Answer:

1. 2x+2-(2x-14)=5x+2

0x+16=5x+2

16=5x+2

14=5x

14/5=x or 2.8=x

2. 2x+10-(-2x+7)=-7x+14

4x+3=-7x+14

11x+3=14

11x=11

x=1

1) x=2.8

2) x=1

Step-By-Step:

Q1) 2x + 2 - (2x - 14) = 5x + 2

Simply the expression

2x+2-2x+14=5x+2

collect like terms

(2x-2x) + (2+14) = 5x+2

simplify

16= 5x+2

swap sides

5x+2=16

-2 -2

5x=16-2

5x=14

to get x on its own we divide each side by 5 so

5x=14

÷5 ÷5

x= 2.8

Q2) 2x + 10 - (-2x + 7) = -7x + 14

Simply the expression

2x+10+2x-7= -7+14

collect like terms

(2x+2x)+(10-7)= -7+14

simplify

4x+3=7

-3 -3

4x+3-3=7-3

simplify

4x=7-3

4x=4

to get x on its own divide each side by 4 so...

4x=4

÷4 ÷4

x=1

Hope this helped- have a good day bro cya)

Can someone help me with graphing this function?

Paul [167]

p.s. Excuse the scribble.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a piece-wise function. The three intervals we need to worry about are [0, 1), [1,2], and [2,4].

Separate the functions into their pieces and draw out the individual graphs. Place them together onto the graph within their respective intervals.

Construct the confidence interval for the population mean mu. c = 0.90, x = 16.9, s = 9.0, and n = 45. A 90% confidence inte

Georgia [21]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for population mean is $14.7 < \mu < 19.1$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample mean is $\= x = 16.9$

The confidence level is $C = 0.90$

The sample size is $n = 45$

The standard deviation

Now given that the confidence level is 0.90 the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as

$\alpha = 1-0.90$

$\alpha = 0.10$

Next we obtain the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ from the standardized normal distribution table. The values is $Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.645$

The reason we are obtaining critical values for $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ instead of that of $\alpha$ is because $\alpha$ represents the area under the normal curve where the confidence level 1 - $\alpha$ (90%) did not cover which include both the left and right tail while $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is just considering the area of one tail which is what we required calculate the margin of error
