I'm not sure I understand your question, but I believe the answer you're looking for is 57632.
7+10x-2x-2=-3
—-Combine like terms...10x-2x=8x and 7-2=5
8x+5=-3
——subtract 5 on both sides.. the 5’s will cancel each other and -3-5=-8
8x=-8
——Divide 8 on both sides...the 8’s will cancel out and -8 divided by 8 = -1
Answer: x = -1
The answer would be 30%
Explanation~
Well, you would have to add 27 and 23 first since, it says, “What percentage of the twelfth grade students have more than one college in mind” then, you’d have to figure out the percentage from there. And the percentage would be, 29.4117647059% of 170, round that to the nearest percent and it’s 30 I’m pretty sure.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean = 81740
Standard deviation = 4590
Sample size = 15
Alpha level = 1-0.95 = 0.05
Df = 15-1 = 14
Critical value:
alpha/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.05
t0.025
t critical value = 2.145
Margin of error ME
2.145 x 4590/√15
2.145 x 4590/3.873
ME = 2542.09
Confidence interval
Lower CI = mean - ME
= 81740-2542.09
= 79197.91
Upper CI = mean + ME
= 81740+2542.09
= 84282.09
[ 79197.91, 84282.09]
B.
Using excel, exact answer for CI
Lower limit = 79198.142724212173
Upper limit = 84281.8572757827
C.
The assumptions to be made from the population are that
1. Samples are random
2. These samples are gotten from an approximately normal distribution
