What's an equivalent equation for -5(3-2x)

Mathematics
1 answer:
kobusy [5.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

-15 + 10x

or

10x - 15

(either one works)

Step-by-step explanation:

You mean you just want me to expand it?

Ok.

Multiply -5 by 3 and -2x.

(-5)(3) = -15

(-5)(-2x) = +10x

Add those together:

-15 + 10x

or

10x - 15

Jensen Tire & Auto is in the process of deciding whether to purchase a maintenance contract for its new computer wheel align
sasho [114]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The given data corresponds to the variables

Y:  Annual Maintenance  Expense ($100s)

X: Weekly Usage  (hours)

n= 10

∑X= 253; ∑X²= 7347; \frac{}{X}= ∑X/n= 253/10= 25.3 Hours

∑Y= 346.50; ∑Y²= 13010.75; \frac{}{Y}= ∑Y/n= 346.50/10= 34.65 $100s

∑XY= 9668.5

a)

To estimate the slope and y-intercept you have to apply the following formulas:

b= \frac{sumXY-\frac{(sumX)(sumY)}{n} }{sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} } = \frac{9668.5-\frac{253*346.5}{10} }{7347-\frac{(253)^2}{10} }= 0.95

a= \frac{}{Y} -b\frac{}{X} = 34.65-0.95*25.3= 10.53

^Y= a + bX

^Y= 10.53 + 0.95X

b)

H₀: β = 0

H₁: β ≠ 0

α:0.05

F= \frac{MS_{Reg}}{MS_{Error}} ~~F_{Df_{Reg}; Df_{Error}}

F= 47.62

p-value: 0.0001

To decide using the p-value you have to compare it against the level of significance:

If p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level you can conclude that the average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is modified when the weekly usage increases one hour.

b= 0.95 $100s/hours is the variation of the estimated average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is modified when the weekly usage increases one hour.

a= 10.53 $ 100s is the value of the average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine when the weekly usage is zero.

c)

The value that determines the % of the variability of the dependent variable that is explained by the response variable is the coefficient of determination. You can calculate it manually using the formula:

R^2 = \frac{b^2[sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} ]}{[sumY^2-\frac{(sumY)^2}{n} ]} = \frac{0.95^2[7347-\frac{(253)^2}{10} ]}{[13010.75-\frac{(346.50)^2}{10} ]} = 0.86

This means that 86% of the variability of the annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is explained by the weekly usage under the estimated model ^Y= 10.53 + 0.95X

d)

Without usage, you'd expect the annual maintenance expense to be $1053

If used 100 hours weekly the expected maintenance expense will be 10.53+0.95*100= 105.53 $100s⇒ $10553

If used 1000 hours weekly the expected maintenance expense will be $96053

It is recommendable to purchase the contract only if the weekly usage of the computer is greater than 100 hours weekly.

Twelve divided by the sum of x and 2 equals the quotient of 4 and the difference of x and 2. Find x.
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12/(x+2) = 4/(x-2)

Cross-multiply to get:

12x-24 = 4x+8

8x = 32

x = 4

An introductory psychology class with n=44 students has 9 freshman males, 15 freshman females, 8 sophomore males, and 12 sophomo
andrezito [222]

Answer:

0.61

Step-by-step explanation:

Pr (female) =  total number of females(n')/Total number of students(n)

Where P(female) = probability of selectinga female

Pr(female) = n'/n................. Equation 1

Given: n = 44 students, n' = 15+12 = 27 females

Substitute into equation 1

Pr(female) = 27/44

Pr(female) = 0.61.

Hence the probability of selecting a female is 0.61

An instructor wants to write a test with 25 questions where each question is worth 3, 4, or 5 points based on difficulty. He wan
irakobra [83]

ANSWER

Find out the how many 3, 4, and 5 point questions could there be.

To proof

Let us assume that the 3 points based question be = x

Let us assume that the 4 points based question be = y

Let us assume that the 5 points based question be = z

As given

An instructor wants to write a test with 25 questions

than the equation become in the form

x + y + z = 25

he quiz to be worth a total of 100 points.

than the equation is becomes

3x + 4y + 5z =100

As given

He wants the number of 3-point questions to be 4 less than the number of 4-point questions

x = y -4

Than the three equation are

x + y + z = 25 ,3x + 4y + 5z =100 and x = y -4

put  x = y -4 in the x + y + z = 25 ,3x + 4y + 5z =100

than

2y + z = 29, 7y +5z= 112

multiply 2y + z = 29 by 5 and subtracted 7y +5z= 112

10 y -7y + 5y -5y = 145 -112

3y = 33

y = \frac{33}{3}

y =11

put in the  x = y -4

x = 11-4

x= 7

put the value of x ,y in the x + y + z = 25

7 + 11 +z =25

18 +z = 25

z = 25 -18

z=7

therefore

numbers of the 3 point question be = 7

numbers of the 4 point question be = 11

numbers of the 5 point question be = 7

Hence proved
