Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

BD=DC

5x-26=2x+1

5x-2x=1+26

3x=27

x=9

BC=2x+1

=2*9+1

BC =19

so AB=AC-BC

AB=43-19

AB=24

How do I find the area of this shape
vazorg [7]
There's two ways, you can either multiply 11 and 7 to get 77 and then divide by 2, OR, you can divide 11 by 2 and get 5.5 and multiply that by 7, hope this makes sense, if you don't understand just comment and I'll explain it more :)

A self proclaimed psychic was tested for ESP. The psychic was presented with 200 cards face down and asked to determine if the c
swat32

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval would be given (0.172;0.288).  

We are confident at 95% that the true probability that the psychic correctly identifies the symbol on the card in a random trial is between (0.172;0.288).  

We can conclude that her random guessing would have got her correct 20% of the time. Since the confidence interval contains 0.2, she has no psychic powers, rather she just guessed it like normal people. Any person could have got it correct this many times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

Description in words of the parameter p

p represent the probability that the psychic correctly identifies the symbol on the card in a random trial

\hat p represent the estimated probability that the psychic correctly identifies the symbol on the card in a random trial

n=200 is the sample size required  

z_{\alpha/2} represent the critical value for the margin of error  

The population proportion have the following distribution  

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

Numerical estimate for p

In order to estimate a proportion we use this formula:

\hat p =\frac{X}{n} where X represent the cases successful

\hat p=\frac{46}{200}=0.23 represent the estimated probability that the psychic correctly identifies the symbol on the card in a random trial

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for a proportion is given by this formula:

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}  

For the 95% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2=0.025, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.  

z_{\alpha/2}=1.96  

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:  

0.23 - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{200}}=0.172  

0.23 + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{200}}=0.288  

And the 95% confidence interval would be given (0.172;0.288).

We are confident at 95% that the true probability that the psychic correctly identifies the symbol on the card in a random trial is between (0.172;0.288).  

We can conclude that her random guessing would have got her correct 20% of the time. Since the confidence interval contains 0.2, she has no psychic powers, rather she just guessed it like normal people. Any person could have got it correct this many times.

X + one over two(6x − 4) = 6
Maurinko [17]

The given equation is:

x+\frac{1}{2} (6x-4)=6.

Multiplying both sides by 2 we have:

2x + 6x − 4 = 12 [ multiplication property of equality]

Combining like terms:

8x-4=12

Adding 4 both sides

8x=16.[Addition property of equality]

Dividing both sides by 8:

x=2 [Division property of equality.]

The correct option in which the equation is solved are : B. Multiplication property of equality. 2. Combine like terms. 3. Addition property of equality. 4. Division property of equality.

Zoe used 3/8 of her ribbon to wrap a present. If she uses 9 feet of ribbon for the present how much ribbon did Zoe have it first
MArishka [77]

Let the total ribbon Zoe had was x feet.

Out of x feet, she used 3/8 part of it.

Hence, \frac{3x}{8}

3/8 part of the original ribbon is equal to 9 feet.

Hence, we get

\frac{3x}{8} = 9

=> Multiply 8 on both sides.

3x=72

Divide both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{72}{3}

x=24 ft

Zoe had 24 feet of ribbon in starting... Answer
