Answer:

75 is 50 percent of 150.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a pretty simple concept. First of all for this question, you should have noticed that 75 is half of 150. 50% is equal to 1/2.

There are a couple of methods you could use to solve this problem, if you are using a calculator, a simple way to solve percentage problems is to do 75 divided by 150 (in this case) which gives you 0.50.

If you do not have a calculator and you have to do this on paper, you need to do the classic proportion method. Make two fractions, 75 over 150, and x over 100. (x is what is used to represent an unkown amount.)

We are using over 100 because that is what a percent represents: an amount that is a fraction of 100. now you need to cross multiply. That would be 75 x 100. That equals 7,500. Now cross multiply the other way. That is 150x or represent 150 times x. Now solve the equation 150x = 7,500. To solve this you need to isolate the variable, x by dividing the 150 multiplying the x. That is the coefficient. the attached number next to it. After you do that, you need to divided the other side of the equation by 150. 7,500 divided by 150 equals 50.

After that you will find that the equation shows the value x = 50. You have now found the value of x.

I hope this helps :)

What is the value of x in the equation 13 x minus 2 (8 + 5 x) = 12 minus 11 x?

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Convert words into an expression

What is the value of x in the equation 13 x minus 2 (8 + 5 x) = 12 minus 11 x?

13x - 2(8 + 5x) = 12 - 11x

Step 2: Distribute

13x - 2(8 + 5x) = 12 - 11x

13x - 16 - 10x = 12 - 11x

Step 3: Solve for x

13x - 16 - 10x + 11x + 16 = 12 - 11x + 11x + 16

14x / 14 = 28 / 14

x = 2

Answer: x = 2

valina [46]

For this study, we should use t-test and the null and alternative hypotheses would be given by H₀: μ = 7 and H₁: μ < 7.
The test statistic is -1.941 and the p-value (0.0381) is greater than α = 0.01.
Based on this, we should fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Thus, the final conclusion is that the data suggest the population mean is not significantly lower than 7 at α = 0.01, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population mean waiting time to be admitted into the hospital from the emergency room for patients at rural hospitals is equal to 7 hours.

<h3>What is a null hypothesis?</h3>

A null hypothesis (H₀) can be defined the opposite of an alternate hypothesis (H₁) and it asserts that two (2) possibilities are the same.

<h3>How to calculate value of the test statistic?</h3>

The test statistics can be calculated by using this formula:

$t=\frac{x\;-\;u}{\frac{\delta}{\sqrt{n} } }$

Where:

x is the sample mean.

u is the mean.

is the standard deviation.

n is the number of hours.

For this study, we should use t-test and the null and alternative hypotheses would be given by:

H₀: μ = 7

H₁: μ < 7

$t=\frac{6.3\;-\;7}{\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{13} } }\\\\t=\frac{-0.7}{\frac{1.3}{3.6056 } }$

t = -0.7/0.3606

t = -1.941.

For the p-value, we have:

P-value = P(t < -1.9412)

P-value = 0.0381.

Therefore, the p-value (0.0381) is greater than α = 0.01. Based on this, we should fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Thus, the final conclusion is that the data suggest the population mean is not significantly lower than 7 at α = 0.01, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population mean waiting time to be admitted into the hospital from the emergency room for patients at rural hospitals is equal to 7 hours.
