Answer:

P = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

For the equation to have no solutions the the coefficient of x on both sides must be the same.

5 - 3x = Px + 7 ← P = - 3 , then

5 - 3x = - 3x + 7 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

- 3x = - 3x + 2 ( add 3x to both sides )

0 = 2 ← not possible

Meaning the equation has no solutions

2a. According to a Pew Research survey, about 25% of American adults are pessimistic about the future of marriage and the family

drek231 [11]

Answer: 0.4181807

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that American adults are pessimistic about the future of marriage and the family: p= 0.25

Sample size n= 20

Let $\hat{p}$ be the sample proportion of American adults that are pessimistic about the future of marriage and the family.

$P(\hat{p}\leq0.23)=P(\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$

Hence, the required probability = 0.4181807
