Answer:

a = 6, b = - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the left side and compare the coefficients of like terms to those on the right side.

a(4x - 10) ← distribute parenthesis

= 4ax - 10a

Compare to 24x + 5b , then

4a = 24 ( divide both sides by 4 )

a = 6

Then

5b = - 10a = - 10(6) = - 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )

b = - 12

A rectangle is 9 ft long and 40 in. wide. What is its<br> area in square feet?

Bad White [126]

Answer:

29.97 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of rectangle = 9 ft

The width of rectangle = 40 in

We have to bring the length and width in same unit. As the area is required in square feet so we will convert width in feet

The width will be divided by 12 to be onverted into feet

So,

Width = 40/12 = 3.33 feet

Now

Area = Length * width

= 9 * 3.33

= 29.97 square feet ..

A scientist claims that 7% 7 % of viruses are airborne. If the scientist is accurate, what is the probability that the proportio

Reptile [31]

Answer:

The probability is $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 0.0040$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is $p = 0.07$

The mean of the sampling distribution is $\mu_p = 0.07$

The sample size is n = 600

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

$\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{p (1 -p)}{n} }$

=> $\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.07(1 -0.07)}{600} }$

=> $\sigma_p = 0.010416$

Generally the probability that the proportion of airborne viruses in a sample of 600 viruses would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3% is mathematically represented as

$P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - P(|p -\^{p}| \le 0.03)$

=> $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - P(-0.03 \le p -\^{p} \le 0.03 )$

Now add p to both side of the inequality

=> $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - P( 0.07-0.03 \le \^{p} \le 0.03+ 0.07 )$

=> $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - P(0.04 \le \^{p} \le 0.10 )$

Now converting the probabilities to their respective standardized score

=> $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - P(\frac{0.04 - 0.07}{0.010416} \le Z \le \frac{0.10 -0.07}{0.010416} )$

=> $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - P(-2.88 \le Z \le 2.88 )$

=> $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - [P(Z \le 2.88) - P(Z \le -2.88)]$

From the z-table

$P(Z \le 2.88) = 0.9980$

and

$P(Z \le -2.88) = 0.0020$

$P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 1 - [0.9980 - 0.0020]$

=> $P(|p-\^{p}| > 0.03) = 0.0040$

explain the pattern used to place the decimal in the answer when you multiply or divide a decimal by a power of 10

taurus [48]

All you are really doing is if you divide you are moving the decimal to the left and when you times you are moving the decimal to the right
