Answer:
x < 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x +8 < 18
Subtract 8 from each side
2x+8-8 < 18 -8
2x< 10
Divide by 2
2x/2 < 10/2
x < 5
Answer:
0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Sample size (n) = 1000
Positive lung cancer = 841
n(p) = 841, p(p) = 841/1000 = 0.841
n(1 - p) = 1000 - 841 = 159
1 - p = 0.159
95% confidence interval
For a 95% confidence interval : z = 1.96
P ± z√p(1-p) / n
0.841 ± 1.96 * √0.841(0.159) / 1000
0.841 - (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.818335344
0.841 + (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.863664656
0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366
Mrs. Smith donated $20
The constant proportionality is $1 because no matter what, Mrs. smith will donate $1 for each mile. So if Sam were to only walk 1 mile, mrs. smith would donate $1. Or seen as a 1:1 proportion.
The answer is 144m.
Volume of square pyramid formula:
V = 1/3 * b * h
1728 = 1/3 * b * 36
1728 = 12b
1728/12 = b
b = 144
Answer:
All real numbers; the simplification is described below.
Step-by-step explanation:
5(- 3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13
Let's keep in mind PEMDAS (the order of operations) to simplify and solve this. First, we'll distribute inside each set of parenthesis!
5(-3x) + 5(-2) -1(x) -1(-3) = -4(4x) -4(5) + 13
See how we've taken the outer term on the outside of the parenthesis and multiplied it to each term inside the parenthesis. Simplify further.
-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13
Now we can combine like terms! I will bold the terms I am combining.
-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the x terms on the left)
-16x - 10 + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the constants on both sides)
-16x - 7 = -16x - 7
Aha! It looks like we have an equation that's literally equal to itself. If we were to simplify this, or put in any number, we'd get that number equals itself. For example:
-16(1) - 7 = -16(1) - 7
-16 - 7 = -16 - 7
-21 = -21
Any number you put in here will make the equation true, so these lines must be the same line. That means the solution is all real numbers.
