Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing these types of problems, the main goal is to get the variable by itself. Its kind of hard to explain with words so I will just use numbers.

15x + 14 = 149

(Subtract 14 on both sides. Remember, when you do something (Like subtracting, adding, etc.) on one side you have to do it to the other.)

15x + 14 = 149

-14 = -14

---------------------------

15x = 135

(Divide 15 on both sides. Since we need to use inverse operation to cancel the 15 out, we would divide 15 on both sides.)

15x/15 = 135/15

x = 9

Hope this helps :)

2 2/5 in kilometers in 3 3/4 minutes unit rate

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d = r * t Divide both sides by t

r = d / t

d = distance = 2.25 km

t = time = 3 3/4 minutes = 3.75 minutes

r = 2.25 / 3.75

r = 0.6 km / minute

r = 3/5 km / minute

If the units are different than those given, please state them underneath my answer. I'll get to it as soon as I see your comment.

I need the answers to these if you can’t read it it says “You drink 16 Fluid ounces of milk for breakfast every morning”.

Reika [66]

Answer: A. y = 16 x

B. 8 days

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Here, 16 Fluid ounces of milk is used for breakfast every morning.

In one day the consumption of milk = 16 fluid ounces

In x days the consumption of milk = 16 x fluid ounces

Thus, if y be the total milk in ounces that is used in x days,

The required function,

y = 16 x

B) In 1 day, consumption of milk = 16 ounces

⇒ $16\text{ ounces milk } = 1 \text{ day}$

⇒ $8\times 16\text{ ounces milk } = 8\times 1 \text{ day}$

⇒ $128\text{ ounces milk } = 8 \text{ day}$

Since, 128 ounces = 1 gallon

⇒ $1\text{ gallon milk } = 8 \text{ day}$

In 8 days, 1 gallon of milk will consumed.

At a local university, a sample of 49 evening students was selected in order to determine whether the average age of the evening

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

$z=\frac{23-21}{\frac{3.5}{\sqrt{49}}}=4$

$p_v =2*P(z>4)=0.0000633$

When we compare the significance level $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can reject the null hypothesis at 10% of significance. So the the true mean is difference from 21 at this significance level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=23$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=3.5$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=49$ sample size

$\mu_o =21$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.1$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the average age of the evening students is significantly different from 21, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 21$
