Answer:

-1.25 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 10 = -13x

Add 5x to each side

-5x + 10+5x = -13x+5x

10 = -8x

Divide by -8

10/ -8 = -8x/-8

-5/4 =x

-1.25 =x

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The following figures are similar. Similar means they are the same shape with the same angles. They aren't congruent and only similar because they are different sizes. If you dilate the smaller rectangle, you can make the larger one.

Answer:

The first term indicates that the 14 student council members each handed out 22 flyers per additional minute of the fair. The second term indicates that the 14 members each handed out 25 flyers during the first minute of the fair.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The expression below represents the number of flyers handed out at the school fair by 14 members of the student council, where x is the number of minutes after the first minute of the fair. Assume that each student council member handed out the same number of flyers throughout the fair.

Expression : 14(22x) + 350

To Find: Interpret the meaning of each term in the expression.

Solution:

14 denotes the number of members

x is the number of minutes after the first minute of the fair

22 denotes each handed out 22 flyers per additional minute of the fair.

$350 =25 \times 14$ denotes each handed out 25 flyers during the first minute of the fair.

So, option A is true .

Answer:

2.083 < µ1 - µ2 < 5.917

Step-by-step explanation:

We will need to construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference of 2 means where the populations are normally distributed, and their variances are equal.

The calculations of the sample means and standard deviations are done for us.

Sample 1: Catalyst 1

n = 12, x = 85, s = 4

Sample 2: Catalyst 2

n = 10, x = 81, s = 5

See attached photo for the construction of the confidence interval...
