Which expressions are equivalent??
Brilliant_brown [7]

<u>Given</u>:

The given expression is 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)-3\left(\frac{1}{2} x-5\right)

We need to determine the equivalent expression.

<u>Option A:</u> -1

Solving the expression, we get;

\frac{3}{2} x+14-\frac{3}{2} x+15

Simplifying, we get;

14+15=29

Thus, the expression 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)-3\left(\frac{1}{2} x-5\right) is not equivalent to -1.

Hence, Option A is not the correct answer.

<u>Option B</u>: 29

Solving the expression, we get;

\frac{3}{2} x+14-\frac{3}{2} x+15

Simplifying, we get;

14+15=29

Thus, the expression 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)-3\left(\frac{1}{2} x-5\right) is equivalent to 29.

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

<u>Option C</u>: 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)+(-3)\left[\frac{1}{2} x+(-5)\right]

Let us rewrite the given expression.

2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)+(-3)\left[\frac{1}{2} x+(-5)\right]

Thus, the expression 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)-3\left(\frac{1}{2} x-5\right) is equivalent to 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)+(-3)\left[\frac{1}{2} x+(-5)\right]

Thus, Option C is the correct answer.

<u>Option D</u>: 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x\right)+2(7)+3\left(\frac{1}{2} x\right)+3(-5)

Rewriting the expression, we get;

2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)+(-3)\left[\frac{1}{2} x+(-5)\right]

Hence, the expression 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)-3\left(\frac{1}{2} x-5\right) is equivalent not to 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x\right)+2(7)+3\left(\frac{1}{2} x\right)+3(-5)

Thus, Option D is not the correct answer.

<u>Option E:</u> 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x\right)+2(7)+(-3)\left(\frac{1}{2} x\right)+(-3)(-5)

Multiplying the terms within the bracket, we get;

2\left(\frac{3}{4} x\right)+2(7)+(-3)\left(\frac{1}{2} x\right)+(-3)(-5)

Hence, the expression 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x+7\right)-3\left(\frac{1}{2} x-5\right) is equivalent to 2\left(\frac{3}{4} x\right)+2(7)+(-3)\left(\frac{1}{2} x\right)+(-3)(-5)

Thus, Option E is the correct answer.

The monthly amounts spent for food by families of four receiving food stamps approximates a symmetrical, normal distribution. Th
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

95% of monthly food expenditures are between $110 and $190.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The monthly amounts spent for food by families of four receiving food stamps approximates a symmetrical, normal distribution. The sample mean is $150 and the standard deviation is $20.

To find : Using the Empirical rule, about 95% of the monthly food expenditures are between which of the following two amounts?

Solution :

At 95% of the data is between two standard deviation to left and right of the mean is given by,

To the left side, \bar{x}-2\sigma

To the right side, \bar{x}+2\sigma

We have given,

The sample mean \bar{x}=\$150

The standard deviation \sigma=\$20

Substitute in the formula,

\bar{x}-2\sigma

=150-2(20)

=150-40

=110

\bar{x}+2\sigma

=150+2(20)

=150+40

=190

Therefore, 95% of monthly food expenditures are between $110 and $190.
