Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AB + BC = AC

14 + 3x-4 = 4x+4

Combine like terms

10 +3x = 4x+4

Subtract 3x from each side

10+3x-3x = 4x+4-3x

10 = x+4

Subtract 4 from each side

10-4 =x-4+4

6 =x

We want AC

AC = 4x+4 = 4*6+4 = 24+4 = 28

Alexandra has $15 to buy drinks for her friends at the baseball game. Soda

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

write an equation for the costs:

if x is the number of sodas

and y is the number of waters

2.75x + 2y <= 15

(<= is less than or equal to)

if we substitute 3 for y

we get 2.75x + 2(3) <= 15

2.75x + 6 <= 15

2.75x <= 9

9 / 2.75 = 3.2727

however, you cannot buy part of a soda

so, round to 3

you also cannot buy negative sodas

so, the answer is C

The proportion of students who own a cell phone on college campuses across the country has increased tremendously over the past

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the uploaded image

Answer:

1 ) The correct option B

2) The correct option is C

3) The correct option is C

4) The correct option is C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The proportion that own a cell phone is $p = 0.90$

The sample size is n = 15

Generally the appropriate distribution for X is mathematically represented as

$X \ is \ B( n , p )$

$X \ is \ B( 15 , 0.90 )$

Generally the number students that own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is mathematically represented as

$\mu = n * p$

$\mu = 15 * 0.90$

$\mu = 13.5$

Generally the standard deviation of the number of students who own a cell phone in a simple random sample of 15 students is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \sqrt{ n * p * q }$

Where q is mathematically evaluated as

$q = 1- p$

$q = 1- 0.90$

$q = 0.10$

$\sigma = \sqrt{ 15 * 0.90 * 0.10 }$

$\sigma = 1.16$

Generally the probability that all students in a simple random sample of 15 students own a cell phone is mathematically represented as

$P(X = 15) = \left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} * p^{15} * q^{15 - 15}$

$P(X = 15) = \left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} * (0.90)^{15} * (0.10 )^{15 - 15}$

From the combination calculator is $\left 15} \atop {}} \right.C_{15} = 1$

$P(X = 15) = 1 * 0.205891 * 1$

$P(X = 15) = 0.206$

What number must be added to 15,-6, and 12 to have a mean of 5? Explain.

Genrish500 [490]

You need to add a -1

We can find this by setting up the equation like so

x + (-6) + 12 + 15 / 4 = 5

x + 21 = 20

x = 20 -21

x = -1

Now if we insert -1 where x is located in the equation, you will get a means of 5

How is number 0.000063 written in scientific notation?

katen-ka-za [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

The scientific notation:

$a\times10^k$

1 ≤ a < 10 and k - any integer number

$0.000063=0\underbrace{.00006}_{5\to}3=6.3\times10^{-5}\\\\\\0.000063=6.3:100,000=6.3:10^5=6.3\times10^{-5}$
