butalik [34]
3. 140= 3x +x
140= 4x
140/4 = 4x/4
35=x
3x= 35 * 3
3x= 105
The length is 105 ft

4. Number of dimes= d and number of quarters=q
d+q= 27
10d + 25q= 405
d= 27-q
10(27 -q) +25 q= 405
270 -10q + 25q= 405
270 + 15q= 405
15q= 135
q=9
d + q= 27
d +9=27
d=18
She has 18 dimes

The test statistic of z equals negative 1.37 is obtained when testing the claim that p equals1 divided by 4. a. Using a signific
spin [16.1K]

Answer: a) critical value = 0.0853, b) we reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

z = -1.37

And the hypothesis are given below:

H_0:p=\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25\\\\H_1:p\neq 0.25

Since α = 0.01

since critical value = 0.0853

As we can see that 0.853 < 0.25.

so, we reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, a) critical value = 0.0853, b) we reject the null hypothesis.

X^3-8/x-2<br> simplify and I need an explanation please
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: x^2+2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression given in the exercise is:

 \frac{x^3-8}{x-2}

If you descompose the number 8 into its prime factors, you get that:

8=2*2*2=2^3

Therefore, you can rewrite the numerator of the expression as following:

=\frac{(x^3-2^3)}{(x-2)}

For this exercise you need to remember that for a  Difference of cubes:

a^3-b^3=(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)

Then, applying this, you get:

=\frac{(x-2)(x^2+2x+2^2)}{(x-2)}=\frac{(x-2)(x^2+2x+4)}{(x-2)}

Now, it is necessary to remember the following:

\frac{a}{a}=1

Knowing the above, you can say that:

\frac{(x-2)}{(x-2)}=1

Therefore applying this, you get that the simplified expression is:

=x^2+2x+4
