to get a concept of the requiremement. Then all the information's available from the question has to be noted down in such a manner that there would be no need to look at the question while solving.
Total number of students wearing jeans = 10
Total number of students wearing shorts = 9
Total number of students wearing capris = 2
Then the total number of students surveyed by Mrs Lane = (10 + 9 + 2)
= 21
Now percentage of students wearing shorts = (9/21) * 100
= (3/7) * 100
= 300/7
= 42.85 percent
So a total percentage of 42.85% of the students were wearing shorts.
Replace x with |4x|+5 and simplify
