Let the unknown consecutive integers be x, x+1

x+x+1=-95

2x+1=-95

2x=-95-1

2x=-96

x=-96/2

x=-48

x=-48

x=-48x+1=-48+1=-47

-48 and -47 are the two consecutive integers

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, write in simplest radical form.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

the length of the missing side is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 4

b = ?

c = 2sqrt5

4^2 + b^2 = (2sqrt5)^2

16 + b^2 = 20

subtract 16 from both sides

b^2 = 4

take the sqrt of both sides

b = 2

The population of a bacteria sample doubles every 6 hours. How long would it take for the population to triple?

seraphim [82]

The way to solve this question is to essentially reverse the equation I used in the other answer.

I would solve this with some theoretical values. If you start with 3, how long would it take for it to triple, or reach 9.

the equation would look like 9 = 3(2)^t/6, note how the instead of 1/2 it is now 2 in the parenthesis, as it doubles every 6 hours rather than halves every amount of hours.

When placed into an algebra calculator, the answer should be about 9.5 hours

In 1943, an organization surveyed 1100 adults and asked, "Are you a total abstainer from, or do you on occasion consume, alc

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

We conclude that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in 1943, an organization surveyed 1100 adults and asked, "Are you a total abstainer from, or do you on occasion consume, alcoholic beverages?"

Of the 1100 adults surveyed, 429 indicated that they were total abstainers. In a recent survey, the same question was asked of 1100 adults and 352 in

Let p = proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol.

where, p = $\frac{429}{1100}$ = 0.39

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p = 39% {means that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has not changed}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p $\neq$ 39% {means that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol = $\frac{352}{1100}$ = 0.32

n = sample of adults surveyed = 1100

So, test statistics = $\frac{0.32-0.39}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{1100} } }$

= -4.976

The value of z test statistics is -4.976.

Now, at 0.10 significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.645 and 1.645 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistics doesn't lie within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed.

Answer: Addition

Step-by-step explanation: You can represent that as 10^5*10^-5

If you add the exponent values, you get 10^0 which is equal to 1. If you multiply them, you get 10^-25 which is wrong.
